Factory and industrial scrap

Factory Scrap Procurement for Operating and Closing Plants.

We buy scrap and surplus assets from factories, workshops and industrial units. The offer follows an inspection of material, quantity and how the lot can be collected.

Arbiya Traders buys from businesses. This page is a way to request a valuation or a site inspection. There is no catalogue and nothing is listed for retail sale.

Production scrap

Offcuts, rejects and routine metal waste from an operating line, collected on an agreed schedule or as a one-time lot.

Shutdown lots

Mixed material that comes out when a bay, line or entire plant is being closed.

Surplus machinery

Equipment that is idle, replaced or being sold with the surrounding scrap, subject to identification on site.

Plant metals

Steel and other eligible metals once the grade, contamination and approximate weight are understood.

Who this page is for

  • Factory managers

    A recurring scrap stream or a bay that has to be cleared before the next installation.

  • Closing units

    An industrial unit winding down and selling what can be recovered.

  • Project contractors

    Leftover industrial material from a completed installation, assessed as its own lot.

How the valuation is made

  • Material type and whether grades are segregated
  • Approximate weight or volume, and how it was estimated
  • Contamination, attachments and hazardous items that are out of scope
  • Loading access, weighing arrangements and collection timing
  • Whether machinery is included or the enquiry is scrap only

Acceptance depends on material, condition, quantity and location. Hazardous waste is not part of this service.

Questions before you enquire

Do you buy from a running factory?

Yes. Operating plants often sell process scrap without a shutdown. Collection is planned around production access and safety rules on site.

How is weight established?

The quotation states whether the quantity is an estimate from photographs, a site assessment, or a weighment method agreed for collection.

Can machinery and scrap be one enquiry?

Yes. Describe both. We will say in the quotation which assets are being purchased and which items are excluded.

Is every metal accepted?

No. Grade, contamination and quantity decide it. Tell us what the material is, and send photographs before expecting a number.
