ReMA: Recycled Materials Association Convention & Exposition 

ReMA is the premier gathering for the recycled materials industry—bringing together ferrous and nonferrous recyclers, processors, brokers, equipment and technology providers, downstream consumers (steel mills, foundries, smelters), brand owners, logistics firms, financiers, and policymakers. The event spans metals, paper, plastics, electronics, and tires to advance safe, profitable, and sustainable circular supply chains.

Key Focus Areas

• Market dynamics and trading: supply–demand outlooks, spreads, futures/hedging, export flows, logistics and freight
• Collection and processing technologies: shredding, shearing, baling/briquetting; sensor- and AI-enabled sorting (XRF/LIBS/NIR), robotics, automation
• Quality, specs, and traceability: material specifications, contamination control, moisture/radioactivity detection, sampling, digital passports
• EHS and facility operations: worker safety, fire prevention (incl. Li‑ion risks), stormwater/air permitting, community and compliance
• Electronics and batteries: WEEE and ITAD workflows, depollution, Li‑ion battery handling, dismantling, and recycling ecosystems
• Policy and regulation: cross-border shipment rules (Basel/OECD), EPR for packaging and batteries, trade measures, certifications and standards
• Sustainability and circular procurement: recycled content claims, LCA and Scope 3 reporting, chain‑of‑custody, green premiums and contracting
• Strategy, M&A, and risk: consolidation, capital investments, insurance, cyber risk, business continuity and succession planning
