Single Ply Roofing Association (SPRA) Conference and Awards Dinner

The fourth Single Ply Roofing Association (SPRA) Conference and Awards Dinner was held on June 20, at Eastwood Hall in Nottinghamshire. The conference speakers delivered presentations on a wide range of sustainability issues relevant to the single ply roofing sector. Under the title ‘Sustaining single ply challenges and champions’; topics included specification & design, the circular economy, waste management research, environmental policy, employment law, training and industry accreditation, changes to CSCS visitor cards, mental health and wellbeing and staying professional and safe on social media.

The revised SPRA Design Guide 2018 was launched, along with new Welding Guidance and updates on many other SPRA guidance and quality standard documents. At the conference these documents were provided on special credit card-sized flash drives but are freely available to download from the SPRA website.

Congratulations must go to all the SPRA Award winners, SIG D&T, Protan, Danosa UK and IKO Polymeric. Jim Hooker, SPRA technical director got a standing ovation when he was presented with the very first SPRA Award for Outstanding Achievement by SPRA CEO, Cathie Clarke. Full details of all SPRA Awards can be found on the SPRA website.

On Thursday, June 13, 2019, SPRA will be holding its annual conference at Heythrop Park in Oxfordshire to celebrate the event’s fifth birthday. It promises to be another very special day, so make a note in your diary now!
