NEW YORK, Oct. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Introduction

Scrap metals such as copper, steel, aluminum, brass, and iron can be reused various times to make new products. Recycling of scrap metal reduces the amount of waste produced, preventing the need for additional mining to obtain new metals for manufacturing purposes. After recycling, such scrap metals can be used for a variety of applications in, both homes and manufacturing industries.

Metal recycling is a foolproof solution for managing metal scraps. The quality or quantity of metals is not altered even after high reuse. The increase in use of metals in end-use industries leads to the depletion of natural metal resources. Metal recycling involves the use of scrap or waste metal resources as raw material and converts them to usable products. Metal scraps are majorly categorized under two categories – ferrous that are made of iron and its compounds; and non ferrous that includes all other recyclable metals other than iron.

The metal recycling process is a cutting-edge technology for reusing metals that have been once used and scrapped. Metal recycling offers environmental benefits regarding energy savings, reduced volumes of waste, and reduced emissions associated with energy savings. Moreover, the process is a solution for managing metal waste, which contributes to around 30% of total solid waste per year. The metal recycling process seeks advantage of the strong government and industrial support to optimize their use and increase their lifespan.
The global metal recycling market is mainly driven by various factors, such as rise in awareness about energy conservation and natural resources, increase in demand for beverage cans, and decreased greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, industrialization and urbanization in developing nations have created an opportunity for market growth during the forecast period.

For the purpose of study, the market has been segmented on the basis of metal type, scrap metal, end-user and region. On the basis of Metal Type, in 2017, Ferrous held the larger share of the global metal recycling market. On the basis of scrap metal, the market has been segmented as old scrap and new scrap. Old scrap has dominated the market. On the basis of end user, the construction segment has dominated the market during the forecast period.
The global metal recycling market is expected to progress at 8.04% CAGR during the forecast period. In 2017, the market was led by Asia-Pacific, with a 35.6% share, followed by Europe and North America with shares of 29.0% and 19.3%, respectively.
