Frank-Kelbie metal merchants first opened in Milnbank Road, Dundee in 1946. In the last few years handling and processing equipment has been installed, along with a modern electronic weighbridge. All types of mainly non-ferrous scrap metals, stainless steel and cables are bought by the company in amounts ranging from a few kilos worth up to large amounts from factories, demolition companies, engineers, slaters, electricians, plumbers and other scrap metal merchants.
