Steiner's unique dependability is solidified through collaboration with Conservit, a testament to their combined resilience.
In the world of metals recycling, Conservit Inc., a Maryland-based company with over half a century of experience, has made significant strides thanks to its long-standing partnership with STEINERT.
Operational Transformation and Efficiency Gains
Conservit's journey began with the transformation of its nonferrous sorting operations. From a smaller, outdated plant, it has evolved into a modern and successful facility, significantly enhancing sorting precision and efficiency. This transformation was made possible by adopting STEINERT’s advanced sorting systems and maintaining operational excellence in the facility.
Superior Metal Recovery
One of the key achievements of this partnership is the superior metal recovery capabilities demonstrated by Conservit's equipment. Through benchmarking exercises, it was found that Conservit's sorting technology identified 4-12 percent metallic content in auto shredder residue (ASR) that had previously been discarded by competitors. This highlights the advanced recovery potential of Conservit's sorting technology combined with effective operation and maintenance.
Ongoing Collaboration and Support
The partnership goes beyond just technology supply. STEINERT conducts quarterly performance assessments to ensure optimal system operation and continuous improvement. This strategic cooperation has streamlined Conservit's operations and maintained high equipment efficiency.
Expansion of Service Offerings
With its growing fleet of STEINERT sorting equipment, Conservit has been able to upgrade the materials it processes and expand its service menu. This growth in both capability and market reach has been particularly noticeable in the Mid-Atlantic region.
A Long-Term Relationship
Conservit's loyalty to STEINERT is rooted in three key factors: minimal downtime, durable equipment with long lifespans, and exceptional customer service. In 2021, Conservit added high-end sorting machines from STEINERT to refine mixed metals from its nonferrous plant.
Ross Meadema, a long-time STEINERT contact for Conservit, commends the metals recycling company for its exceptional facility maintenance and operation. He notes that the STEINERT device purchased by Conservit is still operational and performing well.
In conclusion, Conservit's advancements stem from integrating STEINERT’s cutting-edge sorting technology with strong operational management and ongoing collaboration. This partnership has resulted in enhanced resource recovery, operational excellence, and service expansion in metals recycling.
The strategic collaboration between Conservit Inc. and STEINERT has facilitated the improvement of the manufacturing industry, as Conservit's success in metals recycling is attributed to the efficient sorting systems provided by STEINERT. The finance sector has observed growth in Conservit's business due to operational transformation and efficiency gains. This partnership deeply impacts the technology sector, as Conservit's advanced sorting technology, combined with effective maintenance, offers superior metal recovery capabilities, benefiting the industry overall.
