Aurubis Richmond
“Georgia on My Mind”
LSIS is excited to be selected as the Security Systems Integrator for the new Aurubis Richmond multimetal recycling plant in Augusta Georgia.
This state-of-the-art recycling facility will have multiple High-Tech Security Systems installed. From thermal radar perimeter protection systems to access control, turnstiles, a dedicated security network, and IP video, site safety and security will be a major focus of this new facility.
Once fully online, Aurubis Richmond, USA, will have the capacity to process about 90,000 tons of complex recycling materials annually. These include printed circuit boards, copper cables, and other metal-containing recycling materials. Much of this material in the US is either shipped to Asia and Europe or trucked to local landfills.
“The US currently produces about 6 million tons of recycling materials that contain valuable metals. We want to take advantage of this great potential and help ensure that these materials get reused. They are critical input materials for many industries in the US”, said Roland Harings.
“We are excited to welcome Aurubis as one of more than 500 German companies with operations in Georgia and congratulate our state and local economic development teams on bringing this sustainability-focused company to Augusta,” said Governor Brian Kemp. “As the largest single investment made by a German company in Georgia history, this groundbreaking represents what is made possible in the Peach State by our strong partnerships and world-class business assets.”
