Processing
From scrap to secondary raw material.
At R Davies Metals & Sons Ltd, processing is at the heart of what we do. We don’t just move scrap from A to B — we use modern machinery and proven systems to transform waste into valuable, reusable resources.
We operate from our Kingswinford base, where our site is equipped to handle everything from single-grade metals to large mixed loads. Our core processing services include:
Sorting & grading of ferrous and non-ferrous metals for accurate valuation.
Shearing, burning & baling to reduce volume and prepare materials for reuse.
Depollution systems for vehicles, batteries, and hazardous components.
Weighbridge services for certified weights and transparent payments.
Efficiency Through Technology
With a fleet of modern plant equipment and heavy-duty processing machinery, we streamline the scrap cycle:
1. Collection
Scrap delivered or collected from site.
2. Processing
Sorted, cut, shredded or baled to spec.
3. Output
Materials ready for UK resale or international export.
This efficiency means faster turnaround for our clients, maximum value recovery, and less waste to landfill.
