When buyers heat your scrap, organic material burns off or volatilizes, leaving behind ash that contributes to furnace waste, while nonmetallic contaminants such as sand and debris merge with oxides to form dross. To the foundries and mills buying your material, dross means a lower melt yield. If you're known for shipping dirty loads that kill a consumer's melt yield, your price will reflect it.

In our latest blog post, we break down how scrap polishing boosts product value, appeals to buyers, and maximizes your ROI.
