Actis has joined the National Home Improvement Council (NHIC).
The company stated that membership with the NHIC means it can take part in discussions which help shape industry policies and standards and look at vital issues such as carbon reduction targets and compliance.
With a mantra of ‘doing more with less’, Actis said it aims to enable builders to construct thermally efficient properties with minimal impact on the environment.
Actis was awarded the international Cradle to Cradle Certified Certification for its nature-inspired Hybris insulation.
The bronze level accreditation, awarded by the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute, saw Hybris measured against five rigorous criteria including: product circularity, material health, clean air and climate protection, water and soil stewardship and social fairness.
Actis has also launched its two RIBA-approved CPD modules titled ‘Tomorrow’s Insulation Solutions for Future Homes Standards’ and ‘Addressing the Performance Gap with Reflective Insulation’. The modules give guidance on how to meet energy efficiency targets and achieve as-built performance.
