Circular Economy & Metal Recycling UK

Discover how Chargentum is advancing a circular economy through recycled and sustainable metals in the UK.

Case Study: Energy Savings with UK Steel Reclaimer

We play an active role in the circular economy for metals by recycling and reprocessing metal scrap to extend material lifecycles and reduce waste. By recovering ferrous and non-ferrous metals at end-of-life and returning them into production, we significantly lower energy use and emissions compared to primary metal production.

This commitment to metal recycling UK helps customers decrease their environmental impact and supports national goals for circular resource management. Through our recycling programmes and waste reduction initiatives, valuable metals are diverted from landfill and reused in new products, conserving natural resources and cutting greenhouse gas emissions.

By integrating recycled content into our supply chain, we offer clients sustainable material options that align with environmental targets and enhance supply resilience — a key advantage for companies seeking eco-responsible metal supply solutions.

A collaboration with a UK steel reclaimer allowed efficient re-melting of mixed scrap metals, helping a manufacturing client save 60% energy in producing recycled steel components.

Our site-wide energy monitoring program also identified peak energy usage hotspots, and implementing adjustments reduced energy consumption by over 15%, demonstrating measurable operational sustainability.
