Our Products
Raw Materials
Noden International is split into two divisions, one specialising in ferrous raw materials primarily sold into steel mills and other end use processors.
Steel Division
Our steel division works in finished steels, selling them on to a variety of clients, ranging from stockholders, through to appliance manufacturers.
Low FE Products
We supply these low Fe products, available in bulk vessels, monthly, for the cement and sintering processes. Trial lots in containers can always be considered.
About Us
Noden International is a privately owned commodities trading business that was set up in 2008 by a team of industry professionals with more than 60 years of combined trading experience in the commodities sector. The business initially traded in finished steel products but as the team grew, the trading department expanded to encompass ferrous raw materials.
The team is headed up by David Rawlings, holding more than 30 years relevant industry experience, having held senior trading roles in multi-national commodity traders, with further qualifications obtained in derivatives which introduced paper trading in scrap and rebar futures.
All Noden’s employees hold graduate or post-graduate degrees, combined with knowledge gained from their time in industry, having an extensive database of contacts from which to draw from.
Noden International trades primarily as principle, but holds some exclusive agencies, and occasionally operate as commission agents helping to expand the business profile of other trading firms. Its business scope spans four continents, with liaison offices in most of the major global trading hubs for both raw materials and finished steel products.
Noden works with a number of finance banks, mostly notably Barclays Capital in the UK, and other major EU banks.
Our Locations
While Noden International holds its headquarters in London, we recognise the need to maintain a number of overseas liaison offices, centred in global trading hubs. This allows us live pricing information, ensuring that all products are kept competitive and allows us to take advantage of regional arbitrage opportunities.
Currently the liaison offices are located in Turkey, Hong Kong, Korea, Argentina and Chile. All enquiries are routed to the respective offices via London, following which the local office can manage directly, overcoming all concerns for both linguistics and timezones.
We are preparing offices in India and Pakistan, following the increased business activity in these regions.
