MikaCycle Marketplace strives to be the ultimate tool for sourcing quality, sustainable, and reliable recycled plastic. Now we’ve launching a premium version for unlimited trading, increased supplier information, and access to product sampling. The upgraded marketplace was designed following intense research with over 200 recyclers and brands around the world, with the goal to specifically address the pain-points commonly faced by participants in the plastics market worldwide.
“The difficulties of sourcing recycled plastics reliably and cost-efficiently have tremendously slowed down the much needed adoption of recycled materials as a viable alternative to virgin plastics, and MikaCycle has now come up with a credible product to address these issues”, says Najlaa El Abbassi, CEO of the company.
Premium members can now enjoy access to vetted company pages including their user profiles for additional background information on suppliers, contact numbers and emails. Members will also have the benefit of unlimited trading and messaging. At the moment, the standard membership only allows for a maximum of 3 messages, while still benefiting from the secure payment service to buy and sell products. The premium membership also provides exclusive access to the MikaCycle Pricing reports. The current marketplace is already offering the recycling community the opportunity to trade safely and efficiently, with verified shipping documents and protected payment methods. Additionally, premium subscribers will have access to premium member support, which they may consult for any inquiries they may have such as requesting specific materials or consulting on materials/suppliers etc. Along with the launch of the Premium Subscription, MikaCycle will now also be offering all members the opportunity to request product samples.
By using MikaCycle, buyers and sellers alike can enjoy a streamlined and secure recycled plastic trading process. Buyers simply have to create their profile, search for the product they are in need of, and can negotiate directly with the seller. The MikaCycle team then takes care of processing and ensuring the proper shipping documents are in place and payment is made securely through the Stripe platform. Those selling recycled plastic simply create a seller profile and can begin posting their products. The marketplace encourages an abundance of product information and quality photos to establish transparency and traceability.
MikaCycle aims to bring transparency and efficiency to the recycled plastic trading industry by digitalizing the end-to-end process of the transaction. It allows buyers and sellers to negotiate directly on pricing and shipping terms while the marketplace takes care of the transaction process with a payment and shipment guarantee. It is the premium option for purchasing recycled plastic that is of reliable quality and origin. We believe technology plays a key role in shaping the future of a more circular economy and want to change the way the plastic recycling industry works.
