Cohen Recycling adds stainless division manager

Cohen Recycling has announced the hiring of Mark Schindler to manage and develop its stainless and alloys division.

The Middletown, Ohio-based recycling firm says Schindler “brings a wealth of experience and expertise” to the position, having spent the last 17 years as the general manager of ELG Louisville in Kentucky.

Schindler is a 23-year veteran of the recycling industry and says he feels “invigorated” by the new challenge.

“I am excited and thankful to join Cohen and look forward to developing its already extensive line of products and services,” says Schindler.

Ken Cohen, president and chief operating officer of Cohen Recycling, comments, “Mark’s immense knowledge will make him a key addition to our team and we know he will have an immediate impact. We are committed to providing our suppliers and consumers superior quality products and services. Mark will expand those offerings.”

Founded in 1924, Cohen Recycling is a family business with its fourth generation now involved in managing the firm. It bills itself as one of the Midwest’s largest privately owned scrap metal, electronics and automobile recyclers. Cohen operates 18 facilities in three states and employs more than 500 people.
