ECOBUILDPREVIEW

Showcasing Sustainable
Products at Ecobuild 2014
As Ecobuild (www.ecobuild.co.uk), the
world’s largest event for sustainable
design and the built environment,
gets set to return to London’s ExCeL
this March, Clearview takes a peek
at some of this year’s highlights…
An event that allows visitors
to see, touch and play with
thousands of products under
one roof, whilst checking
they are up-to-date with the
latest news, legislation and
incentives could potentially be
an overwhelming experience for
anyone attending, but following
feedback from industry
professionals Ecobuild 2014
has bought all content back
onto the show floor and divided
the space into three, easy to
navigate core zones.
To house this year’s conference
programme there will be will
be two Ecobuild arenas with
speakers such as Rob Manning,
the lead on Government Soft
Landings and Herbert Giradet,
co-founder of the World Future
Council set to take to the stage.
Visitors are invited to participate
