The pressure on UK housing developers and contractors has never been greater. Demand for homes continues to rise, while labour shortages, compliance burdens, and tight delivery schedules make it increasingly difficult to meet targets. The traditional build process — fragmented across multiple suppliers and trades — is showing its limitations. Delays, waste, and inefficiencies have become the norm. Developers need a new way forward and Nudura is here to help. That’s why we’ve launched BuildEase – our new simplified ICF delivery enablement service that addresses the construction industry’s call for quicker, more predictable, and lower-waste building systems. Backed by Tremco CPG UK and powered by the Nudura brand, BuildEase leads the shift towards smarter housing delivery. Designed for housing developers, housing associations and contractors, rather than coordinating multiple parties and different timelines, our end-to-end service provides a single partner from the earliest design stages through to completion – From Design to Delivery – aligning your design for buildability, supplying Nudura ICF systems tailored to your site layout, ensuring compliance documentation is in place, and even supporting your team on-site. A full-service build solution – here’s what BuildEase offers: Nudura ICF System Tailored to Your Site One of the core features of this service is providing our waste-reducing, factory Nudura ICF components. ICF construction available from Nudura, provides end users with an eco-friendly, sustainable development. Everything is prepared off-site based on your approved site layout and delivered ready to install. This reduces on-site material waste dramatically as there is less rework; speeds up installation as blocks arrive in logical order and ready to build – leading to a cleaner, more controlled build environment. Built for Compliance – Including NHBC Compliance is another area where we offer full support. BuildEase solutions are fully compliant with UK building standards and backed by warranty pathways. Our ICF systems are designed to be NHBC ready from day one, with compliance documentation prepared to support your technical submissions and simplify approvals. Rather than rushing to meet requirements at the last minute, we work with your compliance teams early in the project — helping ensure smooth approvals, reducing design risk and minimising surprises down the line. On-site Support & Delivery Sequencing Our on-site technical support is a key part of the service. When it comes to execution, we don’t leave you to figure it out alone. We provide supervision and, training for new crews, to ensure our ICF systems are installed quickly and correctly – minimising errors. We believe in being present and proactive by providing regular site visits and a technical support hotline, because we know how much is riding on every stage of your delivery timeline. Sustainable and Site-Smart At the heart of our BuildEase service offering is our support for safer builds and smarter outcomes. With ICF components arriving Nudura, BuildEase promotes reduced material waste on site and lower transport emissions. This helps developers meet ESG targets and planning obligations contributing to the builds’ sustainability reporting. Service that Delivers at Every Stage In a market that demands more homes, built faster, and to higher standards BuildEase provides the partner that delivers at every stage. From manufacturing to delivery and beyond, BuildEase is backed by Tremco CPG UK’s reputation for reliability service quality and technical care.

The UK’s smallest city, St Davids, is nearing completion of its final major housing development for at least the next 15 years, with every home finished with BMI Redland Cambrian Slate roof tiles. The 58-home Maes-Y-Felin scheme, delivered by GRD Homes, sits within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, one of Britain’s most tightly protected landscapes. With no further large-scale developments permitted in the city for the foreseeable future, this once-in-a-generation project faced intense planning scrutiny to ensure it preserved St Davids’ historic character in this designated conservation area while also delivering current building performance standards. “Building here required careful consideration of design and durability,” said Gareth Davies, Director at GRD Homes. “We needed a roofing product that not only blended seamlessly into its National Park surroundings, but could also stand up to harsh coastal weather and help us achieve our EPC A ratings. Cambrian Slate ticked every box.” Maes-Y-Felin is a tranquil development built to uncompromisingly high standards. The houses are traditionally built using the very best materials, giving them solidity and longevity. Time honoured touches such as native Pennant stone, Cambrian Slate roof tiles, and oak flooring combine with forward thinking additions such as charging points for electrical vehicles. Manufactured with over 60% recycled natural Welsh slate, Cambrian provides a natural slate appearance to satisfy demands for heritage requirements. While its mechanically fixed, clipped and nailed installation provides resistance to wind uplift, which was critical for St Davids’ exposed peninsula location. BMI Redland supplied a full roofing system, including Cambrian Ambi-Dry Verge and ridge kits, to deliver consistent detailing across the scheme’s mix of single-storey and complex dormer roof designs. The project was also supported through BMI SpecMaster, the company’s free-of-charge roof specification service which guarantees system performance for 15 years. For GRD Homes, this provided added reassurance that the roofing solution would deliver both performance and aesthetics over the long term. To keep the build on track and amid industry-wide supply pressures, GRD Homes worked with local merchant LBS to pre-stock Cambrian products, ensuring continuity from the first roofs in phase one to the final plots still in development.  The development delivers 18 affordable homes for local residents alongside 40 executive and private properties, all built with locally sourced materials and trades wherever possible. “This project is a milestone for St Davids,” said Damien Pooley, Portfolio Manager for pitched roofing at BMI UK & Ireland. “It’s proof that even in the most sensitive and exposed locations, the right roofing system can help create new housing that blends with its surroundings.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
