Copper

Overview

Copper is a reddish-brown metallic element valued for its exceptional electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and ductility. It is one of the most widely used industrial metals globally.

Mined and used for millennia, it’s recyclable without loss of quality and crucial for modern technology, including electric vehicles and renewable energy infrastructure.

From electrical and thermal conductivity to its antimicrobial properties, copper is a versatile metal with a long history of making the world work better.

TRADE PROCESS

Overview
Our trade process spreads across CIF and FOB depending on the buyer's preference.

Here's what they entail:

1). Cost Insurance and Freight (CIF): Here, the seller will handle everything from loading the vessel, paying for insurance, and sending the product to wherever the buyer wants it delivered.

2). Freight On Board (FOB): Here, the seller pays for the transportation of the goods to the port of shipment, plus loading costs, while the buyer pays the cost of marine freight transport, insurance, unloading, and transportation from the originating port to the final destination.
