How To Dispose Of Metal Swarf Safely
Disposing of metal swarf safely requires specialised handling, especially when it comes to materials with sharp edges, flammable properties, or those that are chemically reactive.
Certain swarf types — particularly reactive metals like magnesium and titanium — can pose fire or health risks if not handled correctly.
Our waste collection service includes secure containment, safe transport, and full compliance with environmental regulations. We provide appropriate containers, guidance, and documentation to ensure your business remains fully compliant and protected during swarf disposal.
By partnering with National Recycling, you ensure that your machining operations not only run efficiently but also meet high standards of environmental responsibility.
