Sustainability Series 2026

Running since 2022, The Concrete Centre’s Sustainability Series is an annual four-week programme of online events and resources offering the latest guidance, progress updates and expert discussions on the design, specification and use of sustainable concrete.

The 2026 series explored key themes including the decarbonisation, circular economy, climate resilience and concrete’s role in supporting biodiversity and nature-based solutions. It also focused on practical strategies to reduce carbon through design and specification interventions.
