Circularity at Bradken: Circularity in Action
Circularity at Bradken is our steel recycling initiative, using circularity to transform end-of-life wear products into new value. It’s a practical, sustainable and scalable solution that supports our customers’ sustainability goals while advancing the mining industry toward carbon-neutral operations and zero waste.
Circularity at Bradken is more than a program-it’s a mindset.
Advancing Responsible And Sustainable Mining Through Circular Design
Bradken’s Mill Liner Recycling Program has been designed to help the customers achieve their sustainability goals by disposing of worn and used liners. Under this program, the worn and used liners are dismantled, and their components are recovered for recycling or reusing in the most efficient way possible.
