But most scrap metals saw price falls.

Mixed paper rose by £5 per tonne on the back of strong export demand, but other paper grades were stable.

LDPE 98/2 was up by £10 per tonne with more interest from the international market in particular for the material. No change was seen for other plastic grades.

Copper was down by £150 per tonne, while brass eased back by £100 per tonne on the back of high stores of material on the LME.

Aluminium was unchanged.
