Nearly 25% of the UK built environment's carbon footprint comes from commercial buildings. If we are to meet our net-zero targets and increase climate resilience, then it is crucial we decarbonise the UK's real estate. That is why we remain committed to sourcing alternative solutions to make the built environment more planet friendly.

The Building Safety Act sets out to radically change the construction industry. In the past both Latham and Egan both attempted, with limited success, to bring about change, so why will be different this time around?

A defining element of the Building Safety Act is the requirement it places on all those in the construction industry to be competent to ensure compliance with the Building Regulations.

From 1 October 2023, the next round of changes to construction practice will be enforced. For those involved in Higher Risk Buildings, this key change requires detailed designs to be signed off by the Building Safety Regulator before site work can begin.

Once again, Knauf is celebrating Black History Month, and this year we are focusing on inspiration, with our #Salutingoursisters programme.
