Supported by expert engineering, fabrication, installation, maintenance, and technical support services, our solutions help recycling facilities reduce downtime, improve efficiency, and maximise resource recovery.

Why Magnetic Separation Matters in Recycling

Recycling facilities process large volumes of mixed materials that often contain valuable ferrous metals alongside non-ferrous and non-metallic materials.

Increase Material Recovery Rates

Magnetic separation helps increase material recovery rates by efficiently removing and recovering ferrous metals from mixed recycling streams.

Improve Product Purity and Quality

Correctly specified magnetic systems improve product purity and quality by removing unwanted ferrous contamination.

Reduce Waste Sent to Landfill

Effective recovery systems help reduce waste volumes sent to landfill by separating recoverable materials from mixed streams.

Protect Processing Equipment

Magnetic separation protects shredders, crushers, conveyors, and downstream processing equipment from damaging metal contamination.

Improve Operational Efficiency

Magnetic systems improve operational efficiency by supporting continuous, reliable material separation.

Reduce Maintenance Costs and Downtime

Removing tramp metal helps reduce maintenance costs, equipment damage, and unplanned downtime.

Increase Profitability Through Metal Recovery

Recovering valuable ferrous metals can increase profitability and improve overall resource recovery.

Enhance Plant Safety and Reliability

Magnetic separation enhances plant safety and reliability by reducing dangerous metal contamination throughout the process.

Common Recyclable Materials Processed

Recycling facilities commonly process mixed material streams that require reliable separation and recovery systems.

Ferrous Scrap Metal

Ferrous scrap metal can be recovered from mixed recycling streams to increase material value.

Steel Cans

Steel cans are commonly recovered from municipal, packaging, and mixed waste streams.

Automotive Scrap

Automotive scrap often contains valuable ferrous components that can be recovered with magnetic separation.

Electronic Waste

Electronic waste, also known as E-Waste, can contain steel components requiring recovery before downstream processing.

Construction and Demolition Waste

Construction and demolition waste can contain steel reinforcement, wire, nails, and other ferrous materials.

Plastic Recycling Streams

Plastic flakes, pellets, and reprocessed materials require metal removal to improve final product quality.

Glass Recycling Streams

Glass recycling streams benefit from ferrous contamination removal to improve material purity.

Municipal Solid Waste

Municipal solid waste streams often contain recoverable ferrous metals and mixed contaminants.

Packaging Materials

Packaging materials can include ferrous components that require recovery and separation.

Industrial Scrap

Industrial scrap streams often contain valuable ferrous materials that can be recovered and reused.

Core Applications
