Available through the Omnexus portal, the surPlus Centre is a searchable catalogue containing the listings of excess inventory from well-known plastics companies.
The surPlus Centre gives plastics buyers in Europe and worldwide a direct online channel to view these materials, and then purchase them directly from companies offering products through Omnexus, including BASF, Bayer, Distrupol, Dow, DSM, Entec, and PolyOne.
"Buyers and sellers alike benefit from the convenience of the surPlus Centre's centralised location and immediate online access", said Michael J Walsh, Omnexus interim CEO.
"The extension of the surPlus Centre to our European members truly makes this the most efficient global channel for accessing excess materials from multiple suppliers".
The surPlus Centre offers sellers of discounted excess resin materials a simple, cost-effective alternative to the traditional methods of marketing their materials.
Suppliers, distributors, brokers, and other wholesalers of trademarked plastics materials can use the centre to place their prime and non-prime discounted inventory in front of a wide, global audience of plastics purchasers.
Alternatively, buyers using the surPlus Centre can quickly view listings of available excess materials and purchase them directly from these companies.
This one-stop resource shows processors both availability and physical location of discounted products, and is continually updated as materials are added.
Buyers can also sign up to receive e-mail alerts when new inventory is posted.
