UKATA is delighted to announce its renewed partnership with the Contamination & Land Remediation Expo (CLR Expo), taking place 17–18 September 2025 at the NEC Birmingham. Building on a longstanding relationship with the event, UKATA brings its expertise in asbestos training to support the Expo’s focus on safer and more sustainable approaches to land and environmental management.
The collaboration between UKATA and the CLR Expo has strengthened, with UKATA having partnered with the event for several years. The 2024 edition of the CLR Expo proved a major success, welcoming over 3,000 professionals from across the environmental, construction and remediation industries. Representing the association, industry expert and UKATA member Wayne Bagnall delivered a highly engaging seminar titled “Expect the Unexpected.” His session explored real-life asbestos and demolition projects, highlighting the unexpected contamination challenges faced on-site and the practical, safety-led solutions applied over the years.
“The Contamination & Land Remediation Expo continues to be a standout event on our calendar,” said Victoria Castelluccio, Events and Marketing Manager at UKATA. “It provides an invaluable opportunity to engage directly with professionals across the sector, from contractors and consultants to policymakers. The event reinforces the critical importance of asbestos awareness in all aspects of land development and remediation.”
Visitors can find UKATA at stand CLR-N100 where representatives will be on hand to showcase the association’s comprehensive training portfolio. Featured courses include Asbestos Awareness in Soils and Made Ground, Management of Asbestos in Soil and Made Ground, and Control of Silica and Other Workplace Dust, among others. Delegates will have the opportunity to explore the full range of UKATA-approved training and speak directly with the knowledgeable membership team about the benefits of joining the association. Also exhibiting at the expo is UKATA member Socotec and UKATA associate Draeger.
