We take the concept of Reduce – Reuse – Recycle very seriously here at Gordon. Machines are meticulously programed to utilize raw materials efficiently by reducing the amount of metal ‘drop’ / ‘scrap’. Every little piece of scrap Metal including the metal shavings get collected in the bins and are processed for recycling.
