Turn Your Brass & Bronze Scrap into Value

B

Brass

Discarded Brass is a gem in disguise — it can be turned into huge value by refining and recycling the 'seemingly worthless' alloy, which can produce:

  • Industrial Materials
  • Machinery Parts
  • Decorative Figures
  • Valves and door handles
B

Bronze

Bronze, on the other hand, is used to produce a variety of durable products. Recycling bronze is a great way to obtain high quality products from it, such as

  • Marine Hardware
  • Bearings
  • Coins
  • Industrial Parts

Therefore, recycling brass & bronze is a great investment to get good products as a result.

Why Brass & Bronze Should Never go to Landfill

Brass and bronze should never go to landfill because these valuable alloys are 100% recyclable and can be reused without losing their strength or quality. Throwing them away wastes important metals like copper, zinc, and tin, while increasing landfill and environmental strain. Henceforth, such precious alloys must be recycled instead of being permanently lost.

FAQs

Brass & Bronze Recycling FAQs

Common questions about brass and bronze grading, pricing, and mixed loads

How can I tell the difference between brass and bronze before bringing them in?

Brass is typically yellow-gold in colour and is used in plumbing fittings, taps, and valves. Bronze has a more reddish-brown tone and is common in marine hardware, bearings, and industrial components. If unsure, our team will identify and grade both on arrival.

Do you accept old plumbing fixtures, taps, and valves made of brass?

Yes. Old taps, valves, fittings, connectors, and any plumbing brass are all accepted. These are common brass sources from renovations, plumbing upgrades, and commercial fit-outs.

What's the current scrap brass price per kg in Melbourne?

Brass prices follow live market rates and vary by grade and purity. Contact us or bring your material in for a current quote — we price fairly based on the LME copper benchmark since brass is a copper-zinc alloy.

Can I bring in a mixed load of brass and bronze together?

Yes. We sort and grade the alloys on-site, so you don't need to separate them beforehand. However, pre-sorted loads can sometimes result in slightly better rates as grading is more straightforward.
