Metal recycling has become a strategic issue, both economically and environmentally. For players in the PACA region, and more specifically in the Plaine du Var, having a reliable partner for scrap metal buy-back is essential. Sclavo Eco-Relais, located in the heart of the Zone Industrielle de Carros, is the local leader for all your scrap metal buy-back needs. Whether you’re a builder, an industrialist or a resident of Gattières, Le Broc or Saint-Jeannet, our 12th Street center offers you a professional infrastructure dedicated to sorting performance.
Why choose a certified scrap metal dealer in Carros?
Calling on a professional scrap metal dealer in Carros is more than just getting rid of old junk. It’s about compliance and financial optimization. At Groupe Sclavo, we pride ourselves on total transparency. Unlike informal recycling solutions, our center is a classified facility for environmental protection (ICPE).
For a professional, working with the Eco-Relais de Carros guarantees :
- Regulatory compliance: We provide the documents you need to trace your waste, essential for your CSR reports and legal obligations.
- Precise measurements: Equipped with weighbridges and certified electronic scales, we weigh to the nearest kilo, ensuring that every gram of copper or aluminum deposited is fairly remunerated.
- Industry expertise: Our agents are trained to identify alloys instantly, so you can benefit from the best price according to the quality of your input.
A high-performance multi-metal purchasing counter
Iron and metal purchasing in Carros covers a wide range of products. Our expertise enables us to absorb large volumes while managing the specificity of each material.
- Copper (the “Holy Grail” of scrap metal): Very present in the electrical and plumbing trades. We buy stripped copper (millberry), mixed copper, tinned copper and sheathed electrical cables.
- Aluminum: From aluminum joinery, car rims, engine casings and offset sheet metal. Aluminum is a metal that retains its properties indefinitely, making recycling crucial.
- Brass and bronze: precious alloys often found in taps, industrial valves or decorative parts.
- Stainless steel: Indispensable in the region’s professional kitchens and in the food-processing industries of the Carros industrial zone.
- Ferrous metals: demolition scrap, IPN beams, sheet metal and cast iron offcuts. Although their value per kilo is lower than that of non-ferrous metals, their volume on a construction site represents a significant source of revenue.
The recycling process at the Carros Eco-Relais
How does a visit to your scrap metal dealer in Carros work? We’ve optimized the customer journey to minimize your waiting time. As soon as you enter 362 – 12ème Rue, we take care of you. After identifying the material, we weigh it. The price is immediately calculated on the basis of the LME (London Metal Exchange), the global market that regulates metal prices.
A crucial point to note for private and professional customers: in accordance with French legislation, all metal purchases are subject to secure payment by cheque or bank transfer. No cash transactions are authorized, ensuring maximum security and combating metal trafficking.
Local all-day service
One of the major strengths of our Carros center is its adaptability to site schedules. We’re open Monday to Friday, non-stop, from 08:00 to 18:00. This allows craftsmen to pass through during their break time or immediately after closing their worksites, thus avoiding unnecessary storage of precious metals in their vehicles, and limiting the risk of theft.
By choosing Sclavo Carros, you are supporting a local company that is reinvesting in the circular economy of the Alpes-Maritimes. Our mission is simple: to ensure that every scrap metal generated in the Plaine du Var region finds a second life in a foundry, while boosting the profitability of your business.
