"Sustainable Materials for the Built Environment 2007 Conference Innovation-Process-Design"

19 & 20 Feb 2007 - Hilton on the Park Hotel, Melbourne

As practitioners in the supply and waste chains how often do we get to listen to Rick Fedrizzi, founding chairman of the US Green Building Council (USGBC), a UN expert on sustainable consumption with extensive experience in Asia, a leading global expert on industrial ecology, and a review of what's cutting edge in materials or how they should be rated and used by top-flight practitioners and researchers who will discuss relevant topics from nano-technology to making concrete more sustainable?

The conference has been organised by Materials Australia and the Association for the Advancement of Sustainable Materials in construction (AASMIC). There is a wide range of topics with places remaining - but probably not for long; so please check out the program on the conference web site.

SMB2007 will bring together the key players that make up the decision makers in the construction industry and interaction between these groups will facilitate examination of problem areas, assessment of potential solutions and pave the way for improved communications about materials in construction into the future. SMB2007 will raise the profile of materials and identify the crucial areas for product, tool and policy development, as well as move towards setting a national action agenda for the development and use of more Sustainable Materials in Construction.
