Copper Recycling Increases as Demand Rises

Reported 11 months ago

In response to the increasing demand for copper projected to double by 2035, cable manufacturers like Nexans are intensifying their recycling efforts, with around 14% of copper rods now made from recycled metal and aiming to reach 20%. The industry shift is driven by the global move towards clean energy and electrification, leading to more copper use in various sectors like building construction and technology. Recycling copper not only conserves resources but also reduces the environmental impact of mining, making it a sustainable and valuable material for future production.
