Stealing the advantage

Welcome to In the Frame for October 2020.

Our September newsletter highlighted McKinsey research stating that some $265 billion dollars is up for grabs in at risk profit for smart construction businesses. Offsite and fast-build technologies are at the heart of this shift, so this month we zoom in on the benefits of building with light steel. We also showcase work currently being undertaken by Howick customers that provide evidence for how these benefits come to life. .
