SUMMARY:Fortifying The Front Lines: 9th Annual Waste & Recycling Facility Fires Report Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The data is in\, and the conclusion is undeniable: 2025 was the worst year on record for publicly reported fire incidents in the waste and recycling industry across the U.S. and Canada. The industry has reached a critical inflection point\, facing a sustained siege driven by the “Vape Effect”—the relentless influx of over 1.2 billion disposable lithium-ion devices entering our waste streams annually. \n\n\n\nJoin Ryan Fogelman\, as he unpacks the findings from the 9th Annual Waste & Recycling Facility Fires Report. This session moves beyond the statistics to explore the “new baseline” of fire risk\, where seasonal spikes have evolved into year-round hazards. Ryan will discuss how operators are shifting from a reactive “water\, water\, water” approach to Targeted Remote Response (TRR)\, utilizing the FM-Approved Fire Rover solution to stop fires in the critical first moments. \n\n\n\nPresenter: Ryan Fogelman\, J.D./MBA\, Fire Protection Consultant\, Fire Rover  \n\n\n\nCO-Hosts:   \n\n\n\nKirk Sander – Senior Vice President\, Chief Safety and Standards National Waste & Recycling Association (NWRA) \n\n\n\nKristyn Oldendorf – Senior Director of Public Policy & CommunicationsSolid Waste Association of North America (SWANA) \n\n\n\nDuration: [60 Minutes]
