The Bureau of Middle East Recycling (BMR), based in the United Arab Emirates, says it has attained membership in the Brussels-based European Recycling Industries’ Confederation (EuRIC).

In a June 15 email to members and supporters, the BMR says it is “the first non-European association” to become members of EuRIC.

BMS says a memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed earlier this spring by BMR President Mir Mujtaba and EuRIC President Olivier François.

“A certificate of membership was exchanged along with BMR handing over a memento of appreciation to EuRIC on the association,” BMR says, which also credits Mujtaba “and support from strong team of board members” for initiating and engaging in the MoU process.
