TRADIUM as a Partner of the 8th BDI Raw Materials Congress in Berlin: Commitment to Reliable Raw Material Supply

The biennial industry event will address issues of resource procurement and supply stability, with TRADIUM actively participating as a partner and exhibitor.

Frankfurt/Main, November 7, 2024 – TRADIUM is an official partner of the 8th Raw Materials Congress on November 11, 2024, in Berlin. The company will be at the venue with its own booth. The event, organized by the Federation of German Industries (BDI), focuses on where Germany stands on raw material security two years after the turning point speech by Chancellor Olaf Scholz. Procuring resources for German industry remains crucial for both politics and the economy. This need is especially pressing given global challenges such as geopolitical conflicts and increasingly unstable supply chains.

Rare Earths and Technology Metals: Challenges and Opportunities in Supply Security

As a specialist in the supply of rare earths, technology metals such as gallium and germanium, and precious metals, TRADIUM serves as an important contact for companies processing raw materials. However, the availability of these materials is complicated by a range of factors. Global trade volumes are often small, markets are volatile, and dependency on a limited number of producing countries is particularly high. These conditions make securing supply a demanding task that requires significant expertise and a strong network.

“The BDI’s Raw Materials Congress is an important platform for exchanging insights on the latest developments in the industry. It’s also a great opportunity to address the most pressing questions about material availability,” explains Matthias Rüth, founder and managing director of TRADIUM. “Our company brings over 25 years of experience in the raw materials trade. We also have deep insights into these markets and look forward to sharing our practical perspectives.”

TRADIUM’s experts will be on hand at the congress to discuss the critical topic of raw material security. At their booth, they will be sharing their expertise with attendees.
