'CAB Heads for Ecobuild'

For the fifth year in succession CAB is supporting Ecobuild (Stand N432) to highlight its central role in promoting Aluminium as the sustainable 21st Century material.

Taking place at ExCeL, London, on Tuesday 5th to Thursday 7th March 2013, Ecobuild is the world’s biggest event for sustainability design, construction and built environment. CAB’s 33 square metre stand will be in the form of a drop-in lounge, which has proved massively popular in the past, manned by CAB staff who will be on hand to answer any questions relating to aluminium and aluminium products used in the construction supply chain. Most importantly visitors can expect to receive advice on where to find important sources of data to support the use of aluminium and up to date information on standards and regulations in addition to CAB’s ongoing sustainability projects.

Aluminium’s presence at the show, which is likely to attract around 60,000 visitors, has soared in recent years with many CAB members also supporting the exhibition in 2013. Justin Ratcliffe, CAB’s Chief Executive commented, ‘CAB’s prominent role in both lobbying and promoting aluminium’s sustainable credentials makes Ecobuild a must, but we are also delighted at how the show delivers high quality visitors with serious enquiries. Last year, for instance, there were over 8,500 architects who visited the show and we got to speak to a number of key practices.’

CAB can be found on stand N432 in the North Hall which can be added to your itinerary planner at
