Bureau of International Recycling

Founded in 1948, BIR was the first federation to support the interests of the recycling industry on an international scale. Today, BIR represents more than 30,000 companies around the globe, with a direct membership of over 1,100 companies and 36 national associations from 72 countries. Together, these members form the largest international recycling federation. The federation provides a dynamic forum for its members to share their knowledge and experience and serves as a platform to establish successful business relations among other industrial sectors and policy makers. BIR’s twice-yearly conventions are the highlight of the global recycling events calendar. The conventions are designed to give companies and individuals in the recycling industry the opportunity to make new contacts in a truly international environment, follow industry trends, keep up-to-date on international legislation affecting trade, stay abreast of technology developments through international exhibitions of key recycling machinery/equipment and services, and participate in lively debates during keynote sessions with high-profile guest presentations.For more information about BIR, please visit www.bir.org
