I am absolutely delighted to gather an exceptional group of industry experts for what promises to be an extraordinary event. As the world pushes forward with decarbonisation efforts, there is a growing recognition that the circular economy holds significant potential, and steel reuse is at the forefront of this transformative movement.
We’ve got great numbers, but this will still be a relatively small event (130) allowing lots of conversations to take place… and no-one should be afraid to ask a question!
Come and meet the partners (click the link to learn more) and grab a coffee and bite of breakfast from 08:30 on 29th June.
Tickets are now SOLD OUT, sorry!
If you haven’t managed to get your hands on one you’ll have to look out for content being shared after the event. Keep an eye out on this newsletter and LinkedIn.

Panelists
Testing, specifications & data
Hear how to test reused steel and ensure risk is appropriately managed. Are there any limitations and what are the carbon numbers associated with testing. Learn about the guidance that the industry follows for testing and grading.
Chair: Penny Gowler (Head of Sustainability, Elliott Wood)
Dr Michael Sansom (Sustainability Manager, BCSA)
Laura Batty (Structural Engineer, HTS)
Jonathan Davis (Associate Technical Director, William Hare Ltd)
David Brown (Associate Director, SCI)
Peter Muszynski (Construction Risk Engineer, Zurich)
Inventory, availability & tools
The panel will discuss where steel for reuse is listed and how do you get it? Hear how tools have been created by Engineers to work out if a reused section can work with their design, efficiently?
Chair: Martin Quinn (Head of Technical Projects, GPE)
Christian van Maaren (Founder, Excess Materials Exchange)
Diego Padilla-Philipps (Net Zero and Decarbonisation Lead, WSP)
Tom Howarth (Structural Engineer, Elliott Wood, now EMR)
Andrea Charlson (Associate Director, Useful Projects)
Low carbon steel production
A wider loop of steel reuse is the scrap going into furnaces and coming out as new steel. Learn about the latest low carbon products as the industry plans to decarbonise. Is there enough steel to go around?
Chair: Will Arnold (Head of Climate Action, IStructE)
Matthew Teague (Project Manager, Tata Steel)
Walter Swann (Resident Engineer, Arcelor Mittal)
Roger Morton (MD Tech & Innovation, EMR)
Sameen Khan (Senior Manager, Climate Group/SteelZero)
Dave Knight (Sustainability Advisor, CARES)
Purchasing reused steel
The group will discuss how reused steel is purchased and some of the current pain points, including long-lead times and complex supply chains. How might this look in the future?
Chair: Dan Morrissey (Commercial Director, Skanska)
Bill Firth (General Manager Business Development, EMR)
Adriano Amorese (Partner, Mishcon de Reya)
Peter Kelly (Group Director of Sustainable Operations, ISG)
Nigel Moss (Director, Bourne Group)
