Our SENAFOR in its 32^nd  edition, presents as its central theme COMPETITIVENESS X ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT. With this we are assuming a very serious and relevant responsibility and a commitment with our partners, not only for the metalworking industry -  the main target of this meeting - but with all the participants as individuals and society.

This is because we are long ago trying to increase production and minimize costs, having in view the "man" involved in the search for more sustainability and improving quality of life. This could be noticed when  the Conference on Materials and Processes for Renewable Energy was addicted to the SENAFOR with the purpose to discuss production increase with less damage to the environment and natural resources preservation. With this in mind we propose a discussion with technicians, engineers, students and teachers the possible techniques for development, increased competitiveness, environmental efficiency and sustainability.Join us in another meeting. In October 2012, 22-24.

You already know where: Porto Alegre (RS), at the Centro de Eventos  Plaza São Rafael.
