The Building Safety Act for Everyday Projects

Understand what the Building Safety Act means for manufacturers and the wider construction supply chain.

The Building Safety Act has introduced major changes to construction, with greater emphasis on safety, competence and accountability across all projects, not just higher-risk buildings. For manufacturers, this creates a growing need to provide clear, accurate and accessible product information that supports compliant specification and project decision-making.

This on-demand webinar brings together experts from architecture, construction and manufacturing to explore how the new building safety regime applies to everyday, non-HRB projects and processes.

The panel discusses the practical challenges faced by construction businesses and how different parts of the supply chain are adapting to new expectations around dutyholder responsibilities, building control, competence and risk management.

Chaired by Dr Stephen Hamil, Innovation Director at NBS, the session provides useful insight for manufacturers looking to understand how the Building Safety Act is influencing specification, product selection and accountability across everyday projects.
