About Us
S. Norton is a leading British metals recycler playing a key role in the global circular economy for raw materials. We recycle over 1.5m tonnes of waste metals every year, supplying customers across the world from small refineries to large multinational organisations.
We have developed sorting and separation processes to allow us to recycle ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals from a range of sources such as end of life vehicles, light iron and waste electrical and electronic goods (WEEE). We produce a range of co-products such as recycled polymers, fuels and aggregates, ensuring these materials are reused and diverted from landfill.
Weve been in business for more than 60 years and were continuing to grow, acquiring new sites and developing and investing in our operations across the UK while we work to achieve our aim of zero waste
