About American Iron & Metal (AIM)

American Iron & Metal (AIM) is a family-owned, Canada-based company founded in 1936. Since that day, AIM has grown to be recognized as one of the World’s most sophisticated metal recyclers, specializing in the recovery and recycling of scrap metal by-products. With the growth and support of our 4,000+ valued employees, we have evolved into a successful and multifaceted company with a global footprint and over 125 sites worldwide. The primary reason? An effective and thorough development strategy.

Today, AIM’s operations are headed by its founder’s successors: Herbert, Ronald, and Ricky Black, who have vowed to uphold the company’s long-established standards for quality. From its humble Canadian origins, we have grown to become a sophisticated leader in ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling (AIM Recycling), decommissioning & demolition (Delsan AIM), auto-parts sales & recycling (AIM Kenny U-Pull), manufacturing of solder assemblies (AIM Global Solder Solutions), construction waste recycling (AIM Eco-Centre), and production of customized industrial & mining products (AIM Minesource).
