About the Scrap Market in Tandur
Tandur in Telangana's Vikarabad district is widely known for its limestone and cement industry, with multiple cement plants operating in the surrounding region. The heavy machinery used in quarrying and cement production undergoes frequent wear, creating a dependable stream of industrial scrap.
Crusher jaw plates made of manganese steel, kiln shell segments, and steel conveyor components are high-value scrap items unique to this market. Manganese steel scrap can trade at INR 38-48/kg—well above ordinary steel—while standard structural scrap from plant renovations averages INR 27-31/kg.
Sellers who can identify and separate manganese steel from regular carbon steel will capture significantly higher returns per lot. Establishing contacts with cement plant procurement departments may open doors to purchasing worn parts at scrap value and reselling to specialized alloy recyclers.
