The line
How material moves through Zorbatek
A controlled route from inbound load to finished puck. Every stage is recorded, so material can be traced from the weighbridge to dispatch.
01
Material received
Inbound aluminium is booked in, weighed and recorded.
02
Grading & sorting
Material is separated and graded by type and condition.
03
Processing
Controlled processing prepares material for densification.
04
Densification
Recovered aluminium is compacted into high-density pucks.
05
Quality control
Checks are carried out against our ISO 9001 framework.
06
Ready for onward use
Pucks are prepared for dispatch to industrial users.

Circularity
Keeping valuable aluminium in circulation.
Aluminium that has already been produced holds real value. Our role is practical: recover it, process it properly and return it to industry in a format that can be used again.
01
Recover
Aluminium is collected from suppliers across the UK.
02
Process
Material is graded, sorted and densified under controlled conditions.
03
Return to industry
Pucks are supplied to foundries, smelters and processors.
04
Repeat
Material re-enters production and the cycle continues.
Industry credentials
Accredited and connected.
