Today, the BIR represents more than 30,000 companies around the world, forming the largest international recycling federation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It comprises\u00a0<strong>four commodity divisions<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/scrapad.com\/en\/materials\/iron-steel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iron and steel<\/a>, non-ferrous metals,\u00a0paper\u00a0and\u00a0textiles<\/strong>, as well as four commodity committees dealing with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/scrapad.com\/en\/materials\/stainless-steel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stainless steel<\/a>\u00a0and special alloys,\u00a0plastics, tyres and\u00a0rubber, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/scrapad.com\/en\/materials\/electronics-scrap-weee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">electronic scrap<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The federation provides a&nbsp;<strong>dynamic forum for its members<\/strong>&nbsp;to share knowledge and experience. It serves as a platform to establish successful working relationships and to promote recycling to other industrial sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mission of the Bureau of International Recycling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>BIR&#8217;s primary mission is to&nbsp;<strong>promote the recycling of materials and to facilitate the free and fair trade of recyclable materials in a sustainable and competitive global economy<\/strong>. Some of its other objectives are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>To represent the international recycling industry<\/strong>&nbsp;globally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To raise public awareness of its economic and environmental contributions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To promote free trade, environmentally sound resource management and the use of recycled materials<\/strong>&nbsp;worldwide.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To encourage manufacturers to design products with greater consideration for recyclability<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ScrapAd, new member of the Bureau of International Recycling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We know that this membership is a great achievement and demonstrates&nbsp;<strong>ScrapAd&#8217;s commitment to environmental stewardship and the promotion of sustainable practices in the recyclable materials market<\/strong>. All this has been thanks to the work behind this platform, to make it a reference portal in the recycling market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus,<strong>&nbsp;we thank the BIR enormously for the trust in ScrapAd and for recognising the important contribution to the recycling sector of this startup<\/strong>. Undoubtedly, this incorporation as a member of the federation will help to improve ScrapAd&#8217;s visibility, attracting new users who also want a fair and sustainable trade of recyclable materials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n    \n\n    <div class=\"c-container c-post--related\" style=\"background-color: #F7F5F2; --xsPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --smPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --mdPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --lgPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px; --xlPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px; --xxlPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px;\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <h3 class=\"c-article__side__heading\">Other posts that may interest you\u2026<\/h3>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"scrapad-blocks-related glide\" data-autoplay=\"4000\" data-views-desktop=\"3\" data-views-tablet=\"2\" data-views-mobile=\"1\" data-mode=\"slider\">  \n            <div class=\"container glide__track\" data-glide-el=\"track\">\n                <div class=\"row slider-mobile glide__slides\">\n                                                                         \n                            <div class=\"col-12 col-lg-6 glide__slide\">\n                                    <div class=\"c-blog__item\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/scrapad.com\/en\/blog\/scrapad-receives-hazitek-2025-program-support-for-the-scagents-project\/\" class=\"c-blog__item--inner\">\n            <div class=\"c-blog__item__header\">\n                <div\n                    class=\"c-blog__item__image\"\n                    style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/scrapad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/request_pages-to-jpg-0001.jpg;\"\n                ><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"c-blog__item_body\">\n                    <h4 class=\"c-blog__item__title\">ScrapAd receives HAZITEK 2025 program support for the SCAGENTS project<\/h4>\n                    <div class=\"c-blog__item__meta\">\n                        <span class=\"c-blog__item__date\">16\/11\/2024<\/span>\n                    <\/div>\n                <div class=\"c-blog__item__desc\">\n                    <p>ScrapAd has been awarded a grant under the HAZITEK 2025 program for the execution of the SCAGENTS project (ScrapAd Agent).
