Metal Recycling Services

Comprehensive ferrous and non-ferrous metal scrap management — from industrial collection and processing to foundry-grade supply across India's steel and aluminium industries.

Maximising Value From Metal Scrap Across India's Industrial Economy

Metal recycling is one of the most economically and environmentally impactful forms of industrial recycling. Recycled steel requires 74% less energy than virgin steel production, while recycled aluminium saves 95% of the energy needed to produce primary aluminium from bauxite. India's metal recycling sector processes tens of millions of tonnes of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap annually, feeding the country's steel mills, secondary aluminium smelters, copper refineries and foundries with critical raw material inputs. Peak Idea Corporation LLP's Metal Recycling division connects industrial scrap generators with certified processors and buyers, optimising value recovery and ensuring regulatory compliance throughout the scrap supply chain.

Our metal recycling services cover the full range of ferrous metals — mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, alloy steel and pig iron — as well as all major non-ferrous metals including aluminium (cast, wrought, foil, extrusion), copper (wire, tube, sheet, mixed), brass, bronze, zinc, lead, nickel and titanium. We also handle specialty metals from electronic scrap including precious metals (gold, silver, palladium, platinum) from printed circuit boards, connectors and catalysts. Each metal stream is segregated, characterised by quality grade and routed to the most appropriate downstream buyer to maximise recovery value.

For industrial facilities managing large volumes of production scrap, Peak Idea offers integrated scrap management programmes that cover on-site scrap segregation training, weighbridge and measurement systems, scheduled collection, quality assessment and grading, competitive price benchmarking against LME and domestic indices and compliant invoicing and payment processing. We also assist facilities in maintaining proper scrap storage practices that comply with PCB requirements and reduce fire, theft and environmental risks associated with unmanaged metal scrap accumulation on industrial premises.

Why Partner With Peak Idea for Metal Recycling

Competitive Market Pricing

Our established network of steel mills, secondary smelters, foundries and metal traders ensures your scrap achieves competitive market pricing benchmarked against LME and Indian commodity indices with full price transparency.

Expert Grading & Segregation

Proper metal grading significantly increases scrap value. Our trained graders ensure your material is correctly identified and segregated, preventing revenue loss from misclassification and ensuring foundry buyers receive specification-grade material.

Flexible Collection Options

We arrange collection using appropriate transport — flatbed trucks, hook loaders, compactor vehicles — to match your scrap volumes, access constraints and collection frequency requirements across all major Indian industrial regions.

Price Benchmarking & Transparency

We provide regular market price updates and ensure all transactions are priced transparently against published commodity benchmarks, giving you confidence that you are achieving fair market value for your scrap materials.

ESG-Aligned Supply Chain

All downstream processors in our network operate with valid environmental consents, ensuring your scrap does not contribute to informal sector pollution. We provide recycling impact certificates quantifying CO2 savings for ESG reporting.

GST-Compliant Transactions

All scrap purchases and sales are conducted with proper GST documentation — purchase orders, weighment slips, e-way bills and tax invoices — ensuring your accounts team has clean, auditable scrap disposal records.

How We Manage Your Metal Scrap

01
Scrap Assessment & Programme Design

We conduct an on-site assessment of your scrap generation volumes, metal types, storage arrangements and collection frequency to design a customised scrap management programme that maximises your return and minimises operational disruption.

02
Segregation & Grading

Where required, our team assists with on-site segregation of mixed scrap into distinct metal streams and grades them against standard BIS or market specifications. Proper grading maximises the value realised for each metal category.

03
Collection & Weighment

Scheduled collection using appropriate vehicles, with weighment at a certified weighbridge, provides a transparent and auditable record of all material removed from your site. All collections are accompanied by proper documentation.

04
Processing & Buyer Matching

Collected scrap is processed as required — shredding, baling, cropping, or briquetting — and matched to the most appropriate end buyer based on grade, specification and current market pricing to maximise your return.

05
Payment & Documentation

Prompt payment against agreed price terms, with complete GST-compliant documentation package including tax invoices, weighment records and — where required for ESG reporting — recycling impact certificates quantifying environmental benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal grades do you deal in?
We deal in all standard ferrous grades — HMS 1 & 2, shredded scrap, busheling, plate and structural, cast iron, stainless steel grades (304, 316, 430) and alloy steel — as well as non-ferrous including copper grades (Birch, Berry, Cliff, Candy), aluminium grades (Taint/Tabor, Taldon, Toto) and brass (Honey, Ebony, Drink). We follow BIS and LME standard grading conventions.
How are scrap prices determined?
Ferrous scrap prices are primarily influenced by domestic steel demand, international scrap indices (CFR Turkey, LME), pig iron prices and regional supply-demand dynamics. Non-ferrous prices closely track LME spot prices with location and quality premiums or discounts. We provide real-time market intelligence and ensure all pricing is transparent and benchmarked against published indices.
Can you handle large industrial decommissioning scrap?
Yes. We manage large-scale industrial scrap arising from factory decommissioning, plant upgrades and infrastructure demolition — including heavy structural steel, pressure vessels, piping, electrical infrastructure and mixed industrial scrap. Our asset dismantling division works alongside metal recycling for comprehensive decommissioning projects.
Are your scrap transactions GST compliant?
Yes. All scrap purchase transactions are conducted with full GST compliance — including proper tax invoices, e-way bills for transport and TDS compliance under Income Tax provisions applicable to scrap dealers. We work exclusively with GST-registered processors and traders, ensuring clean documentation for your accounts and tax records.
Do you handle precious metal recovery from electronic scrap?
Yes. Printed circuit boards, connectors, plated components and catalyst materials from electronic and automotive scrap contain recoverable quantities of gold, silver, palladium and platinum. We route these materials to specialised precious metal refiners with full assay and settlement documentation, ensuring you receive fair value for these high-worth materials.
