Company Overview

Living Our Values
Schupan & Sons, Inc. was incorporated in 1968 as a non-ferrous industrial scrap processor, by my father, Nelson Schupan. With very humble beginnings, the company has evolved into several metal and plastic-related areas.

We do business on a national and international level at each division, with locations in four states.

Schupan Industrial Recycling Services operates a number of scrap processing yards for ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Schupan Aluminum and Plastic Sales is a large modern facility distributing primarily aluminum and plastic mill products.
Schupan Recycling is one of the largest volume processors and brokers of used beverage containers in the U.S. We also have a brokerage office in Chicago, Illinois.

Our formula for success for more than fifty years is simple: Treat our customers, employees and consumers as we would wish to be treated. We are proud to build relationships that add value for our customers and give back to the communities that provide opportunities for our employees. We are constantly looking for ways to better serve our communities. We believe in old-fashioned values – values that have enabled Schupan & Sons, Inc. to receive awards recognizing our outstanding service and excellent work environment.
