Alsecco UK has become a member of the Offsite Alliance to demonstrate its commitment to innovation and sustainability in the built environment.
The Offsite Alliance is a forward-thinking community of businesses dedicated to transforming the construction industry through offsite manufacturing and modern methods of construction (MMC).
As a specialist in efficient, low-carbon building envelope technologies, Alsecco’s expertise in offsite-manufactured façade systems aligns with the ambitious aims of the Offsite Alliance.
These include no lesser goal than to create a transformed construction industry, with productivity, innovation, and sustainability at its heart, streamlined in all its processes, loved by the masses, and exciting to the next generation.
Dean Broughton, Managing Director of Alsecco UK, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “Joining the Offsite Alliance represents a significant step forward for Alsecco.
“We believe that offsite construction is key to addressing the challenges facing our industry, including the need for faster, more efficient, and sustainable building practices. By collaborating with like-minded organisations within the Alliance, we aim to drive innovation and contribute to the wider adoption of MMC across the UK.”
The membership in the Offsite Alliance will provide Alsecco with valuable opportunities to engage with industry leaders, share best practices, and participate in collaborative projects that push the boundaries of offsite construction. This aligns with the company’s ongoing efforts to develop cutting-edge façade solutions that can be seamlessly integrated into offsite manufacturing processes.
Broughton added: “As part of the Offsite Alliance, we look forward to sharing our expertise in building envelope technologies and learning from other members. This knowledge exchange will not only benefit Alsecco but also contribute to the advancement of the entire construction sector towards more sustainable and efficient practices.”
Gaynor Tennant, founder and Chair of the Offsite Alliance, commented: “We work alongside leading organisations, industry bodies, and the government to raise awareness of the opportunity for a more efficient and sustainable construction industry and increase the uptake and delivery of offsite construction methods.
“Alsecco’s joining strengthens the Alliance’s collective expertise, particularly in the crucial area of building envelopes and energy efficiency. As the construction industry continues to evolve, partnerships like this will play a vital role in driving innovation, improving productivity, and addressing the pressing need for low-environmental-impact, high-quality housing and infrastructure in the UK. So, we are delighted to have Alsecco on board”
