Short answer: Recycled steel goes into construction steel, car parts, appliances and cans, recycled aluminium into new cans, vehicle parts, window frames and packaging, and recycled copper into wiring, plumbing and electronics, and because metals can be melted and reused many times without losing their basic properties, much of the metal in everyday products has been through the cycle before.
