Circmet’s Low Energy Recycling (LER) uses patented screw-extrusion to transform scrap into high-grade metal products without ever hitting the melting point.
Traditional recycling is energy-hungry and wasteful. We bypass the furnace entirely. Using solid-state screw extrusion, we apply massive deformation forces to weld scrap into new products. You get primary-metal quality with a fraction of the carbon footprint.
Aluminium was only the start. LER is a versatile platform designed to handle a range of metals, paving way for everything from simple rods to complex profiles.
Our LER process is built for a vast range of high-spec profiles. A prime example is our 100% recycled aluminium wire rods. Created from end-of-life cables, our research so far confirms that this zero-melting method can meet the strict conductivity and strength demands of the electrical industry.
