Unlocking sustainable designs through digital material passports
As we continue our journey to net zero carbon it is clear that material passports are key. As sustainability experts we are investing in creating digital passports that provide an insight into a building’s identity. All the information gathered will be essential to minimise waste, reuse and rebuild in a more sustainable way.
Our digital passports focus on:
- Material origin
- Embodied carbon
- Circularity
- Health & wellbeing
- Certifications
Our selected products and their digital material passports are being exhibited at BE-ST Fest 2023, the festival of the zero carbon built environment. This annual event showcases best practice, new solutions, hands-on training, and emerging opportunities for a zero carbon built environment.
These chosen products were previously exhibited as part of our Sustainnovation series.
