About
At the heart of Radius Recycling's operations lies a deep-seated commitment to sustainability and a vision for a circular economy. For over a century, since its founding in 1906 as a one-person scrap metal recycler by Sam Schnitzer, the company has evolved, driven by the core values of safety, sustainability, and integrity. Originally known as Schnitzer Steel Industries, the rebranding to Radius Recycling in July 2023 reflects a clearer focus on the company's primary mission: recycling metals to ensure they never become waste but are instead transformed into new products. This dedication has positioned Radius as one of North America's largest manufacturers and exporters of recycled metal products, playing a vital role in reducing global CO2 emissions and advancing a low-carbon future. The company's facilities, many of which run on net-carbon-free electricity, underscore this commitment, alongside significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The culture at Radius Recycling is built on the understanding that metals are crucial to society and civilization, and their infinite recyclability offers a powerful tool against resource depletion. The team, comprising approximately 3,000 to 3,500 employees across numerous operating facilities in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico, is integral to this mission. Leadership, spearheaded by Chairman, President, and CEO Tamara Lundgren, emphasizes open communication and a thorough examination of opportunities from all perspectives. This collaborative approach extends to community engagement, where Radius strives to advance local workforce development, promote environmental stewardship, and support public safety. Recognized for its ethical practices and environmental contributions, including being named one of the World's Most Ethical Companies for nine consecutive years and the world's most sustainable company by Corporate Knights in 2023, Radius Recycling continues to innovate and expand its impact, fostering a culture where every team member contributes to a more sustainable tomorrow by transforming recycled materials into renewed resources.
