The UK has some of the highest use of flame retardants, many of which are toxic to health, in the world. Many of these chemicals show up in building materials that you are specifying today. Some manufacturers are taking steps to design out toxic chemicals of concern, but how do you find identify and specify building materials that fundamentally protect, restore, and enhance the health of humans and highly functioning ecosystem?

Learn about projects leading this market transformation and how to create opportunities for immediate, meaningful actions as we cover:

• The enormity of the problem of pervasive chemicals and the impact to human health and wellness
• The programs and processes available to verify healthy materials
• How to set out key intervention points in the design and construction process to optimise for health outcomes
• Improve your own materials palette based on the resources and case studies shared
