Cable Recycling
Let 2trg handle your cable recycling needs and keep it from becoming another solid waste in landfills. Separating the cable into like products, 2trg recovers copper and aluminum from scrap cabling and wiring, and partners with US vendors to prepare these metals for reuse.
2trg believes the reclamation of copper is especially important to our environment. Not only does it eliminate a potential landfill waste product, but its reuse also will help make the installation of solar energy more cost efficient. According to Recycling Today, January 2008:
“The future of copper looks bright in harnessing renewable resources. Lower-cost, more efficient manufacturing using copper brings down the cost of solar energy installations. Systems that produce electricity through the action of sunshine on certain semi-conductors have historically depended upon silicon semiconductors. With current shortages of silicon, copper-indium-gallium-diselenide or CIGS semiconductors, made from copper has been found to be energy efficient compared with silicon. Additionally, solar farms will require copper cables and copper-loaded transformers, inverters and switchgear in order for solar energy to be transmitted for use. Extracting copper from cable and wire will not only divert solid waste from landfills but will also play into the bigger picture of providing copper for other ‘green’ endeavors.”
