Membership Requirements
Companies seeking membership with the APR need to fit in one of two categories:
Full Members 
Full Membership shall be open to any company North America that is actively engaged in the business of reprocessing postconsumer plastic material by first purchasing postconsumer plastic material and preparing it for end use by two or more of these additional processes – grinding, washing, pelletizing, conduxing, densifying, chemically or mechanically upgrading the materials to be used or sold to an end-use market. An operation that solely sorts and bales materials to be sold to another company for reprocessing is considered, by APR, to be an intermediate processor and therefore is not eligible for Full Membership.
Affilitate Members 
Affiliate Membership shall be open, with final approval from the Board of Directors, to any profit or not-for-profit corporation, partnership or sole proprietorship that does not qualify for Full Membership and that has a direct business stake in the recycling of postconsumer plastics. Parties solely in the business of brokering plastic material for recycling are not eligible for APR membership.
