The categories we have selected for these awards mean the event will be an unprecedented opportunity for those responsible for resources and wastes management to network with their counterparts in numerous industry sectors; to share ideas; and to hear about the excellent developments in best practice.

As well as key industry sectors where environmental excellence has risen high up the agenda, the awards also recognise recycling performance, product development, innovative practice and an individual, not necessarily from within the industry, who has shown leadership and innovation in encouraging recycling.
