EP 21 - Revealing Construction Industry Secrets…

Saison 1 · Épisode 21

jeudi 13 juin 2024 • Durée 37:55

Send us a text

In this slightly different episode of the Thrive in Construction Podcast, we welcome our Technical Director at Darren Evans, Mike Brogden.

He challenges the widespread misconception that sustainability necessarily means higher costs in construction. Mike asserts that incorporating sustainable practices early in the design phase, as integral as meeting planning conditions, can actually prevent any additional costs.

Throughout the discussion, Mike emphasises the importance of proactive planning and integration rather than retrofitting sustainability, which often leads to increased expenses. By designing with sustainability in mind from the start, projects can remain cost-effective while also being environmentally conscious.

Join us as Mike breaks down complex concepts and addresses the pressing need for the construction industry to adapt to changing technologies and market conditions without fear of escalating costs. His insights highlight the evolving landscape of construction and the critical role of thoughtful, sustainable planning.
