A soft landing. (Welcome ...).(nonferrous metal recyclers experience ups and downs in 1990s)(Brief Article)

Recycling Today | July 1, 2002| | Copyright

The previous decade has been a wild one for nonferrous metals recyclers, with changes coming from all directions. A sustained, healthy economy in the U.S. was the hallmark of the 1990s, although many in the metals industry did not always benefit from the investment money being poured into high-tech firms.

But the healthy economy meant a lot of new buildings and homes were constructed, vehicle production figures hit record numbers, and electronic gadgets in the computer and telecommunications sectors were being manufactured in record numbers. All of these industries ...
