In the era of Saudi Vision 2030, industries in the Kingdom are shifting towards sustainable and eco-friendly waste management. One of the most critical processes in this transition is Copper Granulation. If you are looking to maximize the value of your cable scrap while staying environmentally compliant, understanding this service is essential.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧?
Copper granulation is an advanced mechanical process that shreds electrical cables into tiny grains to separate the pure copper from its plastic or rubber insulation. Unlike outdated and hazardous methods, granulation ensures 99.9% purity without damaging the metal's properties.

If your facility generates scrap wiring—whether from construction, automotive, or industrial sectors—professional granulation services in Saudi Arabia offer distinct advantages:
• Higher Market Value: Granulated copper is classified as high-grade "bright berry" or "granules," which fetch significantly higher prices than unseparated or burnt scrap.
• Environmental Responsibility: Burning cables is illegal in KSA and causes toxic emissions. Granulation is a "green" technology with zero air pollution.
• 100% Recovery: Advanced air-separation technology ensures that even the smallest copper particles are recovered, leaving nothing behind in the plastic waste.
• Cost-Efficiency: It eliminates the need for manual stripping, saving hundreds of man-hours.

At specialized facilities like HITC Recycling in Jeddah, the granulation process follows a high-tech sequence:
1. Pre-Sorting: Cables are categorized based on thickness and type.
2. Primary Shredding: Large cables are chopped into manageable pieces.
3. Granulation: The "Granulator" machine chops the material into 2mm–5mm granules.
4. Air Separation: Using a vibrating density table, the heavy copper "sinks" while the light plastic "floats" away via air pressure.
5. Magnetic Cleaning: Any steel or iron particles are removed using high-intensity magnets to ensure 99% copper purity.

Q1: What types of scrap can be processed?
Most electrical waste, including house wires, industrial power cables, communication lines, and automotive harnesses, is perfect for granulation.
Q2: Is the separated plastic useful?
Yes! The separated PVC or rubber can be recycled into secondary products like floor mats or low-grade pipes, making the entire process "Zero Waste."
Q3: Where can I find reliable services in KSA?
HIT Recycling, located in Jeddah Industrial City 3, provides state-of-the-art copper granulation services, catering to both local industries and international export standards.
