Overview
The port of Rotterdam hosts a large cluster of refineries, petrochemical plants and storage terminals, and the wider Netherlands has a significant chemical industry, with sites in Zeeland, Limburg and around Rotterdam. These plants use Hastelloy, Incoloy, Inconel and Monel in corrosive service, and turnarounds release them as scrap. Offshore oil and gas in the Dutch North Sea adds duplex and super duplex and clad pipe, particularly as older installations are decommissioned. Rotterdam is also a gateway port, so scrap generated elsewhere in Europe may be shipped through it. Mipra Steel buys and sells nickel alloy scrap with buyers and suppliers in the Netherlands: send us the grade, form, quantity and location.

Industries in Netherlands That Generate the Scrap
- Chemical industry: Chemical sites in Rotterdam, Zeeland and Limburg use Hastelloy, Incoloy and Monel in acid and chloride service.
- Refining and offshore: Rotterdam’s refineries and Dutch North Sea installations release Inconel 625, Incoloy 825, duplex and clad pipe.
- Furnaces and high-temperature plant: Cracking furnaces and high-temperature process equipment in the petrochemical cluster use heat-resistant nickel alloys such as Inconel 600.

FAQ
Why is Rotterdam important for alloy scrap?
Rotterdam combines a large refining and petrochemical cluster with one of Europe’s main container ports. It generates scrap from plant maintenance and also handles scrap shipped from other parts of Europe, which makes it a common loading point for export lots.
Which grades come from Dutch chemical plants?
Hastelloy C-276 and C-22, Incoloy 825, Inconel 600 and 625, and Monel 400 are typical, along with duplex stainless. The mix depends on the process, since acids, chlorides and high-temperature service each call for different alloys.
Does North Sea decommissioning produce nickel alloy scrap?
Yes. Offshore platforms and pipelines use duplex, super duplex and Inconel 625 clad or lined pipe. When installations are removed, this material is recovered onshore. Clad pipe should be declared separately because its nickel alloy layer is bonded to carbon steel.
Which EU rules apply to exporting scrap from the Netherlands?
Waste shipments leaving the EU follow the EU Waste Shipment Regulation. Green-listed waste such as clean metal scrap normally moves with Annex VII documents. The revised regulation tightens rules on exports of non-hazardous waste to non-OECD countries from May 2027, so check the destination before contracting.
How do I offer Dutch alloy scrap to Mipra Steel?
Send us the grade, form, quantity and location of the material, with any mill certificates, analysis or photos you have. We review incoming enquiries and respond with relevant next steps.
How are offers for Netherlands usually priced?
On an agreed Incoterm, most often FOB at the port of loading or CIF to the destination port, in US dollars per tonne or as a percentage of the nickel price for nickel alloys. The offer states the date, grade, form, condition, unit and basis.
