The main participants in the copper cathode market are mining and smelting companies producing copper in the form of cathodes, and other companies engaged in copper processing, which use cathodes to produce wire rod, flat bars, pipes, sheets, and belts.
Copper cathodes are usually bought upon a weight basis, and are normally shipped unpacked, often bound together with metal bands. During handling of bundled cathodes, care should be taken that rough handling does not cause breakage of metal bands.
From its activity in this field, Retro’s market share is growing continuously, aiming to pass the benchmark of 50,000 metric tons per year.
