Nautica Metal Scrap B.V. is a Netherlands-based international supplier and exporter of non-ferrous and ferrous scrap metals. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Zandvoort, the company supplies smelters, foundries, refineries and industrial recyclers in over 30 countries from its Rotterdam loading hub.
The company exports aluminium scrap (UBC, Taint/Tabor, Tense, Tread, 6061 and 6063 extrusion, wheels), copper scrap (Millberry, Berry/Candy, Birch/Cliff, copper wire), brass scrap (Honey, Pale, Ocean), stainless steel scrap (304, 316, 18-8 mix), and ferrous grades including HMS 1&2, shredded steel, used rails and busheling.

The company exports CIF and FOB to buyers across Asia-Pacific (India, China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan), the Middle East (UAE, Turkey, Saudi Arabia), Africa, and the Americas.
Pricing is LME-linked: every quotation is anchored to the London Metal Exchange cash settlement for the underlying base metal, adjusted by a grade discount, packaging density, container fill and freight to the destination port. Customers receive transparent LME percentage or differential pricing, often discounted below prevailing market rates for long-term contract buyers.
Customers include secondary aluminium smelters, copper refineries, brass ingot makers, stainless steel mills, electric arc furnace (EAF) steel producers, foundries, die-casters, cable manufacturers, and industrial recyclers sourcing secondary raw materials for circular-economy production.
Direct European export without middlemen, consistent industrial-grade supply, SGS and third-party inspection on every shipment, LME-linked pricing discounted below prevailing market rates, flexible 20GP / 40HC container or bulk-vessel quantities, long-term contract availability, fast Rotterdam loading and complete export documentation (bill of lading, packing list, commercial invoice, EUR.1, Annex VII).
