Cable and wire processing: how your company can cut costs and boost sustainability

Description: Cable and wire processing allows companies to turn scrap into added value, with financial gains, legal compliance, and positive environmental impact. The Ecobraz Emigre NGO provides complete, safe, and documented solutions.

Why cable and wire processing is strategic

The volume of cables and wires discarded by industries, technology companies, telecommunications, and construction grows every year. These materials, often treated as scrap, can be processed to recover copper and other metals of high commercial value.

Risks of improper disposal

Improper disposal of cables and wires can lead to:

• Financial loss: valuable materials are wasted.
• Environmental impacts: plastics and metals may contaminate soil and water.
• Legal risks: non-compliance with the National Solid Waste Policy (Law 12.305/2010).
• Corporate image damage: irregular disposal practices compromise reputation.

Benefits of corporate processing

Companies that adopt cable and wire processing gain advantages such as:

• Cost reduction: efficient waste management and recovery of valuable metals.
• Complete documentation: technical reports, environmental manifests, and invoices.
• Safety: processing in a controlled environment, eliminating contamination risks.
• ESG alignment: sustainable practices recognized in corporate reports.
