It is time to learn about RRS co-founder, Kerry Sandford. Kerry has over 25 years of experience in equipment design, specification, integration, installation and maintenance in both the solid waste and energy fields. He has been designing and specifying recycling facilities since 1981 and has contributed to the design and construction of more than 20 MRFs from Michigan to South Korea. Kerry incorporates his passion for natural resource conservation into his work and lifestyle.
