by Rebecca Walker — July 2, 2010—Furman Brothers, Inc. and The Boston Group announced they have joined forces to launch International Environmental Alliance (IEA). A “diversion-focused” waste management company, IEA brings together the deep industry experience of veteran waste and recycling leaders to provide full service sustainable waste management, recycling and diversion services for businesses nationwide.
IEA will drive the waste management industry’s sustainable future, the companies say. More and more companies are realizing sustainability isn’t just a good idea, it’s a business imperative. Environmental concerns, rising landfill costs and increasing regulations all make sustainable waste management a profitable advantage for companies.
