A great tour from Whirlpool at our first Roadshow

On Tuesday 1st October we were hosted by our supply partners Whirlpool Corporation in Yate for our first Regional Roadshow of 2019. This came with the great benefit of being given a very interesting tour of the Hotpoint Factory. The factory makes an astounding 88 tumble dryers an hour, and a finished product comes off the belt every 10 seconds. They are a zero to landfill outlet and with a packaging manufacturer on-site, they are constantly working toward reducing waste and carbon emissions.

Due to new information released about important changes in the sector our agenda for the day was jam-packed! Including discussions on:

  • Impact of Policy and Future Regulations
  • Commercial and Public Sector Service Requirements
  • Membership Services
  • Sector Competencies and Service Coverage
  • Communications and Relationships

Through round table talks, we had plenty of discussions with our members about their operations. Through open discussions with everyone attending we were able to help and advise on these issues, as that is what the Reuse Network is all about.
