Roadmap to Net Zero

Net Zero will be heading its way to Birmingham after a very successful show in London 2023.

Discover our dedicated Net Zero section at UK Construction Week that will showcase the latest innovations that will help make the built environment sector become more sustainable.

There has never been greater awareness that action needs to be taken to reduce carbon emissions as we strive to become net zero, everyone involved in the built environment has a huge role to play.

At the 2023 London event, manufacturers, suppliers, and partners will educate the industry on how to meet the standards that are required to become more sustainable and ensure Net Zero targets are achievable. 

We are in an exciting era where new building methods and innovation can lead us to a Net Zero construction industry, UK Construction Week is the place to learn how.
