Warrington based aluminum can recycler Novelis has increased the price it pays to councils and other collectors for aluminum used beverage cans by EUR 70 per tonne.
It has raised the price for loose, whole and flattened UBCs from EUR 800 per tonne to EUR 870 per tonne and the price for baled and densified material from EUR 850 per tonne to EUR 920 per tonne.
Mr Andy Doran recycling manager of Novelis UK said that the price change had been positive. We have changed the pricing to reflect overall strong global pricing. This has been increasing in the last couple of months. Demand for good quality UBCs has been consistently strong and we have seen a solid consistent output of UBCs from our plant in Warrington.
