UWLA MD Yvonne Orgill said: “The time is right to bring together different sectors of our industry to discuss how they are communicating the benefits of using innovative water-efficient products, for the benefit of the planet. There is a renewed awareness among governments and consumers that climate change should be taken seriously, and with the Unified Water Label gaining ground across Europe, there is much to be gained from sharing experiences.
“We are excited to bring this event online, offering the opportunity for more people to join us, encouraging everyone to do a little so that together we can achieve a lot.”
