Recycling Just Makes Sense

The benefits of recycling make good sense. The benefits of recycling responsibly make even better sense - for Alter, its suppliers, its consumers, and its communities. Alter Metal Recycling has - for well over a century - maintained a commitment to quality, integrity, and responsibility, with a vision to lead the industry in these commitments. In lockstep with this goal is a commitment at all levels of Alter to protecting the environment. Alter understands that managing environmental aspects is essential for continued success, especially as our company experiences rapid growth and enters new markets and communities.

Environment

company Alter is committed to operating its recycling facilities in an environmentally responsible manner. In keeping with this commitment, Alter has developed a comprehensive environmental program to manage risks associated with environmental aspects of recycling scrap metal. To standardize systems and programs across our operating facilities, in 2006, Alter implemented an Environmental Management System ("EMS") based on a continuous improvement model. Alter's EMS was certified to the internationally-recognized ISO 14001:2004 standard in early 2007, demonstrating strong commitment to environmental responsibilities by senior executives and throughout operational facilities.
