General Admission £0.00
We’ve all seen Welsh Governments ambition to build timber frame, low carbon homes this is your chance to hear how this has been achieved.

You will learn how the United Welsh Group moved on from traditional ways of working, was willing to break something and then fix it in a different way. Offsite manufacturing, Design for Manufacture and Assembly and MMC all deliver better projects, faster for less resources which not only use less energy and perform better, but also drive enhanced social outcomes, including helping to secure the future of Welsh manufacturing and construction. The United Welsh Group is precisely doing this and developing a factory, which is due to open this autumn. It will manufacture timber frame structures complete with factory fitted insulation and windows to build up to 250 low carbon homes per annum. The facility has been supported by Welsh Government funding and is set to create several jobs.

You will hear how the factory creates community benefits at every stage of production, designed on the principles of developing the foundational economy and doing better by working together. We’ll hear how the factory will support the United Welsh Group, Local Authorities and other partners to realise the shared ambitions of achieving net zero carbon through the provision of new energy efficient homes, while supporting Welsh business growth and tackling fuel poverty.
