The problem

iMetal charges £2,000/month.
And that's before the customisation fees.

🧱
Unintuitive by design

iMetal was built in the 80s and it shows. Every new hire needs weeks of training. Workflows that should take seconds take minutes. Mistakes happen — and they're costly.

💸
Pay for every change

Need a new report? That's a customisation. New field? Another customisation. £2,000+/month base — plus implementation, training, and a queue for every tweak.

⚠️
Zero CBAM support

CBAM is mandatory for UK metal importers. Deadline: January 2027. iMetal has no answer. Most companies are paying expensive consultants to manually track what software should handle automatically.

🚨
UK CBAM deadline1 January 2027

CBAM isn't optional.
Are you ready?

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) requires UK metal importers to track, report, and pay a carbon levy on steel and aluminium imports. From January 2027, it's legally mandatory — and the penalties for non-compliance are significant.

"Most steel stockholders are paying consultants to handle this. Mettle does it automatically — built into the same system you use to run your stock."
🌍
Country-of-origin tracking
Every product, every coil, every length — tracked to its origin at stock entry. Automatically linked to your CBAM record.
📄
Mill certificate management
Attach MTRs and import documentation directly to stock items. Audit-ready at any time, no filing cabinets required.
⚖️
Carbon factor calculation
Mettle applies the correct tCO₂e/tonne factor per product, grade, and origin — updated as HMRC guidance evolves.
📊
Automated CBAM reports
One click to generate your quarterly CBAM declaration. Formatted for HMRC submission. No spreadsheet wrangling.
Platform features

Everything a metal stockholder actually needs.

Built from the ground up for plates, beams, sections, tubes — not adapted from a generic ERP.

📐
Metal-specific stock management
Dimensional inventory — track by grade, thickness, width, and length. Price per tonne, per metre, per kg. Weight calculations done for you.
Fast order entry + auto allocation
Create an order in under 30 seconds. Stock is allocated automatically — picking the right grade, origin, and certificate for each line.
🔔
Low stock alerts
Set reorder thresholds by product, grade, and warehouse. Get notified before you run out — not after you've let a customer down.
📈
Sales velocity & purchase forecasting
30/60/90-day sales velocity by product and grade. Know what to order, how much, and when — before your buyer has to guess.
📋
Material certificate (MTR) management
Attach, store, and retrieve mill test reports against every stock item. Share with customers instantly — no rummaging through folders.
🔗
Sage integration
Two-way sync with Sage 50 and Sage 200. Invoices, purchase orders, and stock movements — no double entry, no reconciliation headaches.
🌍
CBAM compliance engine
Country-of-origin tracking, carbon factor lookup, certificate management, and one-click CBAM declaration reports. Deadline: January 2027.
🧠
No training required
If you can use an iPhone, you can use Mettle. We've tested it on people who've never seen the product — they're creating orders in minutes, not days.
Transparent pricing

No surprises. No setup fees. No training costs.

CBAM compliance included on every plan.
