Manufacturing and Engineering Magazine (MEM) is set to publish a landmark September issue, tackling one of the most critical challenges of our time: the sustainable transformation of the UK metals industry. This essential edition will feature exclusive insights from the sector’s most influential voices, including the UK Metals Expo, the Aluminium Federation (ALFED), and the British Stainless Steel Association (BSSA).
Timed to serve as the definitive pre-show guide for the UK Metals Expo (10-11 September, NEC Birmingham), MEM’s September focus will arm industry leaders with the crucial intelligence needed to navigate the future. The issue will be spotlighting the tangible innovations in decarbonisation, circular economy principles, and resource efficiency that are reshaping the industry from the foundry to the factory floor.
“Sustainability is the new frontier for British industry, and in the metals sector, the innovation we’re seeing is simply extraordinary,” declared Richard Stocks, Head of Sustainability at MEM Magazine. “This is a roadmap to a greener, more competitive future. We are thrilled to be collaborating with the titans of the industry—UK Metals Expo, ALFED, and the BSSA—to champion the companies that are adapting, and are leading the charge.”
The feature will delve into the core of metal sustainability:
- ALFED: The Power of Aluminium: Discover the profound impact of ALFED’s ‘Net Zero Roadmap’. The feature will explore how the infinite recyclability of aluminium, which requires 95% less energy than primary production, positions it as a cornerstone of modern, lightweight, and sustainable manufacturing.
- BSSA: The Endurance of Stainless Steel: Learn why stainless steel is a champion of the circular economy. The BSSA will share insights into the material’s exceptional longevity and near-total recyclability, presenting a powerful case for how durability and environmental stewardship go hand-in-hand.
This edition of MEM Magazine is an essential briefing for any forward-thinking professional in the manufacturing and engineering sectors. It promises to illuminate the path forward and spark the conversations that will dominate the UK Metals Expo.
