In today’s dynamic industrial landscape, surplus chemical inventory is more than just an operational challenge; it’s a significant opportunity. For manufacturing companies across North America and Europe, managing excess materials can incur substantial storage costs, disposal fees, and environmental liabilities. Yet, this very ‘surplus’ holds immense potential to become a valuable resource for companies in chemical-dependent industries, particularly in developing countries, India, and the Far East, seeking cost-effective and readily available materials.

At Sur+, we don’t just see surplus chemicals; we see a WORLD OF SOLUTIONS FOR SURPLUS STOCK. We specialize in transforming your excess inventory from a costly burden into a profitable asset, simultaneously driving your environmental responsibility initiatives forward. Our professional, authoritative, and solution-oriented approach focuses on integrating sustainability into every solution we provide, connecting sellers with buyers globally to create economically efficient and environmentally sound outcomes. “We need to constantly challenge our current sourcing strategies to unlock new value and drive efficiency across all our global sites,” as one Vice President of Global Procurement wisely put it. Sur+ provides that challenge and that solution.

The Unseen Value in Your Chemical Surplus

Every year, vast quantities of perfectly usable chemicals are discarded due to overproduction, expired contracts, slight deviations in specifications, or evolving R&D projects. This isn’t just a waste of material; it’s a drain on your balance sheet and a missed opportunity for a more circular economy. 

“Our goal isn’t just cost savings; it’s about building a resilient, innovative, and compliant supply chain,” a sentiment echoed by procurement leaders worldwide. Selling your chemical surplus through Sur+ directly contributes to this goal by:

• Reducing Disposal Costs: Eliminate expensive and complex waste management processes.
• Generating Revenue: Convert a liability into an immediate financial return.
• Enhancing Sustainability: Dramatically reduce your environmental footprint by preventing waste and promoting material reuse.
• Optimizing Warehouse Space: Free up valuable storage for active inventory.
