Metal Bulletin Event’s International Recycled Aluminium Conference has for the past several decades provided the key annual industry forum for examining what is driving this sector at world, regional and national level, its expert speakers and panelists giving delegates an insight into this vital and growing business.
Like many of the metals sectors, recycled aluminium plumbed the depths in early 2009, but has since seen a steady reversal in fortunes, with ingot values rising to close to 2006’s record highs and scrap becoming more available. But not all companies are reaping the benefits of recovery to the same degree, while others have been quick to take advantage of the upturn in demand. Why are some companies more adept than others at this? Why are some regions faring more strongly, and what can be done to improve volumes and margins elsewhere?
If you are involved in the aluminium recycling loop – as a scrap generator, merchant, processor or consumer, if you use secondary aluminium alloy in your plants, or provide goods and services to the industry, or if you simply need to understand more about the dynamics of this key industry activity – then join us in Krakow, a beautiful and historical city at the heart of southern Poland’s industrial region, for the 18th International Recycled Aluminium Conference. Nowhere else will you have the chance to learn, discuss and network with so many key executives of the global aluminium recycling business.
Benefits of attending• Meet and network with key recycling industry decision-
makers from around the globe
• Examine and discuss industry dynamics with our expert panel of international speakers
• Uncover market opportunities and technology options for making your business more successful
• Find out more about aluminium recycling and consumption trends in this growth region
