Operations in Action

 

The gears start turning when a customer's order reaches us from the sales team. We set up the necessary transactions and engage directly with the customer, a crucial step in understanding unique needs, especially for larger deals involving prepayment, factoring, and financing considerations.

 

Tailored Financing Solutions

 

Financing & Factoring

For sellers, we offer quick prepayment, and for buyers, extended payment terms, creating a win-win situation for both parties.

 

Logistics is our specialty

 

Transportation

Are your materials in need of specialized transportation? Whether it's oversized cargo requiring big bags or specific vehicles like walking floor trucks, we've got you covered. Our expertise lies in carefully selecting the optimal truck type, managing packaging intricacies, and handling entry logistics seamlessly. 

 

From start to finish, we ensure your materials are transported with precision and care, taking the stress off your shoulders.

 

Documentation

Our Metaloop portal is our centralized hub, making finding documentation easy, ordering and tracking deliveries, and more. 

 

But we know human contact is crucial in many circumstances – which is why you have a personal Metaloop contact. With ongoing personal and digital support, we are always here to assist you and meet your metal scrap needs.

 

International Partnerships

We've strategically built a robust logistics network, leveraging well-placed warehouse locations and a reliable network of scrap yards and transport companies across Europe and beyond.

 

These partnerships ensure the metal's quality remains uncompromised and minimize transportation distances between buyers and sellers. By harnessing this network of trusted collaborators, we operate with efficiency and an eco-conscious approach. 

 

This network empowers us to handle urgent requests and provide flexible container solutions, a far cry from our early days when such flexibility was hard to come by.

 

For you, this means receiving top-tier products while reflecting your commitment to quality and sustainability.

 

Transparent Coordination

Precise and smooth communication is at the core of what we do. We collaborate closely with you to synchronize pickups, packaging methods, and delivery logistics. 

 

Whether choosing the most suitable transport mode, efficiently managing the waste collection through our container partners, or ensuring punctual pickups, we aim to streamline the entire process. Your convenience is our priority.

 

Your Success Fuels Ours

Our philosophy centers around cooperation and teamwork – meaning your triumphs act as the driving force behind our own accomplishments.

Railways of Success

 

Curious to hear some examples?

  1. Moving Aluminum throughout Europe:

With two of our close partners, we've established a highly efficient monthly system for transporting multiple tons of aluminum shredder material. Thanks to all parties involved, several monthly trucks are now being transported efficiently and without issues.  

 

Overcoming language barriers, the process now runs smoothly. Precise coordination, timely documentation, and clear communication have resulted in a successful ongoing operation. 

 

  1. Delivery via Railway: 

Transporting tons of materials via the Deutsche Bahn initially presented challenges. It took two months to fine-tune the process, but once established, it became a model of consistency. 

 

Our operations team's initial effort and dedication paved the way for a streamlined and efficient process.
