About the Scrap Market in Puttur

Puttur in Karnataka's Dakshina Kannada district thrives on cashew processing, rubber plantations, and a notable cluster of tile and brick manufacturing units. The humid coastal climate accelerates metal corrosion, ensuring a steady flow of replacement-driven scrap into the market.

Corroded roofing steel and GI sheets sell at ₹17–₹22/kg, discounted from standard rates due to rust degradation. Cashew processing machinery parts—stainless steel trays and copper heating coils—fetch ₹70–₹95/kg and ₹420–₹470/kg respectively. Rubber roller shafts from tile factories contribute to the mild steel scrap pool at ₹22–₹26/kg.

Rust reduces scrap value significantly in Puttur's humid environment, so storing metal under covered sheds is a worthwhile investment. The Mangalore recycling market, accessible within 60 km, typically pays ₹3–₹8/kg more for non-ferrous metals than local dealers. Cashew factory owners should schedule scrap sales during the off-season (June–September) when maintenance generates peak volumes.
