In our fifth episode that was released in February 2024, we had the pleasure of welcoming Rafael Suchan, the co-founder of METYCLE. This innovative company is revolutionizing the scrap metal industry by providing a platform connecting buyers and sellers worldwide, making recycling more efficient. METYCLE is driving the global shift towards a circular economy in secondary metals through its efforts. We learned that secondary metals are essential in reducing CO2 emissions by up to 95% compared to primary metal production. Rafael shared his insights into the critical role of digitalization in making the metal recycling industry work circularly. He highlighted the steps needed to create a more efficient, reliable, and transparent global marketplace.
