Vanilla Steel

Selling steel shouldn't take weeks of phone calls. Send us your stock list — Excel, PDF, even a photo of a printout works — and we'll come back with a purchase offer within 48 hours. We buy the material ourselves, organise the pickup and pay promptly. No commission, no listings, no waiting for a buyer to turn up. We're a digital steel trader based in Berlin, founded in 2020, and we work the way this industry already works: over email. Tailored offers and material lists land straight in your inbox — you keep your current workflows and reach producers, service centres and industrial buyers across Europe through a single trading partner. We work with companies like EMW Stahl Service, Bilstein, ArcelorMittal SSC, Gonvarri and Rosenberger — some sell us their surplus, others buy from us. In every deal, we're the direct counterparty: you contract with one German company, and payment, logistics and financing are on us. Our margin lives in the trade, not in Co-funded by the European Union With co-financing from the European Union, we're also building Smart Forecaster — an AI-based algorithm that forecasts price and demand for prime and excess steel.
