Got scrap metal?
Turn your unwanted metal into value at your local InfraBuild recycling yard.
Keeping steel in use.
Metal recycling is where InfraBuild's circular steelmaking process begins.
Across our Australian recycling network, we collect and process ferrous and non-ferrous metals from households, businesses and industries.
Each year, around 1.4 million tonnes of scrap metal moves through our recycling operations, with processed steel scrap supplying our electric arc furnace steelmaking operations in Sydney and Melbourne.
By connecting recycling with Australian steel manufacturing, we help keep valuable materials in use and reduce the need for virgin raw materials.
Our non-ferrous metals business also supplies selected domestic and international recycling markets.
~1.4
million tonnes of scrap metal recycled each year.

From scrap to new steel.
Again and again.
Steel can be recycled repeatedly without losing its inherent properties, making scrap an important resource for the next generation of Australian steel.
Our integrated supply chain connects metal recycling with steel manufacturing. Scrap steel is collected and processed through our recycling network before being supplied to our electric arc furnaces, where it can be transformed into new steel products for Australian construction and industry.

From household drop-offs to large industrial recycling programs, we provide safe, efficient and transparent metal recycling solutions tailored to different customer needs.
