Esco Processing and Recycling Receives e-Stewards Certification

Esco Processing and Recycling LLC, Rogers, Ark., has announced that it now holds e-Stewards Certification as well as ISO 14001 certification, which is required under the e-Stewards program. According to an Esco press release, these accomplishments demonstrate the company’s “commitment and adherence to the world’s highest standards for socially and environmentally responsible recycling.”

Since obtaining the certifications in September 2010, Esco Processing and Recycling says it has experienced a 25 percent increase in incoming volume, much of which it attributes to its certified status.
