This , ReMA took our expertise on the road! We partnered with the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services for an interactive session on EV battery safety.

Key takeaways for attendees included:
• Proper storage protocols for electric vehicles
• Establishing EV accident safety zones
• Best practices for battery handling and management

Remember: work safely, or not at all.

A fire extinguisher can be an important safety tool, but only when the right extinguisher is used by someone who knows how to operate it.

Employees should understand the types of extinguishers available at their operation, the fires they are designed to address and when it is safer to evacuate and call for help.

During Fire Prevention Week, make sure extinguishers are accessible, properly maintained and supported by regular employee training.

Happy National Manufacturing Day!

A recycled product’s journey involves more people than you might expect. Across the United States, nearly 175,000 people work directly in recycled materials operations.

This , we’re recognizing the people whose work helps get materials ready for their next use in manufacturing.

Proper battery management starts with education—and teaching kids early sets the standard for a lifetime of safe handling and responsible recycling.

That’s why ReMA is thrilled to partner with recycled materials industry stakeholders on the new children’s book, “Supercharged! Batty and the Battery Rescue Team”

In this colorful adventure, Batty and the Battery Rescue Team teach young readers essential safety habits, including:
• Proper charging practices
• Keeping devices away from heat
• Spotting warning signs of damaged batteries
• Knowing when to notify an adult
• Why batteries never belong in household trash or curbside bins

is more than what happens to a material at the end of its life. It is what makes the next generation of American products, infrastructure, and innovation possible.

ReMA and JASON Learning are thrilled to launch the 2026-27 Youth Recycling Contest!

This year’s theme: America is Made with Recycled Materials!

We're challenging students to look at their own communities and discover how recycled materials are already helping build America. Their creativity and curiosity can help tell an important story about the essential role recycling plays in our economy and our future.

Entries are due December 11, 2026

brings a lot of attention to new ideas. Recycling is one climate solution already working at scale.

ReMA members recover materials from old cars, buildings, appliances and other products to prepare them for use in manufacturing. Using these materials can reduce the need for newly extracted resources, along with the energy use and emissions involved in production.

It’s a practical way to make progress with materials we already have. Learn more: https://www.recycledmaterials.org/environment-and-sustainability/

Advocating for the recycled materials industry on the global stage.

This week, ReMA participated in the Basel Convention’s Expert Working Group meeting in Geneva, alongside the BIR - Bureau of International Recycling (BIR), to represent the recycled materials industry in discussions on the draft guidance document for identifying electrical and electronic waste under the Basel E-Waste Amendments. The meeting focused on advancing guidance that will help countries implement the E-Waste Amendments, which took effect on January 1, 2025.

The guidance is particularly important for the recycled materials industry as exporters continue to encounter instances where nonferrous recycled materials are misclassified and subjected to Basel controls intended for end-of-life electrical and electronic equipment. ReMA and BIR are working to ensure the guidance clearly distinguishes recycled metals and other materials from EOL electronics and reflects how these materials are processed and traded in practice.
