03

Evaluate

Technical fit, compliance, logistics and end-market potential.

04

Structure

Price basis, inspection, delivery, payment and transaction terms.

Transaction inputs

Built around material facts.

Every transaction is different. We review the commercial and technical information required to determine whether an opportunity can move forward.

01

Representative assay or specification

02

Moisture and particle-size distribution

03

Quantity, frequency and readiness date

04

Origin, current location and destination

05

Packaging, loading and transport options

06

Inspection, sampling and document requirements

Regulated, hazardous or environmentally sensitive materials are considered only after complete characterization and all applicable legal, transport and environmental requirements are satisfied.

Frequently asked

Before you submit.

01Do you buy and sell materials?+

Yes. Chemical Iron and Metal considers both purchase and sale opportunities, including spot transactions, recurring supply and qualified by-product recovery programs.

02What quantities do you consider?+

The focus is commercial bulk volume. The practical minimum depends on value, chemistry, packaging, location and logistics. Send the available quantity and planned frequency for review.

03What information should I send first?+

Start with the material name, origin, form, available quantity, recent assay or specification, moisture, particle size, packaging, photos and location.

04Is every material in the catalogue currently in stock?+

No. The catalogue identifies material opportunities we are prepared to evaluate. Availability, acceptance and terms are always subject to confirmation.

05Can you consider residues and off-specification material?+

Yes, when there is a lawful, technically viable recovery or reuse route. Regulated materials require complete characterization and compliance review before any transaction.
