CopperCopper is a routinely recycled metal which has the highest scrap value of any building metal. The scrap is melted down and re-formed into a new product such as copper roofing, which contains 75 percent scrap, of which nearly 50 percent comes from discarded consumer products.   
Much of the copper used in the world comes from recycled sources. This is a significantly higher percentage than is the case for aluminum, which is often regarded as the benchmark metal for recycling effectiveness.
Recycling is an important economic activity with significant environmental benefits. Not only does recycling copper result in more efficient use of natural resources, it also results in energy savings and a reduction of waste sent to landfills. Because copper can be reused, the wealth of this natural resource can be preserved for future generations.
Common uses of Recycled Copper: - Electrical Wire
- Cooking Pots & Pans
- Pipes & Tubes
- Automobile Radiators
