Passivhaus at Futurebuild 2020

Date: 3-5 March 2020	Time: Three consecutive days
Location: ExCel, London	Cost: Free to attend, booking essential

Futurebuild Responding to the Emergency

This year's Futurebuild declares that if there is one message that is coming loud and clear from the global climate emergency, it is that we cannot go on as we are. The industry has to make changes. We need to radically change the ways in which we plan, design, construct and operate our buildings and places. The Trust will once again be participating with the tradeshow taking place from 3-5 March at London's ExCel.

Pick up some Passivhaus literature at Stand E60. Do not miss the Passivhaus Superstars session highlighting stand-out projects that have hit the headlines and our TV screens in 2019.

If you are a PHT member and exhibiting or discussing Passivhaus at Futurebuild, please let us know your stand number or details of your Passivhaus talk so that we may promote your activities. Email info@passivhaustrust.org.uk with the subject line Futurebuild.
