Join us for an insightful discussion with Robin Wiener, president of the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI), as we delve into the transformation of the circular economy and the evolving role of recycling. Today, our recycling infrastructure is closely tied to waste management, but there is increasing recognition of the need for product reuse and incorporating recycling into the product lifecycle. However, recyclers are facing challenges due to the limited recyclable materials used in products and packaging. Consumer goods and packaging companies must simplify their designs and eliminate hard-to-recycle materials to align with the capabilities of local recycling facilities.
Robin sheds light on the challenges and opportunities in recycling, highlighting the need for greater awareness of recyclability when making purchasing decisions. Learn more about ISRI at https://www.isri.org/
