Shredded Steel Scrap

Shredded Steel Scrap is a form of ferrous scrap that has been mechanically reduced to fist-sized fragments. This process is typically performed by large shredding machines that tear apart whole objects like automobiles, household appliances, and other steel-containing goods. The resulting material is a dense, uniform product that is free from most non-metallic contaminants due to magnetic separation. The consistent size and high density of shredded scrap make it a highly efficient and desirable feedstock for steel mills. It is a major component of the scrap metal market and is used to produce new steel products for various industries.
