Pine River Iron & Metal Joins Recyclers Everywhere in Highlighting the Importance of Recycling on Earth Day.

Happy Earth Day 2020! It's the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day and we invite you to with us.

Recycling reduces material placed into landfill and entering our oceans. Recycling also reduces greenhouse gasses that enter the atmosphere. Each one of us can lead by example, and through our actions bring about meaningful change that begins in our homes and extends to our towns, cities, forests and oceans.

Each year, the U.S. scrap recycling industry processes 138 million metric tons of materials, thereby transforming society’s outdated and obsolete products and materials into useful raw materials needed to produce new products. In doing so, the scrap recycling industry has made great savings in both energy and natural resources and thus has had an extremely positive impact on our environment. Further, by purchasing products at the end of their life and processing them back into raw materials used to manufacture new products, scrap recycling reduces the need for virgin materials, such as iron ore, trees, and other natural resources. Recycling reduces energy consumption and the emission of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change, while helping to maintain a steady supply of raw materials for the U.S. and global economies.

Recycling is helping in the fight against COVID-19. That’s because recycled metal, paper, plastics and other commodity‐grade materials feed critical U.S. manufacturing operations. Those in turn are producing the rebar, wiring, tubing, transportation, packaging and other key materials needed for everything from construction of hospitals to the manufacture of new hospital beds, ventilators, toilet paper and other essential supplies. Recycling is both essential to the health of the planet – and to the health of individuals.

Recycling is essential to so many positive outcomes, and it depends on all of us doing our part not only on Earth Day, but every day of the year.

Recycling works better when we all do it correctly.

The more we learn about the spread of COVID-19, the more we consider the impact of our decisions and actions as an organization. First and foremost, we are committed to keeping our employees, clients and their families safe during this rapidly changing situation.

As you have heard, yesterday Governor Walz issued the “Stay Home Executive Order” in Minnesota. The order includes an extensive list of essential services and employees that include transportation and the recycling industries. Therefore, Pine River Iron & Metal is NOT currently impacted by the order and subsequent closure of non-essential business.

Recycling operations are an essential part of critical manufacturers' supply chain, supplying 40% (on average across all commodities) of their raw material needs. Without the continued supply of specification‐grade scrap into these operations, many of these companies would be forced to curtail their operations.

We are doing everything we can on a daily basis to keep up with ever changing virus information, staff health and wellness, new legislation and vendor and manufacturing updates nationwide.

At this time, our doors are open and we will continue to assist you at our location. Pine River Iron & Metal remains deeply committed to serving your needs, safety remains the number one priority and we look forward to continuing to work with you.
