Scrap metal export from the Benelux via Antwerp
We buy ferrous and non-ferrous scrap across Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg and ship it in containers from the Port of Antwerp-Bruges to steel mills and foundries abroad.
Scrap metal from the Benelux, shipped from Antwerp
The Benelux generates a steady flow of scrap from demolition, electrical installation, manufacturing and car dismantling. Damtrade collects that material from yards, contractors and workshops, sorts it to recognised grades and sells it to overseas buyers who need consistent quality.
Every load is weighed on a calibrated scale, photographed during container stuffing and shipped with full export documentation, so buyers know exactly what they receive and sellers across the Benelux are paid on collection.
- Collection anywhere in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg
- Payment on collection after weighing
- Annex VII documents for green-listed scrap
- Container photos and weight tickets for buyers
