RWM 2016 – showcasing transformative resource management solutions

RWM 2016, which takes place at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham from 13 to 15 September, is the largest resource management event in the UK. Not only is it the number one place to network with key industry stakeholders, but it is the first major event to take place since the recent referendum and the change of leadership at DEFRA.

The three-day exhibition, organised in partnership with the Chartered Institution of Waste Management (CIWM), is free to attend and also provides a strong conference programme taking place across the Circular Economy Connect, Energy from Waste and Local Authority theatres.

Plant and equipment for the waste and recycling industry

Throughout the exhibition, machinery and equipment designed to help keep materials in the loop and retain the value in resources will be centre-stage, as well as handling and logistics solutions that minimise the environmental impact of recycling. RWM has always dedicated a large part of the show to machinery, equipment, handling, logistics, recycling and reprocessing, and energy recovery. New technologies are coming to market throughout the year, and RWM provides the ideal platform to market them to the right audience.

Circular Economy Connect Theatre

The Circular Economy Connect Theatre which is sponsored by Ricardo, with industry partners, Suez and Viridor, promises to be a key point for exploring how the principles of circular economy can be applied at an organisational or process level. Throughout the event there will be panel discussions on extended producer responsibility and designing out waste to enable greater resource productivity.

Energy from Waste Theatre

The Energy from Waste Theatre is the central hub for key industry players to debate, discuss and share insights on the future of energy from waste. With new policies introduced into the sector, the theatre will provide further clarity for industry influencers on the role energy from waste plays in the long term. It will also provide businesses with insights on how to improve their bottom line.

Local Authority Theatre

Influencers within the industry will deliberate, examine and reveal what waste strategies work best for local authorities when stringent measures are in place, in 2016 and beyond. Discussions will include topics such as waste crime, 2020 recycling targets, food waste collections and driving behaviour change.

Unrivalled networking opportunities

RWM 2016 is a key networking event within the sector. With four features dedicated to facilitating meetings, this is your chance to learn more about technology, products and services that can help your organisation. To access this networking potential, be sure to register and attend the Gala dinner, the Connects Lounge, the Networking Hubs and the Outside Bar.
