Why It Matters for ITAD
Market movements like this can signal shifts in demand for ITAD services. New technologies may create opportunities or challenges for equipment processing.
A new report on glass recycling in the Northeast shows that while a few front-running states have unlocked high recovery rates, there is plenty of room for the rest of the region to grow. To replicate the top achievements and scale up, the region must invest heavily in collection systems, processing infrastructure, and end-market development, according to the Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) study.
