About the Scrap Market in Kasaragod
Kasaragod, Kerala's northernmost district headquarters, sits at the crossroads of Malayali, Tulu, and Kannada cultural influences, with an economy driven by cashew processing, coir manufacturing, and tile production. The tile and brick kilns, combined with cashew factory equipment and residential construction, ensure diverse scrap generation across material types.
Tile kiln grate bars and fire bricks with embedded metal supports, cashew roaster components, and copper wiring from construction projects form the main scrap streams. Iron and steel scrap in Kasaragod trades at ₹24–29 per kg, while copper commands ₹450–540 per kg, generally matching Mangalore market rates given the city's proximity.
Kasaragod's border location between Kerala and Karnataka gives sellers the unique advantage of accessing dealers from both states—obtaining quotes from Mangalore buyers alongside local Kerala dealers often reveals meaningful price differences that can be exploited. Tile kiln operators should schedule scrap disposal during the monsoon kiln shutdown period, when accumulated material can be sorted properly and sold without disrupting production.
