Magnesium scrap.

## What we accept

Magnesium scrap. Material is weighed and graded on arrival at our yard in Mina Abdallah.

## Kept apart from aluminium

Magnesium looks like aluminium and grades differently. The two are separated in the yard rather than loaded together.

## Assessed on inspection

Magnesium is assessed against the material itself, and a lot may be inspected at the yard by arrangement.

## Handled apart from light alloy

Magnesium is light and resembles aluminium but behaves differently and carries a different price. It is identified and segregated before weighing rather than run in with light alloy.

## Swarf and fines are a fire risk

Magnesium turnings, grinding dust and fines ignite readily and are not taken loose alongside other metal. Solid castings and offcuts are handled normally.

## From the yard to the port

Five stages, handled by us, in the order they happen.

### 01 Grading and preparation

Material is sorted and graded, then cut, sheared or baled to the size the buyer specifies.

### 02 Weighing

Every load is weighed and a weight ticket is issued against it, recording gross, tare and net.

### 03 Inspection

A lot may be inspected at the yard by arrangement. Photographs and weights of a specific lot are provided on request.

### 04 Container loading

Sorted material is loaded to container at the yard, grade by grade rather than mixed.

### 05 Documentation and shipment

Paperwork is handled from the yard through to the port, and the shipment leaves through Shuaiba or Shuwaikh.
