| ThinkCans.com - Think Cans Aluminium Recycling - Home |
Recycling is a habit we have to get into. It makes sense and it’s getting easier to do. Many local councils now provide door step, or kerbside, recycling services and in some major cities there are companies helping to make recycling easy at work too.

What is Recycling?
To Recycle: Taking an unwanted material, processing it, then producing a useful product, again. Aluminum cans may be melted (processed), then reformed as aluminum cans or made into other aluminum products. Other examples include newspaper made into insulation, auto body steel made into bridge abutments, or milk jugs made into park benches.
Recycling is the reprocessing of materials that would otherwise become waste in order to make them into new products. This is in contrast with reuse: collecting waste such as food containers to be cleaned, refilled and resold. Recycling prevents waste being landfilled or incinerated, reduces the consumption of new raw materials, and is advocated by supporters to require less energy than virgin production[citation needed]. Commonly recycled materials include glass, paper, aluminium, asphalt, steel, textiles and plastic. These materials can be derived either from pre-consumer waste (materials used in manufacturing) or post-consumer waste (materials discarded by the consumer).
Recycling is a key concept of modern waste management and is the third component of the waste hierarchy. To be recycled waste has to be sorted and separated. Waste sorting can be done by the householder who leaves materials for recycling at the front of their property, typicially in boxes or sacks to be collected by a recycling vehicle. This is described as a kerbside collection system. Alternatively the householder sort their waste for recycling by taking the materials to recycling banks (described as a 'bring system'). Sorting in a mechanised manner takes place at a materials recovery facility which may sort materials already identified for recycling or unsorted waste. In everyday speech the word recycling often refers to the practice of waste sorting done by consumers. |
