For manufacturers

Join the Manufacturing Network

Apply to Metraxio’s controlled manufacturing network. Applications are reviewed by Metraxio Ops — submitting does not create a supplier account or make your company publicly visible.

HOW IT WORKS

  1. 1. Apply — company, capability and contact details.
  2. 2. Ops review — Metraxio may approve, reject, or request more information.
  3. 3. Account activation — only after approval: supplier workspace + secure invitation.
  4. 4. Onboarding — complete facility, machine and capability data before RFQ eligibility.

WHO SHOULD APPLY

Manufacturers with their own production capacity — for example:

  • CNC machining shops
  • Sheet metal & stamping
  • Casting & forging
  • Injection moulding
  • Welding & fabrication
  • Surface & heat treatment
  • Assembly facilities
  • Testing & inspection

A company without its own machines cannot apply as a manufacturer. It may apply as a sourcing partner. That does not create a factory profile and does not pass manufacturing qualification.

WHAT TO PREPARE

About ten minutes. Have this ready:

  • Production location — country and city of your main facility.
  • Processes you run in-house — only select what you produce yourself, not what you outsource.
  • Main capabilities — key machines, part sizes, materials and typical batch sizes.
  • Certifications — e.g. ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 13485, ISO 14001.
  • A business email — on your company domain; your invitation is sent here.

A GOOD MANUFACTURING PROFILE

The short profile is what the review team reads first. Be specific:

“Precision CNC turning and 5-axis milling in Bursa. 24 CNC machines, parts up to Ø 400 mm. Stainless, aluminium and alloy steels in batches of 50–5,000 pcs. IATF 16949 certified, supplying automotive Tier-1s in Germany.”

AFTER APPROVAL

  • Supplier workspace — manage facilities, machines, materials and certifications.
  • Qualified RFQs — be invited when your capability fits a buyer’s part.
  • Quotes & orders — quote, then report production and shipment status on the order.
  • Anonymous by default — your name stays hidden while buyers compare.

Your application is only visible to the Metraxio operations team. Questions before applying? Read the manufacturer FAQ or write to supplier@metraxio.com.

Fields marked * are required. Write in English so the review team can assess your profile. Do not submit trader/broker profiles without production capability.

How does this company supply?

Registered legal name of the manufacturing company. It stays confidential — buyers never see it.

Your company's own website, e.g. www.yourcompany.com — https:// is added automatically. Do not enter LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Alibaba or other marketplace/social links. Leave empty if you have no website.

Where your main production facility is located.

cities — pick from the list or type your own. City data: GeoNames. City of your main production facility.

Province, state or industrial region. Filled automatically when you pick a city from the list.

Manufacturing processes

Select only the processes you run in-house with your own machines — not what you outsource.

Sourcing scope

This records what you can source or coordinate. It does not register machines, molds, stock, or a manufacturing qualification.

Materials

Compounds (optional, unverified)

Standard products you can source

List the facts that define what you can make: key machines (type, count, brand/model), maximum part size or machine travel, materials, achievable tolerances and typical batch sizes.

Describe your actual manufacturing processes, machinery, technical capabilities and products. Do not list marketplace or sourcing platform services.

Only valid, third-party certificates held by this facility, separated by commas. You will be asked for copies during onboarding.

Full name of the person who will manage your Metraxio account.

International format with country code, e.g. +90 212 555 01 23 or +49 711 123 4567. The code is filled in when you choose your country.

An address on your company domain (e.g. sales@yourcompany.com). All review messages and your account invitation are sent here, so make sure it is monitored.

This looks like a personal mailbox (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo…). Applications with a company-domain email are reviewed faster.

2–4 sentences: what you produce, for which industries, your strongest capability and who you already supply. See the example on the left.
