RECYCÂBLES, the leading provider of cable waste recovery
Waste recovery from complex or basic cables requires leading-edge technology expertise. In 2008, SUEZ and Nexans established RECYCÂBLES, which quickly became the leading recycler of cables and non-ferrous metals in France.
Handling all categories of cables from complex or basic cables
Under the oversight of SUEZ, RECYCÂBLES handles all categories of cables, from collection and recovery of end-of-life cables to cabling production waste. The success of RECYCÂBLES mainly depends on:
custom logistics solutions,
guaranteed best material yield from each type of cable,
quantifiable and transparent recovery,
innovative processes in recycling polymers.
The recovery channel offers rigorously-monitored traceability
Collection in France and other countries uses appropriate transport methods along with secure storage containers and hubs. Each year, RECYCÂBLES processes 36,000 tonnes of cables, from which it generates 18,000 tonnes of metal granules and 13,000 tonnes of plastic. The combination of leading-edge technologies enables the generation of 99.9% pure copper granules.
