Freefoam help Key Partnership Homes reduce wastage
With statistics regularly quoted about the amount of waste we are all sending to landfill, businesses are looking to play their part in reducing waste and operating more efficiently. The housebuilding industry are working to meet these challenges throughout the whole construction process. There are three basic strategies for dealing with waste: reduce, reuse and recycle. Waste reduction is the ideal, identifying possible waste streams early on in the build process. Scheduling and estimation play a big part. Better communication between building professionals to ensure exact calculations of materials can mean that waste is prevented at source. Freefoam have recently helped Key Partnership Homes do exactly this at their new site at Caleb Close, Luton. Freefoam Commercial Director Colin St John summarised “Listening and responding to the needs of our customer is part of our DNA. As responsible manufacturers we were delighted that on this occasion we were able to support our Customer to make a significant contribution to the reduction of site waste. This project is just one more example of how Freefoam are willing to work in partnership with our suppliers and house builders to adapt products that will meet the needs of all parts of the supply chain and deliver long lasting sustainable benefits.”

The vast majority of existing buildings are vulnerable to climate change. Architects are increasingly adopting ‘materials in motion’ to find new ways of creating dynamic designs that have aesthetically pleasing features. Metal cladding facades are visually captivating and
provide a number of performance-related benefits. The metal meets energy-efficient performance specifications and can be integrated into multi-functional designs. Visit the Vulcan Cladding Systems website to find out more about their range of composite cladding and weatherboard cladding.
