America’s Most Recycled Material

October 11, 2012

The Steel Recycling Institute knows all about steel. It acts as an informational and technical resource for steel recycling and the life cycle impact and sustainability of steel products, including containers, construction, and automotive. SRI provides a wealth of information for the solid waste industry, government, businesses, and the steel product consumer. Be sure to check out SRI's website, it contains a lot of recycling resources.

A lot of people don't know that steel is North America's most recycled material. More steel is recycled annually than paper, plastic, aluminum, glass and copper combined. Steel scrap is an essential raw material in making new steel.

SRI is a long time NERC Advisory Member and provides funding for NERC's Blog and social marketing project, as well as NERC Conferences.
