Soorma Metals LLP, Hospet
We source high-quality scrap from across the globe, dismantle and segregate every lot at our own yard, and supply clean grades to steel plants, foundries and traders in India and overseas.
How a lot moves
Every consignment passes through three moves before it reaches a furnace. Scroll to follow one.
01 Sourced worldwide
Our sourcing partners buy scrap at source in overseas markets and ship it to India: alloy solids, industrial offcuts, end-of-life machinery, cable and castings, mixed the way scrap always arrives.
02 Dismantled & segregated
At our Hospet yard every consignment is opened, dismantled and separated. Ferrous comes away from non-ferrous, and alloys are kept by family, so each buyer receives one consistent grade.
03 Delivered to the melt
Alloy scrap goes directly to steel plants that need it in the charge. Ferrous and non-ferrous grades move through a nationwide trading network to foundries, mills and smelters, and to buyers overseas.
See the grades we handleWhat we handle
Specifications are agreed lot by lot before dispatch. If you need a grade that isn’t listed, ask. Our sourcing reaches well beyond this sheet.
High-quality alloy solids and offcuts, sourced worldwide and kept segregated by alloy family so the chemistry is known before it reaches the furnace. Melt shops recover the nickel, chromium and molybdenum already in the scrap and buy less ferro-alloy.

Sourcing and export
Our partners buy scrap at source in markets across the globe and ship it into India. Once a lot is segregated in Hospet, its grades are open to buyers anywhere: steel plants and foundries in India, and importers overseas.
