2021 looking positive for Housebuilding & Infrastructure

With the positive news of the last three weeks around vaccines and rapid testing, along with affirmation from the Chancellor that the UK will benefit from over ยฃ3bn in new housing and the establishment of the UK Infrastructure Bank, the construction sector can plan-ahead with more certainty than just a few weeks ago. 

The team behind the UK’s largest construction trade event, UK Construction Week, have been laying the foundations for the recovery, with a major London exhibition planned in May.  

UK Construction Week London (4 – 6 May 2021) will be a major catalyst for construction demand with exhibitions being proven economic drivers generating over ยฃ11bn in sales per year.

2021 will see unprecedented construction activity as the sector catches up on delayed projects and capitalises on record government spending on housing and infrastructure. This event will come at a key time when the industry not only gets back on its feet but take up the challenge of reinvigorating the UK economy post-pandemic. 

We have two UKCW Spotlight days planned in advance of our main event in May to connect the supply chain.

UKCW Spotlight: Net Zero Housing – 9 March
A one-day event exclusively designed buyers of construction products and services for the housebuilding sector.

UKCW Spotlight: Sustainable Infrastructure – 16 March
A one-day event designed for civil engineers and contractors involved in buying construction products and services for the infrastructure projects.

Both events will give the buyers access to online content, and a chance to meet suppliers ahead of the main event in May. Successful relationships are about touchpoints, and this targeted event will allow exhibitors to create new prospects and strengthen existing ones ahead of the first live construction event in over a year.

Anyone interested in attending these two events should register their interest asap as places will be limited. 

Suppliers wishing to take part should; also note there will only be 30 places available.

A Successful Week For Wallbarn At UK Construction Week

A Successful Week For Wallbarn At UK Construction Week

 

In its 5th consecutive year, UK Construction Week brings together people working across the industry from design and build to supply; promoting innovation, learning and networking.

In the face of adversity

With so much uncertainty surrounding not just the construction industry but the UK as a whole, we were delighted to have such a ‘constructive’ three days at the NEC last week.

โ€œIn spite of everything being thrown at our industry, there was a very positive atmosphere at the showโ€ Alec Thurbin, Director, Wallbarn

The Wallbarn team had some very productive conversations not just on our stand but out and about meeting customers, potential partners and prospects.

Ever greener

It was great to see such a healthy mix of delegates this year from contractors, manufacturers to architects and planners from universities and local authorities and students too.

A lot more people wanted to talk about green roofs – the benefits have clearly sunk in – and with easier methods of transporting, installing and maintaining them now available (see clip above) more developers and contractors were keen to know more.

You can learn more about our modular green roof here.

Get in touch

Thank you to all those who visited our stand during the event. If you have any follow-up questions, please get in touch. We would also welcome your feedback.

As the UK’s largest event dedicated to knowledge sharing, championing good practice and problem-solving, UK Construction Week offers the perfect environment for the whole industry to look, talk, plan, learn and do business; providing answers for what, when, where and how we build (for) our future.
