Online Trading and Pricing Websites Form Partnership

The websites Recycling.com, based in London, and Metalprices.com, Basalt, Colo., have announced an information sharing partnership designed to boost the two websites’ global scrap metal businesses.

To enhance the pricing information available to Recycling.com’s members, Metalprices.com will supply its scrap-pricing intelligence to the online trading platform’s member companies. In return, Recycling.com will highlight to its members the range of services offered by Metalprices.com and provide its own market intelligence to Metalprices.com.

Recycling.com, which launched in September 2012, is an online trading platform for recycling ferrous and nonferrous metals, paper and plastics.

Metalprices.com, which was founded in 1955, has recently added European scrap pricing information to its North American datasets.

Mark Baij, CEO of Recycling.com, says, “We are delighted to work with Metalprices.com to provide increased pricing transparency to our members. By increasing transparency, we aim to help our members trade more easily and efficiently with their partners across the globe, while securing better prices for both buyers and sellers.”

Marc Dulin, CEO of Metalprices.com, says, “We are very excited to have partnered with Recycling.com to fill the need in the industry for increased price transparency. We share a common commitment to delivering reliable and accurate prices to the entire metals supply chain, allowing enhanced value to market participants.”
