Company registration details are provided to counterparties on request as part of the due-diligence exchange that precedes any transaction.
Disclaimer
The content of this website is provided for general information about our trading activity. It does not constitute an offer, a solicitation, or a commitment to buy or sell at any price.
No price, discount, yield or reference published or described on this site constitutes a quotation. A firm price is issued only against an identified parcel, in writing, once grade, weight and delivery basis have been agreed.
Grade descriptions and ISRI designations shown on this site are commercial summaries. The current ISRI Scrap Specifications Circular remains the authoritative definition of each grade.
Energy and recycling figures shown on the responsible sourcing page are widely cited industry orders of magnitude, not measurements of our own operations.
Privacy
When you send an enquiry through this website, we receive the information you enter in the form: company, contact name, email address, telephone number, and the details of the parcel you describe.
That information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and, if a transaction follows, to establish the counterparty file that our compliance framework requires. It is not sold, rented, or shared for marketing purposes.
Counterparty records associated with a completed transaction are retained for the period required by applicable Swiss commercial and anti-money-laundering law.
You may ask us what information we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted where no legal retention obligation applies. Write to stark.metalstrading@gmail.com.
