About the Scrap Market in Nilambur

Nilambur, celebrated as the teak capital of Kerala, combines a thriving timber industry with gold panning traditions along the Chaliyar river. Sawmill infrastructure, furniture manufacturing units, and periodic government timber depot clearances all contribute to the town's scrap metal turnover.

Sawmill blade steel, hardened and tempered, fetches ₹28–₹34/kg—well above ordinary mild steel rates. Brass and bronze hardware from heritage furniture restoration trades at ₹300–₹360/kg, while aluminium from sawmill shed roofing sells at ₹85–₹105/kg.

The Kerala Forest Development Corporation periodically auctions scrap from its Nilambur depot, including vehicle parts and machinery—monitoring their website for notifications is worthwhile. Furniture workshop owners should separate brass hinges and fittings from wood waste during demolition jobs, as even small quantities add up over months. Nearby Manjeri and Malappuram offer alternative dealer networks for price comparison.
