Be a part of the discussion on sustainable building, maximising sustainable materials, and connecting with suppliers.

Join us in Norwich for an insightful morning of networking and exploring how low-impact materials can deliver high-performance buildings without compromising on quality, safety, or sustainability.

As the construction industry responds to growing environmental, regulatory, and performance pressures, this event brings together professionals to share their insight and top tips. Whether you’re a contractor, designer, specifier, or client, you’ll leave with a stronger understanding of how sustainable choices will benefit your projects.

The event concludes with an open Q&A session, giving attendees the opportunity to engage directly with speakers and suppliers, to discuss challenges and opportunities faced on live projects.
