G.A. RITTENHOUSE
The plant decommissioning and asset recovery division of G.A. Rittenhouse’s furnace operations. Equipment we recover that cannot be re-sold is melted into new metal — which is why we can price work other contractors walk away from.
A paper mill is one of the few sites where the metal genuinely rivals the equipment in value. Machine frames, dryer cans and the bronze in the wet end add up to tonnages that make the melt side of our business decisive rather than incidental.
Complete machine clauses, wet end through reel. Resold whole where a buyer exists, sectioned where not.
Dryer cans, hoods and steam systems — substantial cast iron and steel tonnage.
Digesters, washers, screens, recovery boilers and evaporators.
Winders, sheeters, coaters and roll-handling equipment.
Wet-end bronze, bearings and bushings. Graded as alloy and melted in-house.
Mill structures, frames and buildings. We clear it because we can place it.
Equipment with a working second life is worth more running than poured, and we will tell you which is which rather than quietly melting the difference. Why that gap is so wide.
We own the furnaces, so recovered metal has a floor price we can quote on the day instead of after finding a buyer. How the melt side works.
Rigging, hauling and permits are ours. On remote or constrained sites this decides more of the economics than the equipment does.
Most closures cut across more than one of these. All industries we serve.
Machine clauses and metal tonnage price very differently. We will tell you which side of the line each asset falls on.
