Steel Drums – Haswell Limited x Al Taka Metal Scrap Trading

The Problem: Traditional Waste Disposal and Limited Supply Chain

In the traditional approach to industrial resource handling, companies like Haswell Limited FZC faced the costly and environmentally damaging practice of dumping all surplus materials in garbage skips. For Haswell, a bitumenious operation based in Ajman, this meant that valuable materials including steel drums, scrap metals, and other recyclable materials were simply disposed of as waste, representing both financial loss and environmental impact.

This wasn't just about disposal costs. The company also had limited supply chain options, typically working with only one to three suppliers for their material needs. This restricted approach meant missing opportunities to create value from waste materials, lacking diverse supplier relationships, and not fully leveraging the potential for cost reduction through recycling and waste-to-product transformation.

Manoj Agarwala, Group Chief Financial Officer of Haswell Limited FZC, shared his experience:

"By introducing The Surpluss is a very good and noble way of introducing resource management. Earlier days we used to dump all our waste in a garbage skip, but nowadays we use those waste as recycling product in terms of making more money, recycling waste and making other output which generates more revenue for the company and the group and also of our neighboring companies from where we exchange their waste and recycle it into new products.
