GF Building Flow Solutions (formerly Uponor) has launched a new CIBSE accredited CPD: ‘Minimise the heat and energy losses of heat networks’, developed for building services engineers looking to broaden their knowledge.

AG, a leading paving and building products manufacturer has announced the launch of its latest CPD (Continued Professional Development) course – ‘Understanding Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)’. This 30 minute lunch and learn is aimed at empowering architects and specifi ers with in-depth knowledge about the signifi cance, application, and benefi ts of EPDs. Earlier this year, AG, which was named Sustainable Manufacturer of
the Year at the prestigious 2024 Business Eye Awards, published EPDs for over 370 of its market-leading paving and building products. EPDs provide transparent, independently verifi ed information on the environmental impact of products across their entire lifecycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. This data is crucial for architects and specifi ers, who are increasingly tasked with creating sustainable, eco- friendly projects that adhere to government regulations and pass green building certifi cation standards. The course is designed to ensure that, upon completion, participants understand the purpose of an EPD, how they are created, the different types available and how to interpret the details within an EPD to effectively utilise them in projects. The face-to-face format, as well as the virtual option via Teams or Zoom, offers an ideal setting to fully grasp the key details surrounding EPDs within a relaxed and informal environment. Michael Davies, Head of Innovation and Carbon Reduction at AG, commented on the newly launched CPD course, stating, “We recognise that the future of construction hinges on responsible environmental stewardship, and we are committed to equipping professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed, sustainable choices. Together, we can create a built environment that not only meets the needs of today but also preserves the world for future generations.” Build your projects on a foundation of sustainability and informed decision-making.
