metals
usually separated into: aluminium (drinks cans) - non-magnetic, and steel (food tins) - magnetic (aerosols can be made from either)
you can use a magnet to identify steel from aluminium.
please email us for a free recycle-more magnet.
wash and squash cans before recycling. Only recycle clean aluminium foil. Never pierce or crush aerosols even when empty
only put empty aerosols in recycling schemes i.e. when you cannot get any more out by pressing the button
crisp wrappers (metallised plastic film) cannot be recycled. Metallised plastic springs back when scrunched
