What’s happening? How does it happen?
The TRS company is recycling scrap materials and
in the same time remanufacturing metal materials.
They are collaborating both with private and public
actors, in order to provide a series of services, relating
to collecting, providing and selling scrap materials.
The companies is specialized in the recycling of
Ferrous and non-Ferrous materials, in order to produce
new secondary raw materials, but also remanufacturing
metal products. They are collecting metal
waste from big and large companies in the harbor
and in the same time, collecting waste from private
households and commercial activities.
Why is this an interesting circular initiative
for circular harbours?
The metal recycling operation close the loop between
the producers of scrap metal and the one that
would like to reuse it, this create a strong circular
connection in the harbor with other companies, and
in the same time also with the city.
