Copper Recovery System

At URT, our copper recovery systems utilize a copper chopper to maximum the recovery of copper and aluminum from discarded copper wires, cords, and cables. These systems allow us to both increase the quality of our post-shred outputs for wire and provides a solution for our customer’s wire, cords, and cables recycling needs.

The Importance of Recycling Copper Wire & Cords

Conservation of Natural Resources

Copper is a finite resource, and extracting it from the Earth requires significant energy and resources. By recycling copper wire and cords, we reduce the demand for newly mined copper, preserving the Earth’s valuable natural resources.

Energy Savings

Producing copper from recycled materials requires considerably less energy compared to mining and refining raw copper ore. Recycling copper wire and cords helps conserve energy and reduces the carbon footprint associated with the extraction and production processes.

Waste Reduction

Improper disposal of electronic waste, including copper wires and cords, can lead to environmental pollution. Recycling these materials prevents them from ending up in landfills, where they can pose a threat to soil and water quality.
