steel scrap
Recycled iron alloy
Steel scrap is discarded steel material—old appliances, demolished structures, manufacturing offcuts—collected for recycling into new steel.
The steel industry relies heavily on scrap as feedstock, melting it down in furnaces rather than producing virgin metal from ore.
The yard pays by the ton for steel scrap.
