CMC Recycling
About Us
Recycling is the future. It’s also our history.
For some, recycling may seem like some recent trend. But here at CMC, we've been at it for more than a century. CMC began in 1915 as a humble family-run scrap metal processing facility in Dallas, Texas. Since that time, we've grown to become a Fortune 500 company and global leader in metals recycling, manufacturing and fabrication. With recycling centers spread across the southern and eastern United States, CMC has the capacity to process and ship more than four million tons of scrap metal each year.
