  • a car crusher

  • Actually steel IS the most recycled material:

  • @SteelDayTV nope. By percentage, lead beats steel. Lead sits around 99% while steel is more like 96%.

  • @TheCaptainLulz Lead is certainly one of the most recycled materials with a POTENTIAL for 100% recycling. Structural Steel is 98%. By volume, by actuality, steel remains the most recycled material on the planet. See: recycle-steel. org

  • were to buy recycled steel?

  • Most likely wherever you normally buy steel from, it is recycled. All structural steel (beams, columns etc) is recycled steel (as shown in the video) with an average 93% recycled content. Steel is the most recycled material on the planet.
