GRUBA RECYKLING Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością is implementing a project under Measure 3.4 Grants for working capital of the Intelligent Development Operational Programme, 2014-2020, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.
Project title: Implementation of a new copper cable recycling technology.
Project objective: The aim of the project is to implement the results of own R&D work by implementing process innovation in the form of a new copper cable recycling technology. The final effect of the new technological process will be copper granules of up to 99.98% purity and by-products: the remanants of cable coverings. The project will help the company obtain high purity copper from scrap of small diameter cables. The obtained purified milled cable material can be directly offered on the market as raw material as well as used by the Applicant for the manufacture of extruded elements as per customer’s expectations.
