Aluminum Scrap – Sustainable Aluminum Supply: High-Grade Scrap & Primary Ingots

As global manufacturing shifts toward a circular economy, the demand for traceable, high-purity secondary metals has never been higher. Groupe Luano SARL bridges the gap between Africa’s vast mineral resources and the global industrial need for sustainable aluminum.

By integrating advanced sorting technologies with ethical sourcing practices, we provide international buyers with a reliable alternative to virgin ore, reducing carbon footprints without sacrificing material integrity.

1. High-Grade Aluminum Scrap: Recyclable & Cost-Effective

Our scrap metal division specializes in the recovery and processing of non-ferrous materials from end-of-life vehicles, industrial machinery, and structural demolition across the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Tanzania.

Technical Specifications & Grades

We utilize magnetic separation and XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analyzers to guarantee consistent chemistry across all batches.

• Contamination Control: Ferrous metals are strictly maintained at <0.5%.

• Packaging: Secure 1-ton compressed bales or loose bulk loading in 20ft/40ft containers.

Trust Factor: For standards on scrap classification, refer to the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI), the global authority on recycling specifications.

2. Premium Aluminum Ingots (P1020 & Specialized Alloys)

For industries requiring standardized raw materials, our Aluminum Ingots offer the perfect solution for extrusion, rolling, and high-precision casting.

Quality Benchmarks

• Standard Purity: 99.7% (P1020) and 99.8% options available.

• Low Impurity Profile: Strict limits on Silicon (Si) and Iron (Fe) to ensure superior electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.

• Form Factor: Standard 20kg to 25kg ingots, bundled for easy mechanical handling.

Our ingots are produced in facilities that adhere to the London Metal Exchange (LME) standards, ensuring that your raw material is liquid and recognized by any global port or exchange.

Sustainability & Ethical Supply Chain

At Groupe Luano SARL, we believe that industrial growth should not come at an environmental or social cost. Our operations in the DRC and Tanzania are built on the principles of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG).

• ISO 14001 Certified: Our processing centers utilize solar-powered machinery and zero-wastewater discharge protocols.

• Closed-Loop Recycling: We divert over 15,000 metric tons of aluminum from African landfills annually.

• Fair Trade Practices: We ensure ethical wages and safety equipment for our network of over 500 local scrap collectors and sorters.

• Traceability: We are implementing blockchain-enabled batch tracking to provide buyers with a “birth certificate” for their metal, documenting its journey from the source to the Port of Dar es Salaam.

Global Logistics & Tanzanian Port Excellence

Our strategic location allows us to offer some of the most competitive lead times in the African market. By leveraging the Port of Dar es Salaam, we bypass the bottlenecks often associated with inland logistics.

• Shipping Hubs: Direct routes to major ports in China, India, UAE, and Europe.

• Turnaround Time: Average 7–14 days from order confirmation to port departure.

• Advanced Tracking: Every container is equipped with GPS tracking for real-time visibility.

• Customs Expertise: Our team handles all IMDG (Hazardous Material) certifications and export documentation to ensure duty-compliant delivery.

Why Choose Groupe Luano SARL?

Partnering with us means securing a supply chain that is as resilient as it is responsible. We offer a 30% cost reduction compared to virgin aluminum prices, allowing your business to maximize margins while meeting sustainability targets.

• Scalability: Capacity to fulfill contracts up to 10,000+ metric tons per month.

• Transparency: Independent lab reports (SGS or Intertek) available upon request.

• Direct Source: Eliminate middleman markups by buying directly from the African processor.

Chemical Composition Analysis: 99.7% Pure Aluminum (P1020)

Each batch is verified via OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy) and is accompanied by a laboratory analysis certificate.

Compliance & Quality Standards

Our production follows the standardized guidelines established by the Aluminum Association and the LME. You can cross-reference these purity requirements through the following technical resources:

• The Aluminum Association: For global alloy designations and chemical limit standards.

• ASTM International (B241): For standard specifications for aluminum and aluminum-alloy seamless pipe and extruded tube.

Physical Properties of Our Ingots

• Ingot Weight: Approximately 20 kg – 25 kg per unit.

• Bundle Weight: Approximately 1,000 kg (1 Metric Ton) secured with heavy-duty galvanized steel strapping.

• Surface Appearance: Smooth, silvery-white metallic luster, free from dross, inclusions, and visible oxidation.
