Recycle insulated wire efficiently with Star Recycling’s expert copper and aluminum recovery services, maximizing material value while supporting sustainable metal recycling solutions.
Recycle all types of insulated wire—from copper and aluminum to BX, EC, strippable, and more—using Star Recycling’s eco‑friendly processing that maximizes material recovery while minimizing environmental impact.
At Star Recycling, we accept all forms of insulated wire — from copper, aluminum, BX, EC and strippable varieties to communication and Christmas lights — and employ advanced, eco‑friendly mechanical separation methods (granulating, shredding, airflow and electrostatic technologies) to maximize copper recovery while minimizing environmental impact through zero‑chemical, zero‑burn processes
At Star Recycling, we welcome all major types of insulated wiring—including THHN, Romex®, communication cables (Cat‑5/6), EC, BX, strippable wire, and even Christmas lights—and offer efficient, eco-conscious processing that separates insulation and recovers high‑value copper and aluminum using mechanical methods with no burning or harmful chemicals as part of our holistic copper recovery solutions
At Star Recycling, insulated wire undergoes precision processing—using high-powered chopping, shredding, and granulating equipment—to mechanically separate copper conductors from their plastic or rubber insulation. This allows us to deliver exceptionally clean copper and aluminum output with recovery rates reaching 99% in many systems.
By combining mechanical granulation with advanced air and electrostatic separation technologies, we ensure nearly all residual copper is recovered from shredded insulation, resulting in high-purity metal streams and highly efficient recycling throughput. This approach avoids burning or chemicals, reducing contamination while maximizing material value for our customers.
