Scraplytics for Ferrous Recycling
Ferrous is a volume business where margin lives in grade discipline and freight. Capture grade at the weighbridge, cost stock as it moves, and see margin per grade instead of per month.
One operations dashboard for ferrous recycling - scale tickets, inventory, dispatch and accounts.
What ferrous scrap software has to get right
Drawn from real conversations with iron and steel scrap processors, shredders and heavy melt yards.
Grade is decided at the scale and forgotten
HMS 1, HMS 2, shredded and turnings all get weighed in and recorded loosely. By the time the load is sold, the grade that was actually bought cannot be reconstructed.
Freight is not in the margin picture
Ferrous moves at low value per tonne, so transport is a big share of cost. A deal priced without freight modelled can look profitable and still lose money.
Stock is a Friday spreadsheet
Tonnage on the ground is updated once a week, so buyers quote against numbers that are already stale and the yard over-buys or runs short.
Margin is only known at month end
Buying and selling sit in different records, so which grades actually earn is a matter of opinion until the accounts close.
