Ferrous metals refer to any metal that contains iron. They are favoured for their tensile strength and durability, so are often utilised in housing construction, large-scale piping and industrial containers.

Non-ferrous metals, on the other hand, don’t contain iron. They are much more malleable and lighter than ferrous metals, making them particularly suited for use where strength is required but weight needs to be considered, such as in the aircraft industry.

Steel
Renowned for its toughness and machinability, steel is widely used in the construction and manufacturing industries.

Cast Iron
Hard and resistant to wear, cast iron is perfect for use in a variety of applications from cookware to water pipes and machine tools.

Wrought Iron
Slightly different to most other ferrous metals, wrought iron resists corrosion and oxidation. It is frequently used for 

Aluminium
Not only is aluminium lightweight, but it can also be easily machined and welded. It is used in the manufacturing of aircraft as well as food cans, cars and kitchen utensils.

Copper
Highly ductile, malleable and a good conductor of heat and electricity, copper is a favourable choice for electrical wiring.

Lead
Lead has a low melting point and low tensile strength. It is typically used in electrical power cables, batteries and soldering.
