The development of new materials and advanced  material technologies enhances our living. Engineers of  various disciplines are 

now working together, exploring new ways in designing for  sustainability, making use of new products and minimizing wastage to
improve our living environment while striving to use the least amount  of natural resources. Traditional requirements for materials
quality, durability and fit-for-the purpose are no longer sufficient considerations. We need to regard low carbon emission, environmental
friendliness and sustainability as key objectives. Engineers of Hong Kong, like their counterparts all over the world, are facing the
same challenge.

This conference aims to bring together local and overseas practitioners and academics to share their experience and innovations

in the selection and effective use of materials toward making a sustainable environment.
