The Materials section

The resourceful materials stage

The Materials section addresses the needs of visitors in search of solutions and innovations in material efficiency. The challenge is to balance the environment crisis against the needs of the population for more buildings and infrastructure. By switching to greener materials that go into construction and improving efficiency, lifetime emissions for buildings can be slashed 44% by 2050.

Showcase the very latest advances and expertise in materials used in the structure of buildings, that will help reduce the lifetime carbon footprint, enabling specifiers to make the best possible material choices.
