Global Scrap Market Recovery - An Isri Town Hall Series
Global Scrap Market Recovery - An Isri Town Hall Series
Global scrap trade has been significantly impacted by COVID-19. From national lockdowns and variances in
essential business designations for manufacturers and recyclers to the prioritization of critical health and
welfare needs, trade in scrap commodities sharply declined but is on the rise. In a two-part series, ISRI is
bringing together experts and partners to talk about current market conditions around the world that influence
scrap trade. We welcome our members to join the discussion with speakers that will provide insights as to
what is happening in their regions.
