Hazmat 2024 – ultimate forum for hazmat professionals
The National Chemical Emergency Centre (NCEC) Hazmat conferences are now well established as the 'must go' event for Hazmat professionals to share experiences and gain knowledge with like-minded professionals working in the chemical incident industries.
Now in its 15th year, the event draws upon the knowledge and experience of a broad range of hazmat professionals and industry leaders, as well as NCEC’s own emergency responders and experts. Bringing together international speakers from across sectors, delegates will benefit from world-standard presentations, case studies and practical, hands-on workshops in a friendly and welcoming environment.
Using delegate feedback gathered at previous events, the format for Hazmat 2024 will again incorporate interactive syndicate exercises and workshops on a cross-section of subjects as part of this two-day conference.
We will be encouraging speakers to include practical elements and group interaction where relevant. Sessions will also cover a cross-section of subjects as we look to increase multi-agency representation. Delegates will have the opportunity to tailor their experience by registering for specific workshops.

Excellent opportunity to introduce latest products and services to key opinion leaders, early adopters and senior decision-makers within the chemical incident community and emergency services.
We look forward to welcoming speakers from the various UK fire and rescue services, Department for Transport, Environment Agency, international hazmat experts along with our own emergency response experts.
The programme for 2024 is now complete, however anyone interested in speaking at future events should share their details and abstract with us now!
Delegate information and registration
Hazmat professionals need to keep up to date with hazardous materials response, chemical exposure monitoring, emergency planning, developments in legislation, future technologies, and learn lessons from past experiences. The Hazmat event is the best opportunity to gain a wider understanding of these issues, and more importantly, practical ways to address them.
All the subjects covered are relevant to people involved in chemical incident response and the setting provides a great opportunity to question and discuss content both in the forum and informally one-to-one. Delegates are drawn from fire services, police forces, airports, ambulance services, the MOD, chemical industry including the pharmaceutical giants and bodies such as the Environment Agency and the Met Office.
