We collect copper wires, cables, and more, ensuring they're processed efficiently. Your copper items become integral to future innovations, from electronics to infrastructure.




Brass: A Symphony of Reuse

Brass, a blend of copper and zinc, is a harmonious example of recycling's impact. At Derichebourg, we welcome your brass items, whose recycle properties can transform them into objects of both aesthetic and functional value. From musical instruments to everyday fixtures, your brass materials contribute to reducing waste and conserving resources.


Lead: Redefining Responsible Use

Lead's unique properties find their purpose in various applications, including radiation protection and automotive batteries. By recycling lead with us, you're participating in responsible resource management. Our recycling process ensures lead materials are handled with care and precision, embodying our commitment to environmental stewardship.


Stainless Steel: Durability Meets Sustainability

Stainless steel's durability and corrosion resistance make it an ideal candidate for recycling. When you bring your stainless steel items to Derichebourg, you contribute to a closed-loop cycle that preserves energy and resources. Our efficient recycling process ensures your stainless steel returns to the production cycle, reducing the need for virgin materials.




Zinc: Paving the Path to Progress

Zinc's versatility shines through its applications in galvanized steel and beyond. By recycling zinc with Derichebourg, you're actively supporting a circular economy. Our recycling facilities are equipped to process zinc products efficiently, allowing them to reintegrate into various industries, from construction to manufacturing.


How do we recycle?

Once the scrap metal is collected, sorted, and packaged according to steel mills, foundries, and other specialized processes, we ship the material worldwide by truck, rail, containers, and even deep sea vessels.
