Metalrok Ltd has been at the forefront of Gibraltar’s metal recycling industry for over 50 years, evolving from a small operation into a key player in sustainable waste management.
Founded by Mr. Sestilio Civicchioni at its current location on Flint Road, the company was built on the principles of resource conservation and environmental responsibility. Over the decades, Metalrok has specialized in the recycling of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, the disposal of end-of-life vehicles, cable peeling, and the safe handling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). As Gibraltar modernized, so did Metalrok, continually adopting new technologies and expanding its services to meet the growing demand for efficient waste recycling.
Today, under the ownership of Mr. Elias Tapiero, Metalrok continues to lead the industry, not only maintaining its long-standing metal recycling practices but also expanding into hazardous waste disposal. With a firm commitment to sustainability, the company plays a crucial role in reducing landfill waste and promoting the circular economy. By ensuring that metals and other recyclable materials are repurposed rather than discarded, Metalrok upholds its motto: “Recycling is important – it is the only way forward in keeping our Earth’s natural resources for future generations.” Through innovation, dedication, and a passion for environmental responsibility, Metalrok remains a trusted name in Gibraltar’s recycling efforts, striving to create a cleaner and more sustainable future.
