The momentum toward sustainable construction continues to intensify, driven by renewed focus on the circular economy and whole life carbon performance. At the RWM Expo, industry leaders underlined that circular economy in construction is no longer aspirational but a regulatory imperative. Jacob Hayler of the Environmental Services Association emphasised that scalable implementation of circular construction strategies and measurable resource efficiency in construction are now critical. Across the sector, firms are being urged to move beyond ambition and commit to whole life carbon assessment frameworks that quantify the environmental impact of construction and highlight opportunities for carbon footprint reduction.
