Metals
Aluminium, Copper, Zinc, Nickel, Cobalt and other non-ferrous metals are essential for the low-carbon economy. They are critical for solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicle batteries, energy storage and power grids. Wolfortuna Limited Non-Ferrous Metals Division supplies high-quality secondary (recycled) products to support decarbonisation in automotive, renewable energy, transportation and other high-impact sectors.
Aluminium
About 8% of the Earth’s crust is composed of aluminium, making it the most abundant metal on the planet. Aluminium’s lightweight property makes it very popular in construction, transportation and machinery.
Some of the specifications we work with:
Tablet
High-purity printing plates, uncoated – very clean
Taint/Tabor
Mixed alloy sheet (3xxx/5xxx/6xxx common), foil-free – clean
Taldack
Compressed UBC, high-density – typically 3xxx/5xxx series dominant
Telic
Machining chips/turnings, mixed alloys – less clean (oily possible)
Tense
Clean cast parts (engine blocks, etc.) – cast alloys, not wrought series
Troma
Clean alloy wheels (typically 3xxx/5xxx/6xxx), hub-free – clean
Aluminium Ingots
Sweated aluminium (ingots/sows/slabs from scrap melt). Remelted secondary ingot form, low inclusions – closest to ingots
High-purity primary/remelt aluminium ingots. 99.7% min Al, low Fe/Si impurities – premium grade
Copper
There are more than 400 copper alloys, each with its unique properties. Copper’s strength and conductivity make it useful in various building and electrical applications.

Ferrous metals, primarily steel and cast iron, provide high strength and durability. They are indispensable for structural applications such as buildings, bridges, ships, vehicle frames and wind turbine towers. In the energy transition they play a key supporting role; recycling further enhances their sustainability.
