At this year’s RWM exhibition (NEC, 11-12 September), Alupro will host a panel discussion featuring prominent voices from the aluminium supply chain. The discussion will focus on the challenges and opportunities in aluminium foil recycling. Martin Hyde, Sustainability and Public Affairs Manager will chair the session, which is scheduled for Wednesday at 2 p.m. on the Packaging and EPR stage.
The panel will include Dr Ann Stevenson, Circular Economy Lead at Resource Futures, and Michael Goor, Head of New Channel Sales at I2R Packaging Solutions. Both will present recent research findings on foil capture rates. In addition to the panel discussion, the Alupro team will be exhibiting at Stand RS-I128 throughout the event, showcasing their latest awareness campaigns and educational initiatives.
Tom Giddings, executive director of Alupro, said, “Now part of the Environmental Services and Solutions Expo (ESS), a collection of five specialist trade events bringing together thousands of leading sustainability professionals from across Europe, RWM offers a valuable platform to engage with the industry, share our latest research and address critical issues.
We’re looking forward to sharing the latest insight into aluminium foil recycling, while digging deeper into challenges and opportunities with Ann and Michael. The discussion will emphasise the importance of effective recycling for a circular packaging economy, identify opportunities for improvements to the UK’s collection infrastructure and identify the policy needed to deliver accelerated progress.”
