Zinc has a special place in C\u00f4te d’Azur architecture. A noble material par excellence, it guarantees the watertightness and longevity of roofs in the Plaine du Var region. For zinc roofers working in Carros, Nice, Vence and Saint-Jeannet, managing site waste is a logistical, environmental and financial challenge. At Eco-Relais Sclavo, located at 362 – 12\u00e8me Rue in Carros<\/strong>, we have designed a zinc buy-back service that goes far beyond a simple transaction: a genuine expertise dedicated to the roofing trade. <\/p>\n

Zinc metallurgy: Why is it a valuable waste product?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Zinc (chemical symbol Zn) is a non-ferrous metal with exceptional anti-corrosive properties, thanks to its ability to form a natural protective layer known as patina. It’s this durability that makes it a first-rate building material. But it’s also what makes it so valuable for recycling. Unlike other materials that degrade, zinc retains 100% of its mechanical and chemical properties after remelting. <\/p>\n

In Carros, we mainly receive two types of zinc:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Rolled zinc (NF EN 988):<\/strong> Used for gutters, downspouts and ornaments.<\/li>\n
  2. Pre-patinated zinc:<\/strong> widely used in modern architecture for its dark gray or anthracite appearance as soon as it is installed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Zinc recycling at Eco-Relais Sclavo saves 95% of the energy<\/strong> required to produce it from the primary ore (blende). By bringing us your metals, you become a direct player in reducing CO2 emissions in the Alpes-Maritimes. <\/p>\n

    <\/strong><\/p>\n

    Buyback categories at our Carros counter<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    To get the best price per kilo, sorting is your best ally. At our Industrial Zone center, we distinguish several qualities that have a direct impact on your payment slip: <\/p>\n

      \n
    • New Zinc (zinc roofing offcuts):<\/strong> These are clean offcuts, with no welds or traces of putty. This is the quality most sought-after by foundries, as it enables them to produce new, high-precision rolled products immediately. <\/li>\n
    • Old zinc:<\/strong> These are elements recovered from old roofs. They are often covered with a natural greyish patina. Although perfectly recyclable, they need to be checked for “pollution” (iron nails, steel hooks, slate remnants). <\/li>\n
    • Zinc with solder:<\/strong> Zinc workers often use a tin-lead alloy to assemble roofing elements. Although we buy soldered zinc, the price is adjusted slightly, as these soldered joints have to be specifically treated in a refinery to separate the different metals. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      <\/strong><\/p>\n

      Practical guide for roofers: How to maximize your profits?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      For building professionals in the 06 region, metal management needs to be optimized. Here’s our expert advice: <\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Separate at source:<\/strong> Don’t mix zinc with lead roofing or copper scrap. Each metal has its own LME price. <\/li>\n
      2. Clean your batches:<\/strong> Take a few minutes to remove galvanized steel gutter hooks. A “clean” batch of zinc avoids downgrading to “mixed zinc”. <\/li>\n
      3. Intelligent storage:<\/strong> Use specific bins on your worksites. Sclavo Eco-Relais can provide you with suitable containers if you generate large volumes of zinc during major renovations in Carros. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
