01 — What we ship

Grades, to ReMA/ISRI specification

We trade to published specification, not to description. Every contract names the grade, the weight tolerance, and the claims mechanism before a single truck is called.

02 — Why Canadian origin

Three structural advantages, not sales claims

Origin is not branding in this trade — it changes what your clearing agent does at the port and what lands in your furnace.

DGFT · Jan 2026

PSIC exempt at designated ports

Canada is on India's pre-shipment-inspection exemption list, alongside the US, EU, UK, Australia and New Zealand. Cargo still clears radiation and explosives scanning — but the PSIC cost and the days it adds come off your landed cost. Exemption requires direct shipment, with no intermediate country.

Material quality

Low-residual North American metal

Ontario's industrial and demolition arisings are dry, well-segregated and low in the tramp elements that force dilution in the melt. Less dirt and concrete per tonne means the price you pay is closer to the steel you actually get.

Contract law

Enforceable, in plain English

Canadian common-law sales contracts, an identifiable and incorporated counterparty, and documentation that a negotiating bank accepts without argument. If something goes wrong, there is a named company and a jurisdiction behind the invoice.

03 — Load protocol

Seven steps between our purchase order and your furnace

Containerized metal fails in predictable ways: short weights, hidden dirt, sealed cylinders, radiation rejections at the gate. Every step below exists to close one of those gaps — and each produces a document that travels with the shipment.

01

Grade at source

Material is inspected and sorted at the supplying yard before purchase. Off-spec pieces are rejected at our cost, not loaded and argued about later.

02

Certified weighbridge

Every inbound truck crosses a certified scale. Tickets are retained and reconciled against the container's final net weight.

03

Layered photographic record

The container is photographed empty, then at each loading layer, then sealed. You see the whole load, not a staged photo of the door.

04

Prohibited-items check

Physical check for sealed vessels, gas cylinders, ballasts, capacitors, oil and liquids — the items that stop a container at an Indian port.

05

Radiation scan & certificate

Each container is scanned and issued a radiation certificate before departure. No scanned container, no bill of lading.

06

Independent surveyor seal

A third-party surveyor witnesses the load, records the weight, and applies the seal. The seal number appears on the B/L and in your document set.

07

Document set on presentation

Invoice, packing list, B/L, certificate of origin, surveyor report, radiation certificate and weighbridge tickets — presented complete, so your bank pays without discrepancy.

04 — Commercial terms

How we trade

Payment

Irrevocable letter of credit at sight, advised through a Canadian bank. Confirmed LC where country risk warrants. Trial lots may be done against advance payment.

Pricing

Firm offers CFR your discharge port, valid for a stated window. Repeat buyers can price off an index-linked formula rather than renegotiating every load.

Weight & tolerance

Contracted net weight with a stated tolerance, settled against surveyor-certified weight. Discrepancies are resolved on documents, not on assertion.

Claims

A written claims window and mechanism in every contract, with photographic and surveyor evidence as the reference. We would rather settle a fair claim than lose a buyer.

Volume

From a single trial container to standing monthly programmes. We would rather start you at one container and earn the tenth than oversell the first.

Routing

Direct sailings to Nhava Sheva and Mundra, with Chattogram, Port Qasim and Southeast Asian ports served on request. Direct shipment preserves PSIC exemption.

05 — For Ontario yards & generators

Your material, an export price

If you run a yard, a demolition contractor, a machine shop or a plant with steady arisings, you are almost certainly selling into the domestic chain at a discount because exporting is somebody else's business. Make it ours.

  • Scheduled pickup you can plan production around
  • Certified weights, shared tickets, no mystery deductions
  • Prompt payment on agreed terms — not when the container sells
  • Index-linked pricing formulas for regular volume
  • Bins and haulage arranged for consistent generators
  • We handle export documentation, freight and the buyer entirely
