50+ Employees And a Million Smiles

Established in 2015, we are the leader in scrap metal recycling in the United Arab Emirates.

Al Rukn Metal, our operations, is based in Sharjah, UAE., which is a subsidiary of ARM Metal Recycling company, headquartered in Houston, Texas, USA.

Our rapidly expanding organization was founded as a result of deep involvement and comprehensive knowledge of the metals recycling industry gathered around the world.  

We aspire to be best in the metals recycling business with a prime focus on environmental sustainability at the core of all our operations.

The company maintains its dedication to produce a high quality of shredded materials and scrap metal products that meets our customer’s high standards for quality.

Our company

In the early 2010’s, Hasan and his father saw a unique opportunity: the rapidly expanding Dubai and surrounding areas needed recycled metals for production – and quickly.

By studying the industry, the immediate needs of buyers and the recycled metals landscape, they set out to build a facility from the ground up. When a process required equipment that was not available, they built it themselves.

It took 2 years of research and development, but the result was ARM – a leader in recycled metals in Dubai and the UAE. We pride ourselves on focusing on quality in everything we do.
