2X September successes
UK Metals Expo 2023
Earlier this month, we headed to The NEC in Birmingham, where we had the pleasure of taking part in the UK Metals Expo for the very first time.?
It was a fantastic couple of days and there were lots of exciting conversations to be had.

Here are our top three key takeaways from the event:
1. The common perception from within the industry - is that most recycled aluminium is exported (which it is).
2. We are leading the field in delivering on this perception – 80% of our post-consumer processed material is recycled in the UK, with the remaining 20% being recycled within Europe.
3. The UK Metals Expo is a key trade event – so much so, we’ve already put our name down for next year!
If you didn’t get chance to speak to us at the Expo, but would like to discuss your aluminium recycling requirements with us, email our Commercial Manager, Ed George, at [email protected]
