WENDT commissions non-ferrous recycling plant for Moffatt Scrap Iron & Metal
Moffatt Scrap Iron & Metal is a full-service metal recycling company that focuses on environmentally friendly recycling practices.
NEW SYSTEM RECOVERS PREVIOUSLY LOST METAL SCRAP
WENDT Corporation has commissioned a small non-ferrous plant for Moffatt Scrap Iron & Metal as part of Moffatt’s overall strategy to increase the volume of non-ferrous scrap metal recycled.
Since 1984, Moffatt has operated in Campbellville, Ontario. A full-service metal recycling company with a team of 43 employees, Moffatt also operates Triple M Demolition which provides scrap infeed for its recycling process requirements.
Moffatt’s non-ferrous plant features a new WENDT Tumbleback feeder, a trommel, and fines eddy current separator, and also incorporates the company’s eddy systems, which are currently in use.
Prior to the purchase of the WENDT non-ferrous system, Moffatt was running its automobile shredder residue (ASR) through a single eddy current separator, leaving unsized and non-ferrous metal uncaptured. The new system will allow Moffatt to rerun the ASR to capture additional non-ferrous metals that were not recovered using one eddy current.
“We were selling it to another home that had the equipment we now have to recover this metal,” says Christine Moffatt, a Moffatt sales and purchasing representative
“WENDT works with different size companies from small owner operators to large corporate accounts,” said Bill Close, WENDT business development manager. “The effort to develop robust solutions for the small owner operators is challenging, but our

goal is to position them with good decisions for growth. It was a pleasure working with the Moffatt team as we brainstormed together to find the correct solution to meet their needs.”
“We are looking to achieve better results with the new WENDT plant, especially recovering additional non-ferrous material and the ability to process more materials,” said Moffatt. The addition of the new non-ferrous plant is a foundation of the company’s recycling strategy. The plant is designed for future expansion and was commissioned and installed in January.
