The Recycling Certification Institute is pleased to announce two additional facilities have successfully completed their RCI certification process and the RCI Board of Governance has voted to approve their certifications.  The facilities are:

RCI certification is facility specific. The certification process is a rigorous process through which the facilities’ recycling processes are audited by third-party evaluators and their data are certified as accurate, transparent, and reliable according to the protocols and standards of the Recycling Certification Institute.

Independent third-party evaluation is required for all facilities to ensure that the recovery and recycling rates stated within the facility’s application for certification are accurate.

“We are thrilled to continue growing the number of RCI certified facilities across the United States” says RCI Chief Operating Officer Randy Wolf. “Verifiable recycling of mixed construction materials and demolition debris is essential to ensuring that all stake holders in the projects these facilities serve can be confident that the recycling levels they claim are correct and accurate.”

“Serving customers throughout the Seattle region, MCS has worked rigorously to build accurate and reliable processes to recycle the materials that enter our facility. We’ve also worked to ensure we have reliable end markets for this material. Achieving the RCI certification allows our customers to trust that we are indeed helping them reach their sustainability objectives” says Michael Sheldon, CEO of MCS Recycling.

“The Chicago market sets a high standard. Many of our customers are working toward important circularity and sustainability goals in their construction projects. Achieving RCI certification for our California Ave. facility gives them confidence that the diversion data we provide is verified and accurate,” said Matt Spencer, CEO of LRS. “We’re proud of the work our team has done to achieve this certification.”
