Overview

Please join us at an event to explore ways to reduce waste from Cat A office fit-outs.

Solving Cat A Waste


Did you know that up to 100,000 light fittings are removed in the UK every week, with most ending up in the waste stream?*

Worse, many have barely been switched on.

That’s the annual equivalent of 104,000 tonnes of CO2 – a bubble big enough to contain the Shard building.

Just 7 per cent of the discarded lights are recycled appropriately. The rest usually ends up in the waste stream.

We believe this practice is unsustainable and needs to stop.

Please join us at this event to discuss the alternatives to Cat A waste, explore how we can accelerate the good work that many developers, designers and fit-out contractors are doing and support the campaign to End Cat A Waste forever.


Speakers include:

  • John McRae, director, Orms
  • Paul Beale, founder, 18 Circular

Followed by networking drinks and light refreshments. Event ends 9pm.
