American Iron & Metal (AIM) is a family-owned, Canada-based company founded in 1936. Since that day, AIM has grown to be recognized as one of the World’s most sophisticated metal recyclers, specializing in the recovery and recycling of scrap metal by-products. With the growth and support of our 4,000+ valued employees, we have evolved into a successful and multifaceted company with a global footprint and over 125 sites worldwide. The primary reason? An effective and thorough development strategy. Today, AIM’s operations are headed by its founder’s successors: Herbert, Ronald, and Ricky Black, who have vowed to uphold the company’s long-established standards for quality. From its humble Canadian origins, we have grown to become a sophisticated leader in ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling (AIM Recycling), decommissioning & demolition (Delsan AIM), auto-parts sales & recycling (AIM Kenny U-Pull), manufacturing of solder assemblies (AIM Global Solder Solutions), construction waste recycling (AIM Eco-Centre), and production of customized industrial & mining products (AIM Minesource).

  • AIM Recyclage est fier de soutenir l'École nationale des pompiers du Québec. En avril dernier, AIM Recyclage a mis à leur disposition des véhicules pour une formation en désincarcération. Bravo à l'équipe du site AIM Recyclage Haute-Beauce d'avoir mis sur pied et coordonné ce projet qui contribuera à plusieurs régions de notre grande province. « Nous tenons à exprimer notre plus grande gratitude envers votre entreprise pour tout le soutien logistique apporté lors de l'organisation de la session d'accréditation des instructeurs en désincarcération, organisée par l'École nationale des pompiers du Québec, qui s'est déroulée ici à Saint-Georges les 13 et 14 avril derniers. Seize candidats provenant de diverses régions du Québec, telles que la Mauricie, la Montérégie, l'Outaouais, Chaudière-Appalaches, Lanaudière, le Centre-du-Québec, la Côte-Nord et la Capitale nationale, ont ainsi pu parfaire leurs compétences pour devenir instructeurs en désincarcération, élargissant ainsi l'offre de formation dans ce domaine aux pompiers de tout le Québec. Grâce au prêt de huit véhicules, votre entreprise nous a permis de réduire les coûts liés à une telle journée et de bénéficier d'une grande variété de véhicules à notre disposition. Nous sommes donc extrêmement reconnaissants de l'importance que vous accordez à la formation des pompiers en désincarcération, contribuant ainsi à assurer un service optimal à nos concitoyens. » - Frédéric Morin, directeur Service de la sécurité incendie

  • Recycling metal is one of the best ways we can support environmental and resource sustainability. Metal has a unique place among the materials we recycle because of its ability to be recycled endlessly without compromising quality. In order to understand why recycling metal is so important, let's examine some of the environmental advantages. Reducing Emissions & Energy Consumption Scrap metal plays a key role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and resource consumption. For example, recycling aluminum alone saves a staggering 95% of the energy compared to extracting and refining processes, greatly reducing the environmental impact of metal production. Preservation of Natural Resources Recycling scrap metal decreases the need to extract raw materials through mining and quarrying, thus preserving land, natural resources, and habitats used by wildlife. Economic and Social Benefits The recycling sector boosts regional economies, generates jobs, and advances sustainable practices. Recycling scrap metal is also an effective way to divert waste from local landfills, while lessening the need for mined metals. Metal Recycling is a Win for the Environment! ********************************************* Le recyclage de métaux est l'un des meilleurs moyens de soutenir la durabilité environnementale et des ressources. Le métal occupe une place unique parmi les matériaux que nous recyclons en raison de sa capacité à être recyclé indéfiniment sans compromettre la qualité. Pour comprendre pourquoi le recyclage de métaux est si important, examinons certains des avantages environnementaux. Réduction des émissions et de la consommation d'énergie Les rebuts de métaux jouent un rôle clé dans la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre et de la consommation de ressources. Par exemple, le recyclage de l'aluminium seul permet d'économiser 95 % de l'énergie par rapport aux processus d'extraction et de raffinage, réduisant ainsi considérablement l'impact environnemental de la production de métal. Préservation des ressources naturelles Le recyclage de métaux diminue le besoin d'extraire des matières premières par le biais de l'exploitation minière et de l'exploitation de carrières, préservant ainsi les terres, les ressources naturelles et les habitats utilisés par la faune. Avantages économiques et sociaux Le secteur du recyclage stimule les économies régionales, crée des emplois et favorise des pratiques durables. Le recyclage de métaux est également un moyen efficace de détourner les déchets des décharges locales, tout en réduisant le besoin de métaux extraits. Le recyclage de métaux est une victoire pour l'environnement ! #EathDay #EarthDay2024 #MetalRecycling #Sustainability #Recycling
