2019 Australasian Waste & Recycling Expo

The Australasian Waste & Recycling Expo (AWRE) is where the waste, recycling and resource recovery sectors come together to find solutions for a cleaner, more sustainable future. This year’s event will be held in October at ICC Sydney.

The need for new and better waste solutions has never been more crucial, with Australians looking to the waste and recycling industry to drive positive change.

Up to 3000 waste management professionals, business leaders and government representatives are expected to attend the two-day live event, making AWRE 2019 the ultimate showcase of today’s global waste and recycling industry.

With over 120 brands represented, attendees can expect to discover a world of solutions from industry leaders like Wastech Engineering, Turmec Teoranta, Wastemaster Pacific, Steinert, Hitachi Construction Machinery and WTT Australia to name a few — all showcasing innovative products, sustainable solutions and cutting-edge technologies to collect, process and recycle waste across sectors such as machinery and equipment, software and technology, food and organics, and more.

Waste and recycling communities use this event as a platform to learn and collaborate, with the AWRE Speaker Series tackling the industry’s most challenging and compelling issues. Presented over two dedicated stages in 2019, Industry Forum (presented in partnership with NSW EPA) attendees will discover the latest trends and insights affecting the wider industry, as well as practical and tangible solutions from innovators shaping the future direction of Australia, through carefully curated seminars and panel discussions.

The ‘Food Waste Stage’ will debut this year, facilitating discussion and focus on the national issue of food waste. Featured speakers will include food waste pioneers Katy Barfield, Founder and CEO of Yume Food Australia, and Ronni Kahn, CEO and Founder of OzHarvest. Session topics will address ‘Australia’s Best Practice Food Services Guidelines’ plus ‘the role of packaging in minimising food waste’, plus much more.

The 2019 Speaker Series program will be released in August.
