  • Latest News- Scrap Metal Recycling Market: Ferrous metals is expected to lead the Type segment during 2023-2027

    The Scrap Metal Recycling Market is being driven by Increase in prices of raw materials

    The Scrap Metal Recycling Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.15% during 2022 and 2027. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of 340.73 million t. The construction industry's historical reliance on asbestos for its buildings and infrastructure due to its desirable strength and insulation properties has led to a significant amount of asbestos-contaminated steel scrap. However, the health risks associated with asbestos, particularly during demolition and the subsequent release of fibers into the atmosphere, necessitate stringent regulations, such as those enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Consequently, market participants are exploring innovative methods to purify contaminated steel scrap, thereby expanding the scope of scrap metal recycling in the construction sector and propelling market expansion throughout the forecast period.
