With a strong focus on sustainability at this year’s UK Construction Week Birmingham show (NEC, October 1 to 3), the organiser has announced a new Net Zero Trail which will highlight the latest eco innovations and ideas driving the construction industry towards a net zero future, which visitors can seek out across the UKCW show floor.
The new trail will guide visitors through the show to exhibitors including JCB, Niftylift, Celsa Steel UK, Fischer Future Heat and Makita, who are championing cutting edge technologies, materials and solutions that are paving the way for the construction industry’s transition to net zero emissions.
Also making its first appearance at the show is the Net Zero Hub. Sponsored by Reconomy, the new show area will be partnering with National Retrofit Hub, a non profit collaborative organisation working with the industry to enable the delivery of housing retrofit across the UK, which has curated the entire seminar programme on day two (Wednesday October 2).
Jamie Roberts, divisional director for construction, housing and infrastructure at Reconomy, commented: ‘We are delighted to be sponsoring the Net Zero Hub this year and bring a fantastic range of content to the show. It has been a challenging year for the construction and housebuilding sector, but it is encouraging to have so many businesses approaching us and looking for ways to operate more sustainably. That is why the Net Zero Hub is so crucial to this year’s show.’
