High-quality Aluminium UBC Scrap (Used Beverage Cans) is a premium-grade recycled aluminum material sourced from post-consumer beverage cans. This sought-after scrap is widely used in secondary aluminum production, smelting, and ingot manufacturing due to its excellent purity, consistent composition, and high recovery rate.
Key Features & Benefits:
- High Purity — Typically 98–99.9% aluminum content with minimal impurities (Fe ~0.3–0.35%, Si ~0.2–0.6%, Cu ~0.1%, Mg ~0.3–0.9%, and trace elements).
- Clean & Processed — Magnetically separated to remove steel/iron; free from contaminants like plastic, paper, lead, glass, dirt, grease, foil, rubber, batteries, or any hazardous materials.
- Environmentally Friendly — 100% recyclable post-consumer material that supports circular economy practices, reduces energy use by up to 95% compared to primary aluminum production, and lowers carbon footprint.
- Reliable & Consistent — Low moisture (<4%), no infestation, and uniform quality for efficient melting and decoating processes.
- Versatile Applications — Ideal for producing new aluminum cans, automotive parts, construction materials, extrusions, and other wrought aluminum products.
Packaging & Specifications (Standard ISRI TALDON / Equivalent):
- Form — Compressed into secure bales or densified biscuits.
- Density — 14–25 lbs/ft³ (225–400 kg/m³) for bales; higher for densified forms.
- Bale Size — Approximately 24–40″ × 30–52″ × 40–72″ (or equivalent metric), minimum 30 cubic feet.
- Binding — Secured with 4–6 steel bands or wires for safe handling, stacking, and transport.
- Weight per Bale — Typically 400–1000 kg, depending on density and customer requirements.
- No unacceptable items — Strictly no briquettes >55 lbs/ft³, attached plastics (caps/labels), food cans >10%, or any prohibited contaminants.
This aluminium UBC scrap meets or exceeds major industry standards (ISRI, smelter specs from Novelis, Arconic, Logan, etc.) and is ready for immediate processing in modern recycling facilities.
