Mellon Technology acts throughout the hard commodities supply chain from commodity producers to the end-user. We participate in the metals markets, sourcing from producers worldwide through offtake agreements, for both short and long term purchases, before distributing to our industrial consumer base.
Our products include aluminium, steel, copper, zinc, iron ore, alumina, bauxite and other raw materials. Our metals business relies on cultvating strong relationships with our direct customer base, who appreciate our flexible and customised solutions for their product needs. This involves investing in resources and developing our interests in the metals value chain, including respective product management and risk mitigation.
BASIC COMMODITIES
Our business focuses on providing commodities to the metalworking industry, machinery equipment as well as automotive OEMs and Tier-1. We source cost competitive basic material of all kinds, bundle these together with risk management and logistics services to create a more comprehensive service than other suppliers can offer. Based on our expertise and technical resources, we devise and implement end-to-end solutions for many different industries and for companies of any size.
PROCESSED SEMI-FINISHED GOODS
Besides offering basic materials of all kinds, we directly process a large range of industrial metals through coil processing, cutting, drawing, peeling, forging, casting and/or machining according to customer requirements. Processing can involve extruding aluminium profiles from alumina all the way through to machined installation-ready steel components based on customized drawings. To better serve our customers, we offer all key product-related services from consulting and procurement through warehousing, logistics and materials management.
By forming strategic alliances with third party producers ranging from metals to all forms of processing like extrusion, peeling, forging, casting and machining, we are providing the automotive manufacturers and their sub- suppliers with complete supply chain solutions. We fulfill even the most complex logistic management tasks and needs including just-in-time deliveries, batch tracing, C-part management and call-up orders. Our compiling kits and packaging can meet all customer needs, irrespective of packaging material, label size and the general design of the kits.
Liberalized energy markets are often fragmented or periodically volatile. As a result, price discrepancies often occur when there is an oversupply of wind and solar PV that can be bought cheaply on the market and the time periods when those inflexible generation units reduce supply due to weather constraints. We invest into renewable energy assets that allow us to generate, store and release energy to the market during those most valuable time periods. These pricing discrepancies offer us arbitrage opportunities based on our ability to supply flexible amounts of energy when most needed and yield above-market margins.
