About this industry
Scrap trading buys mixed material by weight from many small suppliers, sorts it into grades worth very different amounts, and sells in bulk. Rates move constantly, weighbridge accuracy is central to both buying and selling, and much of the buying is cash-based with informal suppliers.
Common operational problems
- Mixed incoming material must be sorted into grades with very different values
- Rates move constantly, so buying margin is uncertain
- Weighbridge accuracy determines profit on every transaction
- Many small suppliers with informal, often cash, settlement
- Sorted output weight rarely matches input weight
Example workflows
Inward weighing with supplier and vehicle recorded
Sorting into grades with output weights
Input to output weight reconciliation
Rate-driven purchase and sale pricing
Supplier payment against weighed receipts
