If you're a property developer exploring modern methods of construction or a contractor looking to expand your skillset, this episode is packed with insights on the future of energy-efficient building, cost-effective construction, and the shift towards ICF (Insulated Concrete Formwork).

Join Glenn Kiely from Tremco CPG as he breaks down why ICF is becoming one of the most affordable and efficient MMC. From its early patents in 1948 to its growing adoption in UK social housing, ICF is proving to be a game-changer.

Glenn reveals how ICF eliminates big upfront costs, simplifies the build process, and offers one of the cheapest ways to construct an A-rated house. He also explains how the right skillset can help contractors transition into MMC and why now is the perfect time to diversify.

You’ll also discover how ICF compares to traditional construction, why it outperforms timber frame and SIPs in affordability and efficiency, and how it enables faster build times with reduced labour.

You’ll learn from Glenn’s firsthand experience, drawing on his deep knowledge of energy-efficient construction, cost-saving strategies, and the evolving UK property market.

Tune in to discover how you can apply these lessons to your own property projects.
