We strip cable for a living and we've sold to half the yards in the Randstad. Nobody grades as transparently as these people — the sample they show you is the sample you get paid on.

Copper wire, graded the old-fashioned way — by hand, by eye, by scale
Copper is the backbone of this business. Our graders separate every load into clean trade grades before a single euro changes hands, so demolition contractors, electricians and cable recyclers always know exactly what they're being paid for.
- MBMillberry — bright, uncoated, unalloyed wire ≥ 1.6 mm, top price
- #1Bright & Shiny — clean #1 copper wire, free of solder and corrosion
- #2Second grade — oxidised, painted or soldered wire and light gauge
- INSInsulated cable — household and industrial cable, priced by copper content
The black stream
Rubber scrap that goes back to work — not to landfill
End-of-life tyres and industrial rubber are a volume game, and we play it properly. Crumb is ground to spec, steel bead and textile are pulled out magnetically, and every tonne is routed to the highest-value outlet: new rubber products, surfaces, or energy recovery.
- CRBTyre crumb — 10–20 mm granulate for surfaces and moulded goods
- EPDEPDM offcuts — roofing and sealing membrane production waste
- NRNatural rubber rejects — factory seconds and unvulcanised compound
- TDFTyre-derived fuel — shredded feedstock for licensed energy plants
From gate to payment
How a load moves through our yard
Weigh in
Drive onto our certified weighbridge. Gross weight is printed and logged before your load is touched — the ticket is yours to keep.
Grade in the open
A grader sorts your material in front of you and explains every deduction. No black-box pricing, no surprises at the counter.
Process in-house
Stripping, granulation, baling and shredding happen on site across two countries, so we capture the full value of every tonne.
Paid on the spot
Net weight times grade price, transferred the same day by secure bank payment. Container exporters get free shipping on full loads.

100% secure payment, every time
Bank transfers only, receipted against your weighbridge ticket. Open seven days, 09:00 to 20:00, with support on call around the clock.
"Scrap is only scrap until it's weighed, graded and paid for. Everything after that is raw material."
Word from the yard gate
Traders, contractors and recyclers who keep coming back
Three containers of copper wire scrap a month, picked up and shipped without us touching a single document. The free container shipping is not a gimmick, it's the whole reason we switched.
Our tyre crumb has to hit a strict 10–20 mm spec with under 1% steel residue. Dutch Scrap has delivered it batch after batch for two years now. That consistency is rare in this trade.
