Metalshub Supplier Awards 2025: Recognising Excellence Across Global Raw Material Markets

At Metalshub, recognising excellence across the metals, mining, and recycling value chain is an important part of how we build trust and transparency in industrial markets. Each year, the Metalshub Supplier Awards highlight suppliers who consistently deliver quality, reliability, and professional execution across transactions on the platform.

The Metalshub Best Supplier Awards 2025 honour top-performing suppliers across five categories, reflecting both commercial performance and growing expectations around transparency and sustainability.

The Best Supplier Awards are granted across the following categories:

• Minerals
• Metals & Ferroalloys
• Battery Raw Materials
• Recycling
• Sustainability

For the Minerals, Metals & Ferroalloys, Battery Raw Materials, and Recycling categories, winners are determined based on the highest average transaction ratings received on Metalshub. These ratings are provided by counterparties after completed transactions and reflect consistent performance across key criteria, including product quality, communication, delivery reliability, and overall execution.

The Sustainability award recognises the supplier with the strongest contribution to transparency, based on the volume and consistency of offers, including detailed Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) information. This category highlights suppliers actively supporting more structured and data-driven sustainability reporting across the supply chain.

The Metalshub Rating feature is designed to strengthen trust and transparency across digital raw material transactions. After each completed deal, both buyers and sellers can rate their counterparties based on defined performance criteria, including product quality, communication, delivery, and payment behaviour.

Over time, these ratings create a verifiable performance track record. Buyers gain valuable insights when evaluating new suppliers, while suppliers can demonstrate reliability, strengthen their market position, and differentiate themselves through consistent execution.
