SUMMARY:Future in Pharmaceuticals Ireland 2021
DESCRIPTION:Future in Pharmaceuticals Ireland 2021\n \nIn a time when the pharmaceutical processing industry has never been more important to Ireland and to the world – Future in Pharmaceuticals Ireland 2021 conference will highlight the sustainability learnings and opportunities experienced over the last 12 months. \nReducing the impact of operations on the environment through energy efficiency\, water conservation and waste management is just part of the story…. As operations in Ireland continue to expand and with new pharmaceutical processing plants coming online achieving an organisations carbon baseline is becoming a challenge. Future in Pharmaceuticals Ireland 2021 will highlight the high level of sustainability still being achieved as the industry expands. \nFor many years large organisations have been realising the fact that environmental policies and energy efficiencies within processing is directly related to the bottom line – reducing energy costs\, carbon footprint and waste during the process of pharmaceuticals can have a significant impact on the profitability and sustainability of a facility.

SUMMARY:IEA- Sustainable Supply Chains Training Programme
DESCRIPTION:IEA- Sustainable Supply Chains Training Programme\n \nThe Climate Action Bill 2021 legislates for the ambitious targets of reducing Ireland’s greenhouse gas emissions by 51% by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. This will require a significant change in the economy and every sector will be required to play its part. \nCompanies involved in importing and exporting goods and services face the unique challenge of accounting for and reducing emissions not just directly emitted through manufacturing or onsite energy use\, but also indirectly from their supply chains. Businesses who act early and adopt sustainable supply chain practices will ensure they are prepared for legislative requirements on accounting for their carbon footprint\, as well as benefiting from a greener public image and availing of new opportunities in the emerging green economy. \nThe IEA Sustainable Supply Chain training programme has been specially developed to offer practical\, actionable support to companies in relation to their supply chain emissions. The programme involves a series of half-day workshops designed to bring companies on a journey from understanding their carbon emissions right through to the practical steps needed to measure\, report and reduce their supply chain emissions\, and to adopt more sustainable procurement practices. Participants will each receive practical carbon measurement and reduction tools from the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) for adoption within their organisations. \nThe programme is suitable for companies of any size and sector\, from companies just starting their sustainability journey to organisations further down the road to carbon neutrality who will benefit from integrating our sustainable supply chain tools into their existing sustainability strategies. \nThe IEA is offering a special introductory fee for one workshop: \nIEA Members: €250 / Non-Members: €350 \n  \nSustainable Supply Chains Programme:\n\nCarbon Literacy – 20/05/21\nCarbon Calculation and Reporting – 26/05/21\nCarbon Reduction – 09/06/21\nSustainable Procurement (Coming Soon)\n\n\n\n\nCourse Bundle Deals: Members (Special Introductory Offer) \n2 workshops: €450 \n3 workshops: €600 \nNon-Members (Special Introductory Offer) \n2 workshops: €600 \n3 workshops: €850\n\n\n\nFor more information or if you have any questions please contact Karen Hennessy or Paul Corbett on 01 661 2182 or training@irishexporters.ie

SUMMARY:EPA: Irish Manufacturing Research
DESCRIPTION:EPA: Irish Manufacturing Research\nIMR – PROBOT – The PROBOT project was undertaken by Irish Manufacturing Research (IMR) and Irish Composites Centre (IComp). The aim of this research was to investigate the potential uptake of a new composite created by IComp using Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) to create a Self-Reinforced Polymer\, as opposed to the Polypropylene Self Reinforced Polymers which are currently utilised on the market in various industries. It was decided to carry out research with PET because it is a material that is widely recycled. Such a polymer could therefore be created in part with recycled PET and thus be more circular \nDetails below:
