Take a look at the industry coverage and reviews on Futurebuild. 

The Passivhaus Trust is on a high after a fantastic trip to London for Futurebuild 2023. Over three jam-packed days in London, thousands of industry players exchanged ideas, inspiration and education through talks, exhibitions and workshops and the Trust were delighted to be part of the mission to drive the construction industry towards zero carbon.

A highly effective way of providing optimum standards of occupant comfort and health, slashing energy use and carbon emissions from buildings. We were blown away with the interest in the insightful Passivhaus activities covering topics from how modular construction delivers benefits to the net zero agenda to insulation solutions for providing future proofed housing at scale in the UK.

The built environment industry gathered at the Futurebuild conference last month in London, to discuss various paths to decarbonisation. Alex Smith and Molly Tooher-Rudd report.

Futurebuild returned to ExCeL London last month, with leading academic and industry figures discussing how the building industry would meet the challenges of delivering net zero.

The opening address was by Sarwjit Sambhi, chief executive at developer St Modwen, who discussed how smart grids could potentially halve the peak loads in new all-electric housing developments.

St Modwen is building 350 homes on the old Mini factory site at West Longbridge in Birmingham, and each one will have an air source heat pump, EV charging point and a connection to communal battery storage.

As well as reducing the peak loads by 50%, Sambhi said a smart grid, created by electrical infrastructure firm SNRG, will reduce energy bills by 30%. The reduction in demand reduced project infrastructure costs and put less pressure on the Grid, he added.

Tuesday 7th March saw our team unveil TreeParker® – a new urban tree planting cell system.

Marketed and Distributed in the UK exclusively by Green-tech Specifier, TreeParker® is a versatile urban tree planting cell system from tree planting system manufacturer, TreeBuilders.

Business Development Director Mark Wood from Green-tech Specifer comments, “I am delighted to announce that we have expanded our urban tree planting offering with the addition of TreeParker® – a modular structural soil cell system for planting trees in city centres and other urban environments. Our corporate vision and values are aligned with TreeBuilders and our collaborative approach to this joint venture is exciting for the industry. The TreeParker® cellular system offers superior functionality and is a smart combination of Green, Grey and Blue. The system has already proven itself in numerous projects throughout Europe and the Middle East, so I am thrilled that its addition completes the urban tree portfolio for Green-tech Specifier, making this a unique offering to the UK market with a full product offering to satisfy any urban tree planting need.”

EDGE, a hub for sustainable design and building materials, is celebrating its first anniversary with a short talks programme and cocktail reception on Wednesday 5th October from 1800 – 2200.

EDGE, an acronym for Eco Design Green Environment, will host its one-year anniversary celebratory evening in collaboration with Futurebuild, the industry stage for building product innovation. The evening will include a short talks programme, delivered in the PechaKucha storytelling format, featuring a number of practitioners providing insight into why they have put sustainability and regenerative thinking at the heart of their professional lives.

Faced with the enormous challenge of dramatically improving buildings to meet our climate change targets, Futurebuild, the ‘industry stage’ for building product innovation, is Taking a Stand for a better-built environment as part of a launch initiative for next year’s event.

It is also urging companies and professionals throughout the construction supply chain to make a similar commitment by “taking a stand” on an issue they passionately believe will help propel the industry towards a more sustainable future.

Real progress on serious issues such as net zero is made when people come together. It’s a shared responsibility and for those that work in the built environment, we have an even bigger responsibility to make a change. Our event’s core is sustainability, but if you’re equally as passionate about diversity or bridging the construction skills gap as you are innovation or improved building standards, next year’s Futurebuild is your stage to showcase that commitment and take a stand.

Construction sector audience returns for physical Futurebuild show

The Futurebuild show at London’s ExCeL on March 1-3 welcomed a wide range of construction sector visitors last week and featured about 300 exhibitors.

As well as companies presenting their products on stand, some 350 speakers shared in seminar theatres about how the built environment can go beyond net zero. 

Across the three days, sustainability pioneers, such as Professor Peter Guthrie OBE, Sue Riddlestone OBE and Robin Nicholson CBE, demonstrated how net zero ambition could be turned into action.

Futurebuild closes with hope for the future

Futurebuild aims to inspire the transformational change needed to propel the industry to net zero, focusing on how we must collaborate and innovate to meet net zero. On the first day of Futurebuild, for example, Lee Rowley, Minister for Business and Industry attended the event to showcase the importance of collaboration between the government and industry as we move towards a net zero future.

“There are some fantastic exhibitions and a brilliant agenda at Futurebuild this year,” commented Rowley. “It is great to see the construction industry coming together to talk about the net zero supply chain and ask the important questions that will help the industry move forwards and find new opportunities. To achieve the challenges that have been set out, we need to work with industry to find solutions and Futurebuild brings people together to do just this.”

The Future of Architecture & Design | Futurebuild 2022

What will the buildings of the future look-like? We took a trip to the Futurebuild Exhibition in London to find out exactly what our homes, offices and schools of the future could look like. 

This exhibition aims to bring together a number of different sectors in the field of sustainability. From engineering to construction, architecture and conservation, Futurebuild looks to inspire the transformational change that is needed to push industry toward net-zero by showcasing some of the most innovative materials and technologies that are making a breakthrough today.

Futurebuild opens with call to action

Futurebuild 2022 provides a space for disruptors across the built environment the opportunity to collaborate on the latest net zero innovations

Futurebuild 2022 began with programme director at the Construction Innovation Hub Keith Waller reflecting on the industry’s current efforts to meet net zero three and a half years into the four years of government funding.

Waller demonstrated how collaboration between government and industry can achieve the deal’s goals.

He also emphasised that technical innovation alone is not the answer – policymakers must be empowered, solutions must be developed and collaboration must be at the centre of everything the industry does. Only then will transformation be achieved.

Innovative homes company Kiss House took over James Latham’s stand to showcase how we can build healthier, more sustainable homes. The timber structure, made of two sections from the Kiss House residential construction system, doubled as a seminar space at the show. To celebrate the innovative collaboration, James Latham and Kiss House were declared the winner of the sustainable stand award at the event.

“At the event we wanted to showcase real structures from real houses”, explained Mike Jacob, co-founder and director of Kiss House. “In this project we’ve taken timber and fed it into a precise manufacturing process to create accurate, high-quality components. After Futurebuild we’ll temporarily store these structures in our facility before using them in Reading’s first ever Passivhaus development.

Back to the Futurebuild

Staged in the aftermath of the COP26 conference, Futurebuild (previously known as Ecobuild) will be perfectly timed to focus on the key issues and actions needed to work towards net zero. The focus is no longer about ambition, it is about delivery. Attracting over 20,000 senior professionals from right across the built environment, Futurebuild is the perfect opportunity for the industry to meet and collaborate face to face, to achieve the transformational change needed if the built environment is going to reach net-zero.

Labelled as the “home of innovation” by the organisers, Futurebuild 2022 will be organised into six sections – Buildings, Offsite, Interiors, Resourceful Materials, Energy and Critical Infrastructure.

Futurebuild to reveal winners of Big Innovation Pitch

To celebrate the game changing ideas, products and services that are transforming the built environment, Futurebuild 2022 called out to its exhibitors to enter the Big Innovation Pitch. After reviewing over 90 submissions, the judging panel has announced its six finalists, who will pitch their ideas live on the Conference Arena before the panel decides a winner at the end of day two today (March 2, 2022). Futurebuild created The Big Innovation Pitch — the industry’s largest call-out for innovation — to celebrate the products and services that are solving the challenges currently facing the built environment and driving a net-zero future. Entrants were tasked with submitting a product or service that can help solve net zero, either by enabling circularity, reducing emissions or providing new ways to improve how we design and build.

Futurebuild 2022 opens with call for action

On March 1, 2022, Futurebuild opened its doors, giving disruptors across the built environment the opportunity to collaborate, see the latest innovations on the show floor and hear from industry experts about how we can turn net-zero ambition into delivery. Keith Waller, programme director at the Construction Innovation Hub, started the day’s conference programme by reflecting on the industry’s current efforts to meet net zero, three and a half years into the four years of government funding secured by the construction sector deal. Waller explained that the deal demonstrates what we can achieve when government and industry works together, even when dealing with external events including COVID, COP26 and Brexit.

