Since establishing Raw Metal Corp in 2014, Founder Todd Wanless has helped build the business around strong foundations, continual investment, trusted relationships and a commitment to raising the standard within the scrap metal recycling industry.
From its early beginnings to the growing operation it is today, Raw Metal Corp has continued to invest in infrastructure, equipment, people and processes while expanding its capabilities across domestic, commercial, industrial and resource-sector markets.
Today, the business processes both ferrous and non-ferrous metals and supplies recycled materials to customers across more than 10 countries throughout Asia, the Pacific, the Subcontinent and the Middle East.
Building Raw Metal Corp from the Ground Up
When Todd founded Raw Metal Corp in 2014, the goal was to build a modern, reliable and service-focused recycling business with the capability to grow.
That meant investing not only in equipment and infrastructure, but also in the systems and processes required to operate efficiently and consistently.
Over the years, Raw Metal Corp has continued to strengthen its operational capabilities, allowing the business to process a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals from domestic, commercial and industrial customers.
This commitment to continual improvement has helped create a strong platform for long-term growth.
Investing in Infrastructure and Capability
A major part of Raw Metal Corp’s journey has been ongoing investment in state-of-the-art infrastructure, machinery and recycling equipment.
These investments have helped increase processing capabilities, improve operational efficiency and allow the team to manage a wide range of scrap metal materials.
As the business has expanded, so too has its ability to support larger commercial, industrial and mining customers with reliable recycling and resource recovery solutions.
For Todd, building the right infrastructure has always been about preparing Raw Metal Corp not only for the needs of today, but also for the opportunities ahead.
Taking Australian Recycled Materials to Global Markets
Raw Metal Corp’s growth has extended well beyond its local operations.
Today, recycled materials processed by Raw Metal Corp are exported directly to customers in more than 10 countries across Asia, the Pacific, the Subcontinent and the Middle East.
These international relationships have become an important part of the business and help ensure recovered metals can be returned to productive use within the global manufacturing supply chain.
By connecting Australian recyclable materials with international markets, Raw Metal Corp is helping keep valuable resources in circulation while supporting the broader circular economy.
Our Greatest Asset Has Always Been Our People
Despite the continued investment in machinery, technology and infrastructure, Todd has always believed the greatest strength of Raw Metal Corp is its people.
As Todd says:
“Raw Metal Corp’s biggest asset is the best team that I have ever assembled.”
The commitment of the Raw Metal Corp team has played a major role in the company’s growth and its ability to deliver high standards of service to customers.
Building the right culture, surrounding the business with experienced people and giving the team the tools to perform at their best remain central to Todd’s approach.
It is this combination of people, capability and service that continues to drive Raw Metal Corp forward.
More Than a Decade of Growth
From 2014 to today, Raw Metal Corp has grown significantly, but the fundamentals behind the business remain the same.
Strong relationships, continued investment, dependable service and a willingness to keep improving have helped shape the company into what it is today.
For Todd, the journey has never simply been about becoming a bigger business. It has been about building a sustainable organisation with the right people, the right capabilities and a clear direction for the future.
With more than a decade of experience behind us, Raw Metal Corp continues to look ahead with ambitious plans for further growth and expansion.
