Eco Edge Copper remains the best place to buy Copper wire scrap wholesale. We have more than 120,000mt of copper wire scrap ready to be shipped to every part of the world. Our major buyers come from Asia and Europe. The copper wire scrap we have is divided into 3 categories with regards to their quality.

#1 Copper

#1 Copper is unalloyed, uncoated copper free from contaminants such as paint, tar, insulation, and solder. This makes it exceptionally easy to recycle and repurpose. With a copper content of 98%+, #1 Copper is considered one of the most valuable metals on the market.

Clean copper tubing, the most valuable form of #1 copper scrap, is commonly used in plumbing and water line pipes and typically measures at least 1/16 of an inch in thickness. 

#2 Copper

#2 Copper wire scrap is not as pure as #1 Copper, but it’s still valuable. This type of copper wire scrap may have some coatings, alloys, or small amounts of impurities, which make it slightly less desirable for recycling compared to #1 Copper. 

However, #2 Copper can still be found in various items like pipes, wires, and other copper materials. While it may not fetch as high a price as #1 Copper, it’s still sought after in the scrap metal market for its recyclability and usability in various industries. The minimum copper content of this type is between 94-96%.

#3 Copper

Finally, #3 Copper is the lowest grade of copper on the market and typically contains significant impurities or alloys. #3 Copper may include copper materials with extensive oxidation, coatings, or mixed metals, making it less desirable for recycling. While it still retains some copper content, about 88-92%, #3 Copper commands lower prices in the scrap metal market due to its reduced purity and usability.
