Comments On Clip Subjects: Aluminum is one of the most environmentally beneficial materials to recycle. The energy and water needed to recycle aluminum into new products is about 95 percent less than the amount required to produce new aluminum products from raw materials. Tin cans (bi-metal cans) are made out of tin-plated steel. Recycling tin cans provides an energy savings of approximately 75 percent.
