The Bay Metal Group prides in its environmental practices starting with its greenspace location in Richfield, Ohio. Ensuring zero environemntal impact to the customer is our top priority to the owner and management. To meet that demand, the following engineering measures have been taken:

  • A state-of-the-art 60,000 square foot facility was designed and built to house all processing operations and material storage areas under roof,
  • A specially designed oil collection system was installed to capture residual oils from cutting and stamping scrap, which is then shipped to recyclers for various secondary uses,
  • A comprehensive system of drains and catch basins were constructed in the receiving docks to direct all run-offs to an in-ground oil/water separator. Storm water run-off is carefully monitored according to the engineering standards set forth for the scrap industry by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Exhaustive research and comprehensive engineering ensure that B.A.T. (Best Available Technology) standards are met. Bay Metal Conforms to all of the EPA’s industry B.M.P.’s (Best Management Practices) as well.
