Rotterdam's Jewometaal scrap metal terminal forms part of ELG Haniel group with 35 processing facilities around the world specialising in the handling of stainless steel scrap. The Rotterdam terminal reported a throughput of 320,000 tonnes in 2004 with volumes rising significantly over the previous year because of increasing demand from India and China - although Taiwan, Spain and Finland are also significant outlets. Paul Bruin, the company's quality manager, anticipates throughput falling to around 300,000 tonnes for 2005 as a direct result of price corrections in the market.
