Industry standards are the foundation of trust, interoperability, and long-term sustainability in scrap trading. Yet much of the traditional scrap industry still operates through fragmented practices, inconsistent documentation, and informal enforcement.
ScrapTrade was designed to align scrap trading with modern industry standards, combining digital infrastructure, compliance awareness, and neutral governance. Operated by MOBEIUS TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD, an Australian registered company, ScrapTrade positions standards alignment as a core operating principle, not an afterthought.
Why Industry Standards Matter in Scrap Trading
Industry standards ensure:
- Consistent trade practices
- Reduced operational and compliance risk
- Interoperability across regions and markets
- Higher confidence for buyers, sellers, and regulators
Without standards alignment, markets remain opaque and inefficient.
ScrapTrade’s Standards-First Philosophy
ScrapTrade’s approach is based on one principle:
A global marketplace must align with recognised industry and regulatory standards to be credible.
Rather than imposing informal rules, ScrapTrade aligns platform operations with established expectations across governance, data handling, and market conduct.
