The purpose of the NSA Purchasing Committee is to engage in recruitment of companies allied with the iron, steel, and slag industry who can offer goods and services that enhance the slag processing industry. The purchasing committee supports and actively works with the other NSA committees as they discuss Best Practices relative to both Operational processes and Safety. This Committee is always looking for Allied Members willing to host Spring and Summer meetings which allows the NSA member companies direct exposure to their facilities and product offerings. In the past this has led to constructive synergy between allied members effectively enhancing the services they provide to the industry.
