NFDC Conference 2026 Brings Together Industry Leaders
NFDC Conference 2026 provided an excellent opportunity for RecMat to connect with demolition, construction and waste management professionals from across the UK and Europe.
Held in Estoril, Portugal, the conference brought together contractors, suppliers, manufacturers and industry leaders to discuss the future of demolition, sustainability, recycling and resource recovery. As part of the FRY Group, RecMat was proud to attend the event and engage with businesses that share our commitment to improving environmental performance and supporting the circular economy.
The conference provided valuable opportunities to strengthen relationships with existing partners, develop new connections and gain insight into the latest trends shaping the demolition and construction sectors.
Key Themes Discussed at NFDC Conference 2026
A major focus throughout NFDC Conference 2026 was the increasing importance of sustainability across the demolition and construction industries.
With clients placing greater emphasis on environmental performance, contractors are looking for practical ways to increase recycling rates, recover more materials and reduce waste sent to landfill. These objectives align closely with RecMat’s mission to provide reliable and sustainable waste management solutions that help businesses meet their environmental targets.
Discussions throughout the conference highlighted the importance of collaboration between contractors, waste management providers and recycling specialists. By working together, organisations can improve resource recovery and deliver greater value from materials that might otherwise be discarded.
