Join the Circular Economy
The Ontario Materials Marketplace, powered by Rheaply, connects businesses and institutions to develop and scale new reuse and recycling market opportunities.
Business-led, actively facilitated, and technology enabled
The Materials Marketplace gives manufacturers practical ways to save money, improve supply chain resilience and generate value through the reuse and recycling of materials. Over 2,000 businesses and organizations - large and small - are using the Materials Marketplace across North America.
More than a static materials exchange, listings, user capabilities and conversations on the Materials Marketplace are actively monitored, and reuse opportunities are identified and pushed to qualified companies as recommendations. If parties involved need assistance or an opportunity stalls, the program is there to step in and facilitate movement.
Materials Marketplace users represent businesses and organizations at every stage of the circular economy - from collection and processing, to manufacturers making new goods with recycled materials.
The Materials Marketplace can be used as a tool for companies and public institutions to explore real-time data on waste and by-product materials and make decisions on infrastructure and process investments; or as a tool to help find new solutions for hard-to-recycle materials.
