Why Bio-Based and Rapidly Renewable Building Materials Matter



Why Bio-Based and Rapidly Renewable Building Materials Matter HERO.png
Defined as building components derived from natural, living organisms (such as plants, fungi, and bacteria), biomaterials are experiencing a renaissance. 

Beyond the most obvious material (i.e. timber), we are beginning to see a broad range of such products in the built environment. One of the key attractions of such materials is that, when specified appropriately, they support sustainable architecture by reducing embodied carbon and dependence on finite resources.

Presented by Woven Image, this CPD is worth 1 formal CPD point. The speakers define key sustainable material concepts, showcase current biomaterial applications, and explore future innovations shaping low-impact construction.
