Furnaces International Issue
December 2024

Welcome to the December issue of Furnaces International.

This was an interesting issue to piece together.

So far, Q4 has been an eventful quarter. From new political leaders to COP29, we saw a number of key events take place. Many of which have or will have an impact on our industry.

With global uncertainties and disruptions, developments and adaptations; it is my opinion that the we have come to a point where change is necessary. An opinion that is evidently shared.

In this edition, we take a deep dive into the Foundation Industries Sustainability Consortium (FISC), which aims to bring together global leaders in in-novation, research, and technology from across the cement, metal, glass, ceramic, paper, polymer and chemical industries!

As well as this, we take look into the latest investments, and developments from across the globe, and how these will develop our industry for a better future!
