Online
It's time for the second edition of the EASI ZERo Academy, focused on navigating policy and regulation in sustainable construction.
Can innovative low-carbon materials lead to more ambitious standards for all construction products?
Low-carbon insulation materials are gaining ground in sustainable construction. But, in addition to the health and climate benefits of being low-carbon, materials must also perform.
In this session we will look at:
The EU policy and regulatory landscape for construction materials
Insights from the EASI ZERo project on certification pathways for low carbon materials
How research results can help shape updates to European Assessment Documents (EADs) and Construction Products Regulation (CPR) standards
If you are working in construction, materials innovation, policy, or sustainability, this session will give valuable insights into how standards evolve and how innovation can help shape them.
Speakers:
Samy Porteron, Senior Programme Manager, ECOS - talking us through the EU regulation landscape
Dr. Marina Stipetic, Lecturer in Construction Materials, University of Stuttgart and Chair ofInsulation KEYMARK Certification Body Group, CEN-CENELEC
