Vinyl, or PVC, building products are a cost effective choice offering a long product life with minimal maintenance requirements. At a time of constrained budgets, using vinyl products can not only save money but can also help to meet targets for developing better housing with improved comfort and insulation whilst complying with the highest sustainability and environmental requirements.
This seminar will save you time and money in the future by giving you the facts, to make informed decisions when specifying building products.
Did you know, for example, that more than three million PVC-U windows are now recycled every year in the UK alone - enough to provide replacement windows for around 300,000 houses and flats!
Key topics on the seminar agenda;
- The energy-efficient renovation of buildings
- The real cost of poor housing
- The ‘circular economy’ – an opportunity for vinyl
- Energy, resource & cost savings using PVC products
This event is formally recognised by the Construction CPD Certification Scheme.
