Scrap metal purchase is the cornerstone of LEBAL's business. We specialize in collecting post-production waste from metal processing plants and scrap metal in the form of fragments or whole components such as steel profiles, sheets, and constructions. Additionally, we collect swarf from steel cutting and the production of metal parts.
We accept scrap metal from both individual customers and companies. Whether you're a private individual looking to tidy up your property or an entrepreneur generating scrap metal waste, our services are tailored to meet your needs. We welcome long-term cooperation with companies generating iron or steel waste.
The prices of scrap metal depend on the national market for secondary raw materials. We strive to offer favorable rates for our customers. For retail, wholesale, and transit transactions, prices are set separately based on the quantity of the raw material. We guarantee attractive rates, the possibility to negotiate, and flexible payment terms.

-
Made of Stainless Steel
- Corrosion-resistant steel elements containing at least 10.5% chromium and a maximum of 1.2% carbon.
-
Non-Loadbearing Steel
- Elements exceeding the dimensions for batch scrap, requiring treatment before use as furnace charge.
-
Steel Sheet
- Non-batch light scrap in thin sheets, not exceeding 4 mm thickness (e.g., sheets, steel plates, car body components).
-
Cast Iron
- Waste primarily composed of an iron-carbon alloy with over 2.11% carbon, divided into machine (dark cast iron) and commercial (white cast iron).
-
Gabaric
- Steel components with a wall thickness of 4 mm or more and dimensions greater than 1500 x 500 x 500 mm.
-
Post-Production
- Waste in the form of sheet metal offcuts, openwork, burnouts.
-
Shavings
- Steel waste from mechanical processing of metals - coils and sheets.
We provide professional services for both the storage and collection of raw materials, offering prepared containers and scrap storage containers. Using specialized equipment, we collect steel waste and dispatch loading trucks nationwide. We offer special prices for customers who prepare and load cast iron or steel for direct delivery to steelworks.
Scrap yard processing equipment
To enhance our recycling efficiency, we use the SQUALO 2000T press shear from Bonfiglioli, powered by a 160 VEM exhaust-free electric motor. Its robust construction and simple operation make it ideal for quickly loading cast iron and steel, including ship loading. The SQUALO 2000T processes 20 to 22 tonnes per hour, producing high-quality scrap with a higher bulk density.
