ISRI Membership Tops 1,400

Association credits demand for its programs.

ISRI has announced that it has passed the 1,400-member mark this month for the first time since 1998, when industry consolidation and adverse market conditions altered the industry landscape.

 

“Strong demand for ISRI programs and services has led to the largest one-year membership growth ever, adding 218 new members thus far in 2006,” according to a press release from the association. 

 

“ISRI’s professional staff provides services and expertise in a variety of areas that are important to companies in our industry without the need for additional company staff,” ISRI Chair Frank Cozzi says. “Large and small members alike derive a great deal of benefit from the unique and innovative programs ISRI delivers.”

 

Cozzi adds, “The creation of the Congressional Recycling Caucus, for example, is a direct result of ISRI’s leadership and hard work. The voice of the recycling industry is stronger than ever.”
