State, local, and company leadership joined Aurubis Richmond for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony, just a little over two years after it broke ground. We are excited about the multimetal recycling solutions the facility offers the industry as well as the opportunities it creates for Georgians.
Today marks a significant milestone for Aurubis with the official ribbon-cutting ceremony for its state-of-the-art recycling facility in Augusta, Georgia. 🇺🇸🍑 🏗️ Following over two years of construction, Aurubis Richmond is the first-ever secondary smelter of its kind for multimetal recycling in the United States. 🎀 Today’s event brought together Aurubis leaders, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and Mayor of the City of Augusta, Garnett Johnson, and numerous other local officials and community members to celebrate the facility that promises to be a game-changer in sustainable metal recycling. 📈 After breaking ground in June 2022, Aurubis made the strategic decision at the end of 2022 to fast-track the expansion of the plant and invest a total of around $ 800 million. ♻️ With the expansion stage, the facility will be able process up to 180,000 tons of complex recycling materials annually, including circuit boards, copper cables, and other metal-containing products. 🗨️ “Aurubis Richmond is going to become a major player in the North American multimetal supply chain and a significant employer in greater Augusta,” states David Schultheis, President and Managing Director of Aurubis Richmond. “I am very proud of what the team has achieved, building this state-of-the-art recycling plant in just over two years.” Congratulations to this truly remarkable team effort and welcome to the Aurubis family, Aurubis Richmond! 🎊 #Aurubis #MetalsforProgress #TomorrowMetals #AurubisRichmond #Georgia #TeamGeorgia #GrowingGA #Sustainability #Recycling #CircularEconomy