Futurebuild announces Big Innovation Pitch winner

Sunamp has been declared the winner of the Big Innovation Pitch — the biggest callout for innovation in the industry – during the second day of Futurebuild 2022. After creating a shortlist of six game-changing technologies from over 90 submissions, the judging panel chose Sunamp for its pioneering thermal batteries. During the Big Innovation Pitch final, the six finalists had five minutes to pitch their innovations to the judging panel. The winner, Sunamp, presented on its Thermino thermal storage battery, which uses food-grade phase change materials for more efficient heat storage, delivering instant hot water while reducing carbon emissions.

Innovation is key to net zero success

The construction industry is one of the oldest and largest sectors in the world and plays a vital role in industrial, social and economic development. Despite its importance, the industry still uses traditional building techniques and materials that often gives it a reputation of being slow to innovate. Here, Martin Hurn, event director at sustainable built environment event Futurebuild, explains why this is not the case. In November 2021, COP26 established that we must limit the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees. Around 40 per cent of global CO2 emissions come from constructing, heating, cooling and demolishing buildings — so innovation in this sector is important now more than ever to reduce the construction industry’s carbon footprint.

Futurebuild announces solutions-focussed keynote programme

The Futurebuild 2022 exhibition will be curated into six sections: buildings, energy, critical infrastructure, interiors, offsite and resourceful materials. Leading innovators and disruptors in each area will provide game-changing solutions that will address the challenges currently facing the built environment. Futurebuild’s Keynote Stage programme will also focus on these same issues, providing visitors with advice and guidance. The leading partners and associations will curate the sessions and educate visitors about how they can propel the industry to net-zero.

Who is responsible for reaching net zero?

We are aware that any business that interacts with the construction industry, such as architects, builders and material manufacturers, has a legal obligation to take actions that will help the UK reach net zero. In reality, many businesses don’t know what part they should be playing, what actions they must take or how to effectively collaborate with other sustainable businesses to make it a reality. Additionally, who is responsible for ensuring that we do deliver net zero emissions?

 

The future of Futurebuild - The home of innovation

Prior to and since the Government’s announcement, the built environment was working towards reducing its contribution to the UK’s carbon footprint. Brands have introduced new materials, technologies and processes to improve sustainability and circularity. At Futurebuild for example, sustainability has always been the main focus at our events and have been exhibiting the game changing technologies from innovative brands for 16 years.

Futurebuild 2022 - Registration is now open

architectsdatafile (ADF) are delighted to be partnering again with Futurebuild for their 2022 event and wanted to let you know that they have now opened registration! Please see below for more details about what’s in store for next year. Net-zero pioneer Futurebuild will return to London’s ExCeL on 01 – 03 March 2022. As the home of innovation for the sustainable built environment, it brings together the brightest minds, disruptive thinkers and the most exciting innovators to transform the industry. 

Futurebuild 2022 - ready to innovate

In 2019, the UK Government set an ambitious goal to reach net zero emissions by 2050. As one of the largest contributors to the UK’s carbon footprint, producing 42 per cent of carbon emissions, the built environment has a crucial role to play. While 2050 may seem far away, in reality we only have a few years to make the transformational changes required to eliminate emissions — much of the infrastructure we build today will still stand in 30 years. 

Futurebuild webinar series asks "are we ready for COP26?"

As we approach COP26, the impacts of climate change and the ecological crisis are clear, with the IPCC report described by the UN Secretary General as the ‘code red for humanity’. To give the built environment the knowledge it needs to take action now, we have partnered with The Edge to ask – are we ready for COP26?  Sign up for the webinars here.

Who is responsible for reaching net zero?

UK emissions fell by nearly 50 per cent of their 1990 levels during the 2020 lockdown. According to The Guardian, this positive change will be short-lived. Carbon dioxide emissions are forecast to jump this year by the second-biggest annual rise in history to help the economy recover after the pandemic. So, what can we do differently now to make a lasting positive impact on our environment and reduce emissions?
