PING WONG-FRESE

Name a hashtag that currently describes your day-to-day work.

In fact, two come to my mind: #shortageofmaterials and #pricefluctuations.

What do you find most exciting about the market situation right now?

It is never boring. We are challenged to stay close to the market and to assess price developments correctly. Prices go up and down. The price development of the commodity depends on political circumstances, demand as well as energy and transport costs.

There are always new materials that need a new sales channel. Something that was seemingly impossible to recycle before can now be recycled thanks to new technology. Materials that used to have to be disposed of with an additional payment can now be recycled with good compensation.

There is always movement in the market and the industry is international. We not only deal with domestic or European clients, but also with clients in Asia and Turkey.
