‘Facilitating All Your Environmental Requirements’

WELCOME TO DSD TRADING SOLUTIONS LTD.

DSD Trading Solutions is a brokerage company and acts as an intermediary between metal scrap suppliers and recycling facilities or buyers. Our primary goal is to facilitate the efficient and profitable exchange of scrap metal.

Operating a metal recycling brokerage company requires a combination of industry knowledge, networking skills, and a keen understanding of market dynamics. It’s important to build trust with clients, prioritise environmental sustainability, and stay adaptable in response to changes in the industry and regulations.

Non Ferrous and Ferrous Metals

Ferrous metals contain iron and non-ferrous metals do not. Non-ferrous metals are rarer, more valuable and resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals. Ferrous and non-ferrous metals can both be recycled. Magnetising the iron in ferrous metals can separate ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
