The UK Budget commits a further £1.5bn to social and affordable housing.

But how we build matters.

Public investment should support lower embodied carbon, UK agricultural co-products and resilient supply chains.

What can contaminated waste wood become?

Developing new ways to clean, separate and transform post-consumer waste wood into valuable bio-based materials.

From waste wood to new possibilities for paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants and biochar.

Straw is a co-product.

This matters when you’re counting carbon.

🎥 and this clip of 1 min 20 sec. says it all:

We will go further at the SBUK Symposium 2025.
