How Skrotify is changing the scrap industry — once and for all

For decades, the scrap industry has been old-fashioned, cash-driven and contained. But now digital winds are blowing through the scrap heaps. With Skrotify at the forefront, there is a paradigm shift — with transparency, technology and sustainability taking over. It was about time.

An industry that has stood still — until now

The scrap industry has for decades been characterised by:

  • Paper slips and unsecured receipts
  • Random prizes, black money and limited transparency
  • Environmentally safe hazardous waste management
  • Lack of traceability and sustainability reporting

This is an industry that manages Sweden's most important raw materials — yet it has fallen behind in digitalisation, transparency and trust.

That's why change is necessary — now more than ever

The world demands circular solutions, and metal recycling is a key player. But in order for it to work, it requires:

  • 💻 Digital control and traceability
  • 🌱 Environmental documentation and CO₂ reporting
  • 📈 Market-based, fair prices
  • 📲 Simplicity for users — from construction giant to individual

It is here Scrotify coming in.

What Skrotify is changing — in concrete terms

Skrotify has built Sweden's first 100% digital scrap platform. It is reshaping the entire industry by:

✅ Replace receipts with real-time digital settlement
✅ Offer transparent scrap prices updated daily
✅ Provide environmental data and sustainability certificates automatically
✅ Make it possible to book pickup, weigh, follow and sell directly from your mobile

Selling scrap should be as easy as ordering food online -- and as transparent as declaring.

Industry faces resistance -- but the future is already here

There are actors who resist. Who want to hold on to cash, shoddy prices and informal setups.

But the future always wins.

Scrotify grows every day thanks to:

  • Users who are tired of guessing games
  • Companies that require sustainability reporting
  • A new generation wanting to know what their metal is actually worth

A new culture of scrap — transparency, safety and technology

Skrotify creates a new kind of scrap culture:

  • 📊 Data controls, not guesses
  • 🔒 Security in every transaction
  • ♻️ Environmental value becomes clear — and measurable
  • 🙌 Everyone gets access — not just the initiated in the “scrap world”

Conclusion -- it wasn't just about time. It was necessary.

We are in the midst of a materials crisis, a climate crisis and a crisis of confidence. The scrap industry didn't just need to be refreshed -- it needed a reboot.

Scrotify makes it possible.
