Alcoa has announced its Top North American Scrap Suppliers for 2013, again naming Metro Alloys among its elite suppliers. It’s the ninth consecutive year that Alcoa’s recycling and scrap purchasing group has recognized its best suppliers in key performance areas that include safety, quality, volume, breadth of supply to multiple locations, and delivery performance.

Only 13 scrap suppliers across North America were named to Alcoa’s 2013 list, which is a veritable Who’s Who among top aluminum suppliers.

Metro Alloys is one of the leading buyers, processors and brokers of industrial scrap metals. Alcoa’s leadership in scrap and recycling dates back to the late 1800s when the company practically invented the concept of recycling aluminum.
