BIR Valencia 2025 – Paper Division: “The future of sustainability is under threat”

In the face of tariffs and economic nationalism, recyclers must continue to strengthen specifications and promote recyclables as essential materials, BIR’s World Recycling Convention in Valencia on 27 May was told.

This approach for the sector was essential as cross-border trade pressures were putting sustainability under threat, declared keynote speaker Brian Henesey, Past Chair of ReMA and Vice President of Rocky Mountain Recycling Inc. (USA) at the BIR Paper Division plenary session.
