At this year’s RWM exhibition (NEC, 11-12 September), Alupro will bring together some of the supply chain’s leading voices for a panel discussion digging deeper into the challenges and opportunities of aluminium foil recycling.
Sustainability and public affairs manager Martin Hyde will chair the session, which will take place on the Packaging and EPR stage (Wednesday, 2pm). Dr. Ann Stevenson, circular economy lead at Resource Futures; and Michael Goor, head of new channel sales at I2R Packaging Solutions, will participate in the discussion and deliver presentations unveiling the results of recent research measuring foil capture rates.
Alongside the panel discussion, the Alupro team will be exhibiting on Stand RS-I128 throughout the event, showcasing their latest awareness campaigns and educational initiatives.
Tom Giddings, executive director of Alupro, commented: “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.”
