There are many advantages to recycling metal including environmental benefits as well as energy savings. Aluminum, steel, copper, brass, bronze, silver, and gold are metals that can be recycled. Recycling metal helps to reduce the amount of waste in landfills, and it also helps to conserve natural resources. The global recycled metal market is witnessing significant growth over the past few years. Rising concerns about scarcity of natural metal resources and growing environmental awareness among consumers and industries regarding benefits of recycling metals are expected to drive the market growth. Recycling metals helps to conserve natural resources and reduce pollution caused during raw material extraction and processing. It is estimated that recycling one metric ton of steel saves approximately 1,100 kg of iron ore, 630 kg of coal, and 55 kg of limestone. Recycling aluminum uses only 5% of the energy required to produce new aluminum from bauxite ore. Growing industrialization and urbanization in emerging economies have increased the volumes of metal waste, providing key opportunities for metal recycling companies to collect and process scrap metal. Stringent government regulations regarding waste management and landfill restrictions in several countries compel industries to focus on recycling and reuse of metals.
Environmental concerns, resource scarcity, regulatory support, cost savings, circular economy initiatives, technological advancements, consumer preference for sustainable products, corporate sustainability goals, infrastructure development, and innovation in applications are major factors that are expected to drive the global recycled metal market growth during the forecast period.
However, contamination concerns, inconsistent supply, technological limitations, and market price volatility & lack of infrastructure are expected to hamper the global recycled metal market growth over the forecast period.
