We’re Building a Better Way for Factories and Recyclers to Trade Scrap
Scrap trading keeps factories efficient and recyclers running — but if you’ve ever dealt with it directly, you know the process is often slower and more manual than it needs to be.
Prices are unclear.
Coordination takes time.
Too much depends on phone calls and personal contacts.
We’re currently building a simple digital platform to make scrap trading between factories and recycling companies clearer, more reliable, and less painful — without changing how the industry actually works.
This post explains what we’re building and how it’s meant to help.
Why Scrap Trading Still Feels Hard
From conversations with factories and recycling partners, the same frustrations come up again and again.
Factories selling scrap often struggle with:
- Not knowing whether today’s price is fair
- Relying on the same buyer again and again
- Chasing pickups and payments
Recycling factories buying scrap face:
- Unpredictable supply
- Inconsistent quality
- Too much time spent coordinating small deals
The market exists.
The problem is how disconnected everything still is.
What We’re Building
Instead of a public marketplace, we’re building a focused B2B matching platform designed for real industrial workflows.
The goal is simple:
- Help factories sell scrap more easily
- Help recyclers find steady supply
- Reduce back-and-forth and guesswork
No hype. No “Uber for scrap.”
Just a system that supports how people already work.
How the System Works
Here’s the basic flow we’re developing.
flowchart TB
A["Factory lists scrap"] --> B["System checks scrap type & location"]
B --> C["Matched recyclers are notified"]
C --> D["Recyclers send offers"]
D --> E["Factory accepts an offer"]
E --> F["Pickup is coordinated"]
F --> G["Scrap delivered & checked"]
G --> H["Payment completed"]
H --> I["Transaction history updated"]
Everything stays structured, but decisions stay human.
How This Is Different from Traditional Brokers
We’re not trying to replace relationships — we’re trying to make them easier to manage.
What’s different:
- You see price ranges, not guesses
- Matching is based on data, not cold calls
- Past transactions are recorded
- Reliability builds over time
Factories stay in control.
Recyclers get more predictability.
Built to Start Small and Grow Naturally
Industrial systems don’t change overnight, and this one won’t either.
We’re starting with:
- Limited scrap categories
- Regional matching
- Simple workflows
As usage grows, the system can support:
- Recurring scrap sales
- Better price trends
- Supply planning
- ESG and waste reporting
Who This Is For
This platform is designed for:
- Factories with regular scrap output
- Recycling companies needing steady material
- Operations teams tired of manual coordination
- Companies that want clearer data, not more paperwork
Where We Are Right Now
The core system is under development, focusing on:
- Reliable matching
- Clear deal tracking
- Practical, industrial-friendly usability
We’re shaping it around real workflows, not assumptions.
Want to Get Involved?
If your company:
- Sells industrial scrap, or
- Buys scrap for recycling
and wants a simpler, more transparent way to work, we’d love to talk.
If you reach out, it helps if you include:
- Whether you’re a factory or recycler
- Scrap type
- Rough volume and location
We’ll follow up and continue the conversation from there.
