The Gleisdorf-based company Binder+Co specialises in the processing of bulk and recycling material. A large area of this is metal sorting, which we present in an understandable and entertaining way with the help of an explanatory animation. The film provides an insight into the materials management of our society and deals with topics relating to recycling, the green economy and the interaction between the environment and the economy. Focussing on metal waste, the film answers the question of why it is sorted and what role Binder+Co plays in this.
