Buddy

T-10 until one of the top global recycling events... BIR's World Recycling Convention Round Table Sessions. An exclusive gathering for the best in the biz. Taking place on October 27-29 in Singapore. So if you're wondering what Buddy is all about. Stuart will be there to show you live and in-person. What the future of recycled metals trading looks like. #TheFutureIsNow #TradeScrapNotTime Bureau of International Recycling

When one part of the team is out of sync, the whole operation feels it. Trading, admin, and ops—each piece needs to fit. And when it doesn’t? Deals stall. Material sits. Money leaks. That’s why the smoothest days don’t happen by accident. It takes planning, preparation, coordination. You could keep juggling convos across texts, email threads, and radio chatter. Or you could use a system built to connect every step of the trade—start to finish. Because when things flow, metal moves. And when metal moves, everybody wins. #TradeWithBuddy #ForScrappiesByScrappies #MetalRecycling

Scrappies, it’s our time to shine… Bureau of International Recycling has joined the World Trade Organization Steel Standards Principles Initiative. Putting ferrous scrap front and center and giving us a seat at the table. So what’s in it for you? Recognition. Credit where it’s due! The world is finally catching on to what we’ve known all along. That recycling is essential in decarbonizing steel. With globally recognized standards for emissions on the horizon. Our contributions will be measured, valued, and respected on the world stage. And the world will finally see what we’ve known all along. We’re that hardest-working-never-stopping people. Who keep the circular economy rolling. #RecyclingIsEssential #TheOriginalRecyclers #MetalRecycling

To those observing Yom Kippur. We wish you all a meaningful fast. May you be inscribed in the book of life.
