Metalekspo

Metalekspo (SIA "Metalekspo") is a Latvian metal recycling company headquartered at Rencenu str. 32 in Riga. Founded in 1999, the company describes its core business as purchasing, sorting, recycling and producing granulated metal scrap, as well as selling recycled metal scrap and finished products. It states that it has around 25 years of experience in the non-ferrous metal market and employs an average of 57 people. The company buys both non-ferrous and ferrous scrap metal, publishing purchasing prices for iron scrap in Riga and offering scrap metal acceptance and disposal, transport services and container services. Its published admission procedure requires that metal scrap be free of organic impurities and other junk, that materials be sorted by nomenclature groups, and that mixed metals be accepted at the lowest applicable category. Metalekspo also collects scrap metal and provides containers for companies that generate scrap metal and used batteries, using vehicles ranging from a 3.5-tonne DAF with manipulator to 11-tonne and 19-tonne VOLVO or SCANIA trucks, the latter with a trailer. Metalekspo reports revenue of 58.1 million EUR in 2024, 44.7 million EUR in 2023 and 63.3 million EUR in 2022. Its main markets are listed as Germany, Lithuania, Estonia, Italy, Belgium, France, Hungary, Austria, Poland, Switzerland, China, South Korea, Japan, India and Spain, alongside its home market of Latvia. In the framework of Project No. 2.2.2.1/1/24/A/004, "Establishment of a Brass Separation Line at Metalekspo," the company delivered and installed a brass separation line with a processing capacity of at least 11,660 tonnes of waste per year, a significant portion of which is expected to be waste generated in Latvia. The project is co-financed by the European Union Cohesion Fund and is intended to separate metal fractions such as brass, copper and aluminium and to produce high-quality secondary raw materials.
