Freshdi Zinc Scrap suppliers come from 4 countries, led by United Kingdom at 40.0%, as of 15 November 2026.
Only 5 suppliers are currently listing Zinc Scrap, and none have updated their listings in the past 90 days. This means the supply pool is static and likely reflects outdated or long-standing offers—buyers should treat each listing as a potential one-time opportunity rather than a reliable, ongoing source. There are 22 listings available at the moment, which provides a modest range of options for buyers looking for specific grades or packaging. However, with no recent updates, the variety may not reflect current market conditions or availability, so buyers should verify specs directly with suppliers. Suppliers come from 4 countries, with the United Kingdom representing 40.0% of the total. This concentration means the UK is the primary source, offering consistency in quality and volume, but also limits flexibility if buyers need to source from different regions due to logistics or regulatory concerns.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Zinc Scrap listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 31 October 2026 - 22 active listings, 3 buyer requests, 19 source documents, and 189 supply observations from the same period. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Zinc Scrap type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Zinc Scrap, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.

| Point | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
