Fastmarkets Circular Steel Summit 2027

The summit is held in Houston, Texas.

The organizer lists scrap processors and recyclers, steel mills and producers, traders and service centres, OEMs and steel buyers among the intended audience.

It suits commercial staff at scrap processors, mills, traders and service centres, since the attendee mix runs across buyers, sellers and producers and speakers come from Nucor, SA Recycling, RHI Magnesita and the Steel Manufacturers Association. Readers whose business sits outside North America, or who work on the technical side of steelmaking rather than trading and procurement, would get less from a Houston event built around the regional scrap and steel supply chain.

Attendees at metals and scrap industry conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks and a collared shirt or blazer, with suits less common than at finance events. Houston in late January is mild but can turn chilly, so a light jacket is sensible.
