ScrapDesk tracks every acquisition, sort, process and sale — so you always know your real profit margin after yield loss. Not guesses. Actual numbers.
The problem
Revenue looks fine. But after yield loss, stripping time, and supplier costs — the real number is often very different.
After paying for the load, losing weight to yield, and stripping time — your real profit is much lower than your head says. Most operators only find out at the end of the month. Or never.
Tax time is a scramble through photos, texts, and bank statements. There's no way to pull up what you paid for a specific load or what your supplier owed you last month.
Which suppliers give you the best material? Which cable types strip highest? Without data, you're guessing — and guessing costs money.
How it works
Log the weight, price, and supplier in 30 seconds. Even walk-ins. ScrapDesk calculates your cost-per-kg automatically.
Break the load into categories — single core, twin & earth, multi-core, low grade. Assign weights to each batch.
Strip it, weigh the clean copper out. ScrapDesk calculates your yield % for that batch and category — instantly.
Log the sale, assign inventory. ScrapDesk shows you the exact profit margin after cost and yield loss. No spreadsheet required.
Analytics
Revenue is a vanity number if you don't know your cost. ScrapDesk shows you monthly revenue, profit, spend, and copper processed — in one view, with a single glance.
