Zinc scrap we source

Zinc scrap is sourced from approved industrial streams and segregated by type. Clear separation keeps the material suitable for processing and recovery, and approved zinc is prepared for responsible downstream use. Zinc sits in our non ferrous category, alongside aluminium, copper, brass and lead, and we sort and grade these metals to preserve their value and recovery potential.

Zinc ingots and alloys we produce

Zinc in Oman from Al Thail Group means zinc ingots and alloys, produced from recycled zinc scrap. We also make custom zinc alloys to the requirements of the customer.

Produced at Madayn Sohar

Zinc is produced at Madayn Sohar (Non Ferrous Division) in Sohar, our flagship facility, where procurement, processing, recycling and manufacturing work as one connected chain. Approved scrap comes in, is processed and recovered, and leaves as finished metal products. Everything is brought together on one site under a single operation, from scrap intake to manufacturing.

Inspection and testing are carried out along the process so that each batch meets its required specification before release. Health, safety and environmental controls protect people and operations, and emissions, waste and residues are managed responsibly in line with applicable regulations.

Zinc and brass

Zinc is also one of the two metals in brass. Our brass ingots are made from recycled brass and copper-zinc scrap, so our zinc and brass activity is connected.

Quality and specification

Zinc follows the same principle as everything we make: no compromise in quality and specification. Recovered metal is recast and formed into new industrial products, and finished products are checked against specification before release. Logistics support the full chain at Sohar, covering inbound collection of approved material and outbound delivery of finished products, supported by the hub's location in Sohar.

What zinc is used for

Zinc in Oman, as ingots and alloys, is used for galvanizing, die-casting, brass production and general industrial applications. Zinc is supplied globally, based on the specification each customer requires.
