Share the essentials
Send photos, a description, approximate quantity and location. Include reference codes or composition data when available.
OUR PROCESS
A clear route from material to offer.
Every batch is considered individually. Start by showing us the material and sharing the essential details.
Send for evaluationFOUR STEPS
How we work together.
The process and documents depend on the material and transaction location.
Confirm suitability
We consider the material category, condition and origin information. Before a transaction, we may request documents supporting supplier identity, authority to sell and material origin.
Discuss evaluation
An offer depends on composition, quality, quantity and market conditions. Where photos are insufficient, we discuss further identification or analysis.
Agree on next steps
Acceptance location, transport, documents and payment are discussed individually for each batch and applicable requirements.
MATERIAL ANALYSIS
A better understanding of composition.
The analytical approach depends on the material and the evaluation need.
XRF analysis
XRF provides rapid elemental information for the tested surface or sample. For a mixed batch, a single reading does not establish the value of the entire lot.
Chemical laboratory testing
Where more detailed composition data is needed, we perform chemical laboratory testing suited to the material. Results are considered alongside sample representativeness and other batch information.
An analytical result is one part of a commercial evaluation. Quantity, condition, recoverability and current market conditions also matter.

INTERNATIONAL ENQUIRIES
Working across borders.
PAIKK welcomes enquiries from markets worldwide. Each potential cross-border transaction is reviewed individually against material classification, origin and destination rules, applicable sanctions, required permits, partner due diligence and logistics. An enquiry does not itself confirm that a shipment can be accepted or moved.
