Sustainable scrap management for property owners and housing associations
Real estate companies and condominium associations have a unique opportunity to contribute to the circular economy through smarter handling of scrap metal. At Skrotify.se, we make it easy to convert end-of-life materials into climate benefits and revenue.
Why recycling is important for real estate
Over time, large amounts of metal waste accumulate in real estate: old elevator parts, piping systems, heating boilers, wiring, ventilation drums and construction debris during renovations. Much of this is high-purity metals such as copper, aluminum and stainless steel.
Properties are full of valuable material that many miss out on when it comes time for renovation or demolition
Recycling correctly means:
- Lower waste costs in reconstructions and demolitions
- New revenues from scrap sales
- Clear CO2 savings to be accounted for in sustainability work
Common Challenges and How to Solve Them
Often, scrap metal ends up in mixed construction waste, leading to unnecessary landfill costs and missed recycling opportunities. In addition, procedures for monitoring material flows and CO₂ effects are sometimes lacking.
With Skrotify, property owners and BRFs get a smooth and digital solution:
- We provide sorting vessels and containers for different metal types
- Pickup is easily booked in our portal
- CO₂ savings and recycling certificates are automatically generated
We help property owners not only take care of their waste, but turn it into an active asset
Three Steps to Better Recycling in Real Estate
- Plan your scrap handling early when renovating or demolishing.
- Set up sorting stations for metal already in place.
- Use Scrotify's portal for booking, tracking and reporting.
Small changes can make a big difference, both for the environment and for the economy of the property.
