Conservit Inc. Transforms Non-Ferrous Metal Recycling Operations with STEINERT's Advanced Technology
Conservit Inc., a metal recycling company based in Hagerstown, Maryland, has been in business for over half a century. Recently, the company has undergone a significant transformation, thanks to its strategic partnership with STEINERT.
In 2021, Conservit Inc. acquired a state-of-the-art non-ferrous metal recovery plant from STEINERT, replacing an outdated facility. This collaboration, marked by a focus on high-quality sorting technology, operational support, and system performance, has greatly benefited Conservit.
The integration of STEINERT's advanced sorting technologies has enabled superior recovery rates of non-ferrous metals from challenging materials such as auto shredder residue (ASR). In benchmarking exercises, STEINERT's equipment proved more effective in recovering metallics than competitors with nearly twice the amount of sorting devices, highlighting the precision and efficiency of STEINERT technology combined with Conservit's operational excellence.
The collaboration extends beyond equipment supply, involving quarterly assessments and active communication between STEINERT and Conservit's team. This ongoing support ensures optimal equipment performance, helps quickly resolve issues, and identifies opportunities for operational improvement. Conservit credits this responsive service relationship as a major driver for its sustained partnership with STEINERT.
Through this partnership, Conservit has transitioned from a smaller, outdated sorting facility into a modern, high-performing non-ferrous metal recycling plant. The enhanced sorting capabilities have allowed Conservit to expand its service offerings, upgrade material quality, and increase profitability. This operational transformation has strengthened Conservit's market position and operational efficiency in the Mid-Atlantic recycling industry.
Ross Meadema, STEINERT's point of contact for Metzner and Conservit, commends the metal recycling company for maintaining their separation equipment effectively. Metzner, Conservit's CEO, expresses full trust in STEINERT and Ross Meadema, and feels valued as a customer.
The STEINERT equipment at Conservit Inc. has been running efficiently since its installation. In fact, Conservit has acquired more STEINERT machines over the years due to the high performance and recovery rates they provide.
STEINERT's service and support have been instrumental in Conservit's operations, particularly in addressing problems and maintaining a strong relationship. A trial conducted by STEINERT and another treatment and fragmentation plant using the Conservit system discovered between 4 to 12 percent of metallic components in shredder residue that were previously discarded. Despite having almost twice as many separation units, the client found more metallic components using Conservit's system.
The long-standing relationship between Conservit and STEINERT has been crucial in Conservit's success. This partnership has not only modernised Conservit's operations but also opened up the growing national market for high-quality mixed fragmented metals for Conservit Inc. Thanks to their collaboration, Conservit has transformed from a small, outdated non-ferrous metal treatment plant into a successful one.
