Recycling scrap metal is an enormous business across the United States. From the
56 billion aluminum cans recycled last year, to the millions of tons of ferrous
and non-ferrous metals sorted, sheared, shredded, torched and baled at
processing plants, the metal recycling business is booming. Compactors play an
important role in this recycling process. This is because achieving higher
density during compaction equates to larger loads that can be transported from
processing plants to steel mills, saving processers money.
SP makes long
lasting, fast cycling pre-crushers and metal compactors designed to maximize
efficiency and reliability. Our systems can include fluid collection systems
designed to separate oil from metal turnings and chips. Also, our closed
compaction containers eliminate the potential for ground water contamination in
and around metal processing areas. Most importantly, our equipment is backed by
the best warranty in the industry and our engineers can address any
site-specific installation concerns.
