Steinert's trademarked assurance and dependability combine in the creation of Conservit
In the heart of the Mid-Atlantic region, Conservit Inc., a seasoned player in the metals recycling industry with over 50 years of experience, has undergone a remarkable transformation, thanks to a strategic partnership with STEINERT. This partnership has enabled Conservit to significantly upgrade its material sorting capabilities, expand service offerings, and drive growth.
At the core of this growth is a growing fleet of STEINERT's advanced sorting equipment, which utilises magnetic separation technology. Known for its high performance, ease of installation, and user-friendly operation, this technology contributes directly to improved resource recovery rates, purity of sorted materials, and profitability for customers like Conservit.
The focus of STEINERT's technology is on precise identification and sorting of recyclable materials, including critical metals like aluminium. This capability supports higher recovery efficiencies, a key factor in the circular economy and resource sustainability.
Customer satisfaction is a priority for STEINERT, as evidenced by their tailored sorting solutions co-developed with clients and comprehensive support, including factory-standard repairs through their North American production facility. This approach strengthens operational reliability and business confidence in using STEINERT's systems.
Conservit, in its pursuit of high-end sorting plants, considers the expansion with STEINERT as an important next step. The success of this partnership is reflected in both an expanded fleet and a broader service menu, indicating increased capacity and range of recycling processes.
The partnership between Conservit and STEINERT exemplifies a synergistic relationship where advanced magnetic sorting technology elevates operational performance and customer service, fostering sustainable business growth in the metals recycling industry.
Conservit's loyalty to STEINERT is evident in its continued investment in STEINERT machines over the years, due to their performance, recovery rates, durability, and long life, as well as the attentive customer service. The success of Conservit's nonferrous plant is attributed to its relationship with STEINERT and long-time STEINERT contact, Ross Meadema.
The ruggedness of STEINERT equipment helps reduce downtime, a critical factor in the metals recycling industry where any downtime can result in lost revenue. The long-term relationship between Conservit and STEINERT has led to the transformation of Conservit's nonferrous sorting plant from outdated to modern and successful.
Working with STEINERT has also given Conservit greater access to the growing domestic market for high-grade mixed shredded metals. In 2021, Conservit added high-end sorting machines from STEINERT to refine mixed metals from its nonferrous plant. The STEINERT device, which Conservit continues to operate, has been running well since its installation.
Communication with STEINERT has been beneficial for Conservit, providing timely solutions to issues. The analysis of the quality of shredded mixed metals, conducted in collaboration with a shredding and sorting plant operator, revealed that the operator was discarding 4-12 percent metallics in its auto shredder residue, despite having nearly twice the number of sorting devices as Conservit.
Conservit expresses trust in STEINERT and Ross Meadema, with Ross Meadema praising Conservit for its maintenance and operation of STEINERT sorting devices. The lifespans of the early STEINERT machines Conservit acquired have not been surpassed, indicating their impressive durability.
In an update of its nonferrous recovery plant, Conservit purchased a plant from STEINERT, selected based on cost, performance, and quality of equipment. The success of this partnership underscores the benefits of collaborating with a technology leader like STEINERT in the metals recycling industry.
The strategic partnership between Conservit and STEINERT has led to an expansion of Conservit's fleet, primarily consisting of STEINERT's advanced sorting equipment that utilizes finance-intensive technology, contributing to improved resource recovery rates, purity of sorted materials, and profitability. In the domain of the metals recycling industry, where operational reliability and business confidence are crucial, this partnership showcases a synergistic relationship that fosters sustainable growth through high-end sorting plants and premium customer service.
