  • BIR Shanghai Tyres: BIR and Chinese tyre recycling association to engage into closer co-operation
    Tyres Committee: BIR and Chinese tyre recycling association to engage into closer co-operation Brussels, 5 June 2013 It was a case of good news and bad news at the BIR Tyres Committee meeting in Shanghai. First the bad news: European tyre sales in the first quarter of this year were markedly lower across all leading categories - passenger car, truck, agricultural and motorcycle - than in the first three months of last year, thus stemming the flow coming forward for recycling.

  • BIR Shanghai Non-Ferrous: President laments "obstacles to the natural flow of metals"
    President laments “obstacles to the natural flow of metals”   Brussels, 3 June 2013 Government “meddling” in the form of bans and other restrictions on non-ferrous scrap exports reflected the influence of consumers “who falsely believe that scrap processed within their borders by us is inherently theirs to consume, regardless of its origin”, BIR Non-Ferrous Metals Division President Robert Stein of Alter Trading in the USA told the divisional meeting in Shanghai on May 27.   His co...
  • BIR World Mirror on Non-Ferrous Metals - May 2013
    No place for taxes Metals need to find their way around the world with an economic efficiency that is too often disrupted by governments. Proximity to local scrap is often the reason for these disruptions as domestic consumers seek to limit exports to nations who do not meet certain “acceptable” criteria to treat scrap. Import duties on scrap, such as those imposed very recently by the government of India, also serve to disrupt what should be the normal movement of our products. Scrap metal,...

  • BIR Shanghai Ferrous: An unwelcome mix of pessimism and protectionism
    An unwelcome mix of pessimism and protectionism Brussels, 3 June 2013 Two years ago, commodities guru Jim Rogers had told the world’s recyclers attending the BIR Ferrous Division meeting in Singapore that “you are all going to be rich”. But particularly in Europe, the prosperity of that time had been replaced by increased pessimism, austerity programmes and low consumption, its President Christian Rubach of TSR Recycling observed at the latest divisional meeting, held in Shanghai on May 28...
