The aim of digitalisation has always been to bring people and companies closer together and facilitate communication. Today, it has become a crucial tool for the industry, allowing for improved efficiency, cost reduction and, undoubtedly, better decision making.
This is how ScrapAd, the first digital platform for buying and selling recyclable material with end-to-end management, was created, allowing recyclers to do business globally in a simple, transparent and secure way. On this occasion, we are launching a new version of the platform in which we have improved several aspects to make it an even more intuitive, agile and easy to use portal for all its users.
This platform, which emerged as an idea in Las Vegas and was finally developed in Eibar thanks to the founders Samuel Ruiz de Lorenzo and Sandra Montes Pérez, has been reinvented once again to provide optimised functionalities, always with the focus on our public and users.
What’s new on the new ScrapAd platform?
This transactional platform is still as secure as it was at the beginning, but it has become much more agile and easier to use.
- It can be used from mobile phones, as this new version is designed to be used from computers, tablets and mobiles.
- The platform’s internal search engine has been improved, offering more information about the materials published in the advertisements, so that users can find exactly what they need.
- Thanks to the new Transactions section we have developed, you will be able to manage all your transactions from start to finish. Moreover, with the chat you will be able to negotiate the price of the material, reach an agreement with the other party, sign the contract and keep you informed about the transport status of your material in detail.
- Notifications have also been improved, where you can receive alerts when advertisements of interest are published or when there are movements in your negotiations for the material or scrap metal trading or in your account. You will also be able to receive them via WhatsApp.
These are some of the new and improved features of ScrapAd’s scrap marketplace, in addition to the new interface that makes it easier to use on a day-to-day basis.
ScrapAd already has more than 1,600 registered companies from 85 countries, as well as more than 400 types of advertised materials. Samuel Ruiz de Lorenzo, CEO of this technology startup, is clear about the reasons for this growth. “We are very grateful to our users, because thanks to them and their recommendations, we have built a more agile ScrapAd that will allow them to find the best destination for each material. All this, without worrying about location, without worrying about language… without fear of non-payment and fraud. Thanks to ScrapAd, companies in the sector have a tool to help them in their day-to-day business with total security”.
