On behalf of the NZTIWF Board it is my pleasure to invite you to the 2025 Industrial Waters Conference being held in the relaxed and vibrant city of Lower Hutt, conveniently located 15 minutes from Wellington on August 11-13. 

The Industrial Waters conferences fill an important role in the management of trade and industrial water in Aotearoa New Zealand, offering a unique opportunity for those involved in the fields of trade waste and industrial wastewater management to come together, share knowledge, explore fresh ideas, discuss current issues, seek solutions and inspiration from the keynotes, speakers, colleagues in the industry, technical presentations and exhibitions.

Building on the success of the 2024 conference, where the Local Water Done Well program sparked many discussions, this year’s focus will be on the changes introduced by the government’s Water Services legislation. This legislation promises to bring the biggest shift to the water and wastewater industry in years. As an organisation, we must engage with these changes, as they’ll impact not only our sector, but everyone. By the time of the conference, we’ll have a clearer picture of how local authorities plan to manage their three waters infrastructure—sparking even more conversations at the event.

Take this opportunity to dive into diverse and thought-provoking discussions—everyone’s voice matters in our open forums! Attend inspiring and informative sessions and connect with like-minded people. Our attendees are dedicated to creating practical and meaningful improvements in the fields of trade and industrial waste waters in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Don’t miss out on being part of this energetic community, focused on shaping the future of all things water in our commercial and industrial sectors.

Please keep an eye on our conference website and newsletters for regular updates.
