What Metkom Sp. z o.o. does

Metkom Sp. z o.o. is a Polish family-owned industrial waste management and metal recycling company founded in 2000 and headquartered in Dębica, Subcarpathian Voivodeship. The company operates across three integrated business lines: (1) industrial waste management services covering collection, transport, recycling, and BDO-compliant documentation for manufacturing facilities, (2) scrap metal collection and trading — ferrous (steel, cast iron) and non-ferrous (copper, brass, aluminum, bronze, lead, zinc, tin) — sold onward to steel mills and foundries, and (3) a metal wholesale arm distributing non-ferrous metal products in rods, sheets, pipes, and profiles. Additional revenue comes from DIN 66399 P-3 certified document destruction and a recently launched (2025) EPDM rubber granule production facility in Mielec producing 100% recycled rubber granules with PZH certification for sports surfaces, playgrounds, and industrial applications.

The company's technology stack centers on physical industrial processing equipment — scrap metal sorting, a briquetting press with conveyor for aluminum chips, hydraulic shears for cutting and compacting industrial waste (EU co-financed), crushing and compaction equipment, and rubber granulation lines. Metkom supports these operations with an owned logistics fleet and provides direct pickup services for industrial clients. The customer base spans enterprise industrial manufacturers (notably Husqvarna Group Mielec and Cooper Standard), a long tail of Polish manufacturing plants across automotive, aerospace, energy, railway, military, and machinery sectors, government/municipal accounts, and walk-in retail scrap sellers at branch yards.

Metkom generates revenue through transaction-based scrap pricing at market rates (with daily published pricing), service fees for industrial waste contracts, wholesale margin on non-ferrous metals, fees for professional document destruction, and product sales of EPDM rubber granules. Go-to-market is primarily enterprise field sales supported by 6-8 physical branches across Subcarpathian, Masovian, Silesian, and West Pomeranian voivodeships, with brand-building via sports sponsorships (METKOM CUP, Diamonds Rzeszów), environmental education initiatives, and active corporate social media presence. The company employs 200+ workers, processes approximately 10,000 tons of steel scrap monthly, and operates without institutional investor backing or public listing.
