Fair market access has long been one of the most contested issues in scrap trading. Regional buyer dominance, opaque pricing practices, and restricted market visibility have historically limited participation-particularly for smaller sellers and new entrants.
ScrapTrade launches with a clear and deliberate commitment: ensure fair market access for all verified participants, regardless of size, location, or existing market influence.
Owned and operated by MOBEIUS TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD, ScrapTrade is built as neutral, compliance-first market infrastructure-designed to expand access without distorting free-market dynamics.
Why Fair Market Access Matters in Scrap Trading
In fragmented scrap markets, access inequality often leads to:
- Limited buyer competition
- Suppressed pricing signals
- Restricted seller options
- Reduced market efficiency
As recycling volumes increase and sustainability expectations grow, the industry requires open, transparent marketplaces that allow value to be determined through genuine competition.
Fair market access is not a policy statement-it must be embedded into market structure.
How ScrapTrade Delivers Fair Market Access
ScrapTrade enforces fairness through platform design, not discretionary control.
1. Open Participation for Verified Users
All buyers and sellers who meet verification requirements can participate, preventing exclusion based on regional or commercial power.
2. Transparent Listing Visibility
Listings are visible to eligible buyers across the network, reducing information asymmetry and improving competitive outcomes.
3. Market-Driven Price Discovery
Multiple buyers can engage with listings simultaneously, ensuring prices emerge through demand-not control.
4. Neutral Platform Governance
ScrapTrade does not prioritise specific participants or manipulate exposure. Access rules are applied consistently across the marketplace.
Fairness Without Market Intervention
A core principle of ScrapTrade’s approach is fair access without interference.
- ScrapTrade does not set prices
- It does not favour large buyers over smaller ones
- It does not restrict competition
Instead, it provides equal access to the same market infrastructure, allowing outcomes to be determined by participation and value alignment.
Governance as the Foundation of Fair Access
Fair market access is only sustainable when backed by governance and accountability.
