Inbrief

A buyers’ club for sustainable building products is to be set up to make it easier for construction and refurbishment companies to source sustainable products. The One Planet Products club will buy in bulk from accredited suppliers to offer lower prices for environmentally and socially responsible materials. The club, to be formally established in January, is supported by the environmental network WWF and the UK government. About 40 companies have so far confirmed an interest in supplying housing associations, private developers and contractors.
