Trading in Metal Scrap

One of the easiest ways to earn more money is by scrap metal trading. This not only helps you earn a good extra income, but also lets you help the environment. It is possible to recycle many different metals. You will also be surprised to know that the demand for scrap metal in Dubai has become so high that people land up stealing them from constructions sites, cars and other places. There is a lot of profit involved in this industry. But we must understand that recycling scrap metal can be done in a legal fashion as well.

The supply of metals is scarce, but by recycling we can not only bring down the scarcity, but also increase the supply. Recycling also saves time, energy, manpower and money. Metals like, aluminum, steel, copper, ferrous, lead and many more can be recycled and each of these quote a different price. The prices of these metals vary on a daily basis. The weight of the metal also determines the price.

Those who decide to get involved with metal scrap companies in Dubai as a part time business soon realize how easy this job is. Even if you don’t want to get involved deeply, you can always trade in the metal items lying around the house that you might have abandoned.

Recycling Copper Scrap

Copper and copper alloys have been recycled since many years.  Recycling copper scrap in Dubai had always been a normal and common economic practice. In the Middle ages, during times of war anything and everything made of copper was recycled to produce cannons.

Copper recycling in Dubai is very useful now-a–days as it is used for critical electrical applications like the production of superfine enameled wires, power cables, plumbing tubes, roofing sheets and heat exchangers as well. The presence of the slightest amount of impurities in a cable made of copper can lead to expensive failures and losses. Thus care has to be taken when using copper scrap to see that it is fully diluted with good quality copper.

When copper scrap is already associated with other metals, it is wiser to take advantage of the situation rather than removing the impurities through expensive refining procedures. Thus copper scrap used in this way becomes more economical.

High quality copper can be recycled by a simple process that involves checking, smelting and casting to the finished shape.  If the copper scrap is pure, a high quality product can be obtained from it. The more it is mixed with other metals, the more difficult it becomes to adjust its composition. And when it is contaminated beyond acceptable limits, it becomes necessary to re-refine it.

From scrap metals recyclingto aluminum alloy manufacturing in Dubai, our global company Lucky Group has been adding value to many recycling industries all over the world. Check our website at: www.luckygroup.com.

What can be recycled?

[caption id="attachment_34" align="aligncenter" width="462" caption="Image credit: www.genexe.com"]Image credit: www.genexe.com[/caption]

‘Going Green’ is the need of the hour. As opposed to what we might think, it is not difficult to become eco friendly in our little ways. Lets find out what are the things that can be recycled.

When you say ‘recycle’ most people think glass, plastic and paper. But the fact of the matter remains that almost everything you use can be recycled. Cardboard, paint, electronics, pesticides, rubber tube scrap and metals like aluminum scarp, copper scrap, ferrous scrap, stainless steel scrap, etc. can be taken to Dubai scrap yards and can be recycled. Recycling these items are important for many reasons. One of them is that items such as these contain toxic elements that are hazardous to human and animal health. If waste like this were to be left alone, they would also seep through the soil, polluting our underground water reserves.

It’s easy to find plastic, rubber or metal recycling companies in Dubai online. So the next time, before discarding off unused items, be sure to check for recycling companies or Dubai scrap yards and then go ahead and do the needful.

You can also get creative with being eco-friendly in one more way. Donating your old computer or your mobile to charitable organizations or to those who have none is also a step towards recycling.

Our organization, Lucky Group deals in metal recycling in Dubai but our operations are also located world over. Visit www.luckygroup.com for more information on scrap metals recycling in Dubai.

Why Recycle Rubber?

Image credit: www.geekologie.com

Rubber started becoming scarce during World War II, which lead to the process of vulcanization being developed. Thus the smart practice of recycling rubber began a long time ago. Consumption of natural rubber decreased during those times. Then by the nineties, the re-use rate of rubber started increasing tremendously. This boosted the rubber recycling industry which has been doing very well ever since. But this does not mean that rubber is being disposed off with care at every point of time.

Believe it or not, rubber tires are the most problematic sources of waste. Leaving rubber tube scrap lying around outdoors in Dubai city, among the garbage or in the scrap yards, is hazardous to the environment we thrive on. Piles of discarded rubber can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes, not forgetting to mention that they become a horrible site. Rubber tires discarded carelessly could even trigger fires. (Let’s nor forget that a fire triggered by rubber is also very hard to curb.) Fortunately, there is more than one recycling technique available to stop this potential hazard from taking place. The various rubber recycling techniques used by recycling companies in Dubai can be used to convert rubber scrap to crumb, viscous reclaim, oils, monomers or energy.

Along with catering to the scrap metal requirements of our customers in Dubai and other countries, Luck Group also recycles rubber tube scrap in Dubai. We serve local as well global needs. You may visit our website for contact details.

Aluminum for Packaging

Gone are the days when a can could only be opened by a can piercer. The pull-tab on beverage cans these days have increased the demand for aluminum packaging. Aluminum is a metal found in abundance in the earths crust. The best aspect of it is that, it is 100% recyclable. You should also know that only 5% out of the total energy used to produce new aluminum is consumed, when it is recycled by a metal recycling company in Dubai.

Recycling aluminum scrap in Dubai can also be inexpensive especially for the beverage industry. The beverage industry can easily benefit from recycling aluminum only if a plan is devised entailing how to collect aluminum and send it to the aluminum alloy manufacturers in Dubai. But before beginning the process, it is best for industries to find out the current recycling rates as the prices keep on fluctuating. Make a decision on whether it can be done by your own company or is it much more profitable to outsource the recycling and manufacturing work. There are also plenty of local charitable organizations in Dubai that may want to trade in aluminum cans for money.

Our metal recycling and alloy manufacturing company in Dubai called Lucky Group can always help you out with your intentions about recycling metals. Our scrap metal recycling interests are handled by Lucky Recycling and our esteemed associate, Fortune Metals.

“RECYCLE”

Image credit: people.howstuffworks.com

Recycling involves processing used materials into new products. Many things like glass, paper, metal, plastic, etc. are capable of being recycled. The main idea behind this process is to prevent wastage of useful material. Recycling also involves reducing the consumption of fresh raw materials, energy, water, etc. As a citizen of the world, we all must do our part in saving the natural resources as well as the raw materials available today, for a better future.
