The Metal Recycling group of Metso Minerals has relocated to an operations and office facility on Eighth Street in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
The company, formerly known as Svedala Recycling, used to be housed in a different building in Cedar Rapids, one that also included the company’s aggregates and minerals crushing operations.
“Our Metal Recycling operation in North America has always shared resources with other divisions of the company,” remarks Bill Tigner, vice president and general manager of Metso Minerals, Metal Recycling North America. “Now the entire support staff for Metal Recycling is 100 percent devoted to our customers alone. The result has been improved service in all facets of our business.”
The Cedar Rapids office will sell and support the Metso line of shredders, plus the Hammermills, Lindemann and Oberlander product groups. According to Tigner, a major source of business growth has been the company’s shredder wear parts. The company supplies manganese steel parts from its two foundries in Brazil and South Africa.
The Metals Recycling group of Metso Minerals was created in the fall of 2001 after Finland’s Metso Corp. acquired Svedala Industri AB of Sweden. The names of former Svedala operating units were changed to reflect Metso's ownership earlier this year.
