Housing
Social housing is in crisis. Of the half million ‘affordable homes’ built in the UK in the last decade, just 14% were for social rent. This is forcing councils to spend £1.7bn every year renting unsuitable temporary accommodation. Of those living in temporary accommodation, 151,000 are children.
It’s clear that the UK needs to build huge numbers of safe and sustainable social homes – and it needs them fast.
Saint-Gobain’s optimised housing systems help you to do just that.
Our panelised systems are manufactured off-site under strict quality-controlled conditions and are delivered to site for quick and simple assembly. This process means we can guarantee thermal, acoustic and fire mitigation performance without relying on increasingly unskilled on-site labour.
What’s more, we understand the challenges faced by the sector, and we know we can’t solve them alone – so using our national reach and global scale, we bring together Housing Associations, Local Authorities, Architects and Contractors to work together, creating effective partnerships that deliver secure and sustainable homes at scale.
