Metalcorp NZ Ltd was established in 1989 and still operates as a family owned business from two branches within the South Island. During our 20 year history, we have earned a solid reputation as a professional recycling facility, conducting business with integrity and enthusiasm whilst providing competitive pricing for both our domestic and commercial customers.

The primary function at Metalcorp NZ Ltd is the collection and processing of ferrous and non ferrous metals. The recovery of scrap metals is an integral part of the recycling loop, and helps to conserve our country’s valuable natural resources. Scrap metal is an especially unique resource in that when it is recovered and recycled appropriately it has an almost never ending life cycle!

At Metalcorp NZ Ltd we work to convert scrap metals into the raw materials that other industries require to produce new products.We operate modern, efficient and professional scrap metal recycling yards that supply to both domestic and international markets. As long term members of the Scrap Metal Recycling Association of New Zealand we are committed to raising the standards within our industry and educating as to the important role that scrap metal recycling plays in helping to preserve our environment. Our friendly staff are highly skilled, and our combined experience allow us to ensure that the job is done right the first time, whilst offering our customers the assurance of stability, honesty and all the benefits of an on going service.

Metals are separated into one of two basic grades which are referred to in the scrap metal recycling industry as ferrous and nonferrous metals. Once a metal has been identified as one of these types, it is then further categorized into more specific grades for processing. We grade and process our metals according to international specifications which determine the price of the metal at the time of purchase.
