SUMMARY:BREEAM Webinar Series: Driving Lower-Carbon Refurbishment Through Smarter Material Choices
DESCRIPTION:\n When: Tuesday 23 June, 2026 11:00am BST\nReducing carbon in the built environment requires a whole-life approach. In refurbishment projects, decisions about which materials are retained, replaced, or newly specified can significantly influence a building’s overall environmental performance.\nJoin this webinar to explore how material strategies can support lower-carbon refurbishment outcomes. The session will examine how BREEAM strengthens the wider carbon agenda and supports better decision-making across the project lifecycle.\nThrough expert insight and practical discussion, we will explore how material selection, reuse, and responsible specification can enhance environmental performance, improve consistency across schemes, and contribute to meaningful long-term carbon reduction.\nWhat will attendees gain?\n\nA clear understanding of how material strategies support lower-carbon refurbishment outcomes\nThe opportunity to explore the relationship between material specification and whole-life carbon performance\nClarity on how the Materials category strengthens environmental decision-making in refurbishment projects\nThe chance to participate in live discussion and Q&A with industry specialists\n\nWho should attend this webinar?\nThis session is ideal for sustainability professionals, architects, developers, asset managers, assessors, and organisations involved in refurbishment and fit-out projects seeking to reduce environmental impact and improve material performance. \nAgenda\n\nIntroduction: the role of materials in reducing whole-life carbon\nMaterials in BREEAM V7: key updates and strategic focus \nPractical application: material selection, reuse, and specification in refurbishment projects\nLive discussion and Q&A\n\nPanel  \n\nJennifer Dudley, Lead Product Manager, BRE\nAlejandro Romero, BREEAM Science Lead, BRE\nFlavie Lowres, Sustainability champion, Finishes and Interiors Sector (FIS)\n\n\nBook Now\n\n
