SCRAP TRADE PRESS RELEASE

ScrapTrade Supports a More Connected, Compliant, and Data-Driven Future for Australia’s Scrap Industry

Australia — The Australian scrap and recycling sector is entering a new phase of operational maturity as digital infrastructure begins to reshape traditional trading models. ScrapTrade, an Australian-developed digital marketplace for scrap materials, is helping drive this transition by delivering a secure, transparent, and compliance-focused platform designed to meet the evolving needs of modern scrap commerce.

The scrap industry is a critical pillar of Australia’s circular economy and resource recovery ecosystem, supporting sustainable manufacturing, infrastructure development, and environmental protection. However, the sector has historically faced persistent structural challenges, including fragmented regional markets, inconsistent access to verified trading partners, and limited pricing transparency. These factors have often created inefficiencies, increased transaction risks, and restricted growth opportunities for many market participants.

ScrapTrade has been purpose-built to address these long-standing industry constraints. By introducing structured digital trading infrastructure, the platform enables verified buyers and sellers to engage in secure, transparent transactions supported by compliance-aligned processes and standardised workflows.

Operating nationally, ScrapTrade supports a diverse range of scrap material categories and facilitates participation from recyclers, scrap processors, demolition companies, manufacturers, commercial operators, and independent suppliers. The platform enables broader market participation by providing access to verified trading networks and national price visibility, helping users make more informed commercial decisions.

ScrapTrade is owned and operated by MOBEIUS TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD, a fully registered Australian company. The platform is developed and maintained in accordance with Australian legal, regulatory, and governance standards, reinforcing trust and accountability across platform transactions.

The platform is built around four core operating principles that underpin its long-term development strategy:

• Transparency Across Transactions — ScrapTrade enhances visibility into pricing, supply availability, and demand dynamics, helping create more balanced and informed market conditions.

• Verified Trading Environment — Participant verification processes are designed to strengthen platform trust while reducing counterparty and transaction risks.

• Embedded Compliance and Governance — The platform integrates structured compliance workflows that support lawful trading practices, documentation requirements, and audit-ready transaction records.

• Accessible National Market Participation — ScrapTrade helps reduce traditional reliance on localised trading relationships by enabling direct connections between verified buyers and sellers across Australia.

ScrapTrade operates strictly as a neutral Scrap digital marketplace infrastructure provider and does not participate in the purchase or sale of scrap materials. Instead, the platform provides the digital framework required for market participants to transact efficiently while maintaining independence and commercial control.

The growth of structured digital trading ecosystems is occurring alongside increased regulatory focus on sustainability, traceability, and environmental accountability. ScrapTrade supports these national priorities by improving transaction traceability, strengthening data transparency, and enabling better reporting across scrap material supply chains.

Looking ahead, ScrapTrade continues to focus on long-term industry alignment and platform capability expansion. Key development priorities include strengthening governance systems, enhancing analytics and reporting tools, supporting high-volume industrial transaction capacity, improving platform usability, and maintaining alignment with evolving environmental and regulatory standards.

ScrapTrade’s long-term vision is to support the establishment of modern, trusted, and scalable digital infrastructure that strengthens Australia’s scrap trading ecosystem while supporting circular economy outcomes and sustainable resource management.
