Copper Processing
What is Copper Wire Processing?
We buy insulated copper wire from dealers, manufacturers, and utility companies all around the country.
Our copper processing line strips your wires of their insulation and then separates your metals by grades. After that, the pure copper is cut into little bits and pieces called copper chops.
Then, magnets take out contaminants. The copper chops are melted down. We even have a lab on-site at the facility to test the purity of copper.
