These railcars will transport recycled metal from Alter Trading back to the very facility where the steel was produced.

For Alter, this is more than a fleet of new railcars. It represents the role recycled metal can play in creating the next generation of steel—with the material we recover today helping become the steel products of tomorrow.

From recycling facilities, to rail, to the steel mill and back again, this is what a circular economy looks like in practice.

We’re proud to be the customer putting these railcars to work—and even prouder of the role they will play in advancing a more sustainable steel supply chain.

If the garage, basement, or shed needs a reset before school starts, now’s a good time to scrap what you’re no longer using. Old bikes, shelving, broken tools, metal furniture—if it’s metal, we’ll take a look!

Start the school year with a little more space (and a little extra cash in your pocket).

This is because non-ferrous metals do not contain iron. Rust is a specific type of corrosion that only happens when iron reacts with oxygen and water.
