Revolutionising the scrap‑metal industry

Meet the Client

ScrapBays approached Sonin with an objective to revolutionise the scrap metal industry through the creation of a new digital marketplace, taking what has historically been a local relationship based business to a national trading platform.

With a target to enhance the journey for every stakeholder from a single plumber, up to large multinationals buying huge quantities of material ScrapBays needed to take the time to understand in depth the value brought to each group to ensure the platforms successful launch

With complex regulatory requirements and transaction flows the platform had to be both robust and secure enough to pass compliance needs and frictionless enough to ensure a great user experience.
