Australia in the Global Melting Scrap Trade
Australia's electric arc furnace mills in New South Wales and Victoria run on domestically collected scrap, while the country remains a consistent net exporter of both ferrous and non-ferrous material to Asian markets. Sims Limited, one of the world's largest metal recyclers, is headquartered in Sydney.
The non-ferrous side is anchored by primary aluminium smelting at Tomago and Portland, zinc and lead smelting in Tasmania and South Australia, and copper smelting in Queensland — alongside a national network of independent scrap processors.

📈 Metal Prices & Exchanges
Melting scrap itself does not trade on any exchange. Its price is calculated by traders against the underlying metal prices on the major exchanges, with adjustments for grade and condition. The links below lead to the official pages of the exchanges and price-reporting services most often referenced by the trade.
Philippine scrap has traditionally priced against East Asian containerized export benchmarks; growing domestic EAF demand increasingly sets local buying prices.
