Commodities can be broken down into three main categories; agricultural, energy, and metals & minerals. Currently, our products include raw coal, aluminium, asphalt/butamine.

Approximately one-third of the world's energy demands, including about two-fifths of the world's power, are currently met by coal. This is because it is widely available and reasonably priced.

The primary use of coal is as a solid fuel for the production of heat and power through burning. The most typical method for creating electricity entails first pulverisation and subsequent combustion in a boiler-equipped furnace. Water becomes steam when heated, and steam is used to turn turbines, which in turn generate electricity. The Atlantic and Pacific markets currently make up the bulk of the physical coal industry. The primary importers in the Atlantic region are countries from Western Europe, particularly the UK, Germany, and Spain. In the Pacific region, exports from Indonesia and Australia are received by Japan, South Korea, China, and Taiwan. At Laurel Tech, we want to get into the Southeast Asian market with a more cost-effective supply chain.

Aluminium is one of the most plentiful elements in the Earth’s crust, but it is never present in its metallic form in nature. Instead, it is a compound of other elements. In terms of use cases, because it is lightweight, recyclable, and corrosion-resistant, aluminium is ideal for a variety of industrial and consumer products.

The majority of the world's aluminium demand is currently centred in China due to urbanisation. About 40% of the yearly global supply of aluminium is consumed in China. The next three biggest consumers of the metal are the United States, Japan, and the European Union.

Trade in aluminium occurs because manufacturing accounts for a sizable portion of national GDP, particularly in emerging economies that are expanding quickly. Thus, trading aluminium is a way to wager on the expansion of the global GDP. Asset diversification can be achieved by including aluminium in a trading portfolio together with other metals and other commodities. Commodity baskets, which include aluminium, can protect traders from drops in other commodities in the same grouping.

Although there is regional variation in which term is most used, the terms "asphalt" and "bitumen" are frequently used interchangeably to indicate both natural and artificial versions of the substance in material sciences and engineering. Geologists around the world frequently refer to the naturally occurring substance as "bitumen." The term "bitumen" is frequently used for the manufactured substance, which is a refined byproduct of the distillation of specific crude oils.
