By recycling metals, we conserve valuable natural resources (ores), reduce landfill waste, and protect the environment. Aluminium and steel do not lose their characteristic properties when recycled and can be recycled countless times with significant energy savings and reduced CO₂ emissions.

Disposal instructions
