  • It’s time to green the construction sector

    Construction products are essential components of the built environment that surrounds us, but they also have a huge environmental impact throughout their entire lifecycle. On 30 March, the European Commission will publish a proposal for the revision of the central piece regulating construction products: the Construction Products Regulation (CPR), which is expected to introduce a number of sustainability elements to align with the requirements of the European Green Deal. In the time of decarbonisation, the CPR is the lynchpin between energy-intensive industries and the built environment, two of the biggest contributors to EU emissions.
