Wolseley UK, the UK’s largest distributor of plumbing and heating products and a major supplier of building materials, is launching a guide highlighting the wide range of sustainable product choices now available.
The guide has been produced by Wolseley’s Sustainable Building Center (SBC) team, who advise customers on the selection of the most appropriate ‘sustainable’ products and materials for any particular building or development. Aimed at developers, architects, housebuilders and self-builders, the guide covers a wide range of products, grouped into eleven areas:
- drainage and water conservation
- walls & floors
- heating & ventilation
- insulation
- lighting
- timber
- renewable technology
- windows & doors
- wall finishes
- bathrooms & toilets
- roofing
The guide explains various technologies behind the products listed, and gives comparable performance data for specific items.
SBC manager Tim Pollard said: “Many construction products claim to a greater or lesser degree to be ‘sustainable’. What we do is to guide customers through the options available to achieve their sustainability objectives. Our first product guide will be a great help in this. It contains several new products, and products that are relatively unknown, so as well as product listings, the SBC product guide features background information, diagrams and photographs.
“Importantly, all of the products highlighted in the SBC product guide are already available through Wolseley’s nationwide network of 1,800 branches.”
