Strategic Partnership to Promote Sustainable Building Products in Scotland

On 18 November 2025, the Alliance for Sustainable Building Products (ASBP) and BE-ST joined. They teamed up to push low-carbon and natural materials into UK construction and built spaces. Their strategy uses close links between words like "expertise" and "network." This way, each idea works with the next to build progress in sustainable construction.

Focus Areas of the Partnership

• Advocacy for Sustainable Materials
  They push eco-friendly options for both retrofit projects and new builds.

• Growth of Timber-Rich Construction
  They support timber-based methods and boost homegrown timber.

• Research into Sustainable Solutions
  They join to study low-carbon materials and new building techniques.

• Market Expansion for Low-Carbon Products
  They work hard to advance low-carbon products from ASBP’s Natural Fibre Insulation Group.

Collaborative Approach

ASBP and BE-ST work with industry players, government groups, and research teams. They create projects, share clear ideas, and find joint chances that improve the market and policy paths for green construction.

Leadership Insights

Richard Broad, Director at ASBP, shared his view:

“We link our networks, know-how, and timber insights. This link builds a strong case for sustainable products. It also helps the sector adopt low-carbon ideas at scale.”

Louise Rogers, Impact Manager at BE-ST, added:

“We mix our skills in MMC, timber engineering, and skills delivery with ASBP’s strengths. This mix helps shape rules, skills, and markets to make low-carbon construction standard.”

Conclusion

This new partnership marks a clear step forward for green building in Scotland and beyond. By linking skills and sparking joint ideas, ASBP and BE-ST plan to shape policy, boost market growth, and change building practices for a greener future.
