Industry is not what it used to be in Ohio. Business owners are searching for ways to turn a profit despite the economy that prevails today. There are few lines of business that can be counted on for a fair return in a down economy. One of them is salvage.
Whether you are trying to close out an industrial site or seeking a reasonable way to dispose of excess equipment an AISI recycler may be your road back into the black. The American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) is an association of companies in the steel industry. Some are integrated producers and some are electric furnace steel makers. AISI recycling feeds the furnaces that are still turning out traditional and innovative steel products. They are constantly in search of sources of scrap metal to supply their furnaces. Recycling scrap steel into new product is cheaper than producing from virgin ore. An AISI buyer will see your white elephants as premium raw material.
Companies such as Industrial Surplus Inc. make multistate buying tours. This can be your opportunity to offload that nagging problem at AISI prices. This will ensure you are getting the most return for the material you have to offer. Old machinery, production equipment, chain or vehicles can all be recycled. Pieces large and small may be worth more to an AISI recycler than the storage overhead you are currently paying. Turn that small drain into a tidy profit and rid yourself of the worry.
Not every company is failing in the downturn. But all businesses are watching the bottom line with ever more vigilance. An AISI company is the place to look for used industrial equipment. As a volume dealer in metal an AISI seller often has industrial equipment for resale. Your company could potentially save thousands on material handling or other industrial equipment that needs purchase. New equipment runs at a premium. For the majority of business needs there is used equipment that will fulfill the need. The money saved on the purchase plus production equals a healthier bottom line.
AISI members can help your business when it is on the upswing and cushion the landing if it is on the wane.
