Due to this there is a large demand for non ferrous metals.  Non ferrous metals are used for various purposes in industries. Some of them are used for coating other metals with the presence of iron in them, while some of these metals are used for processes like galvanisation of buckets, tanks, roofs etc.

Non ferrous metals also have some unique properties which make them the most suitable material for specific work. Copper is a very good conductor of electricity thus electric wires are made of copper. Similarly tin, bronze, aluminium, chromium and other metals and alloys have their specific uses. This industry deals with a wide range of products made from these non-ferrous metals including copper, aluminium and others.
