The materials in the facade of a building significantly contribute to the embodied carbon emissions ‘baked in’ before a building begins its useful life. This presents a significant opportunity for reducing embodied carbon. However, the challenge in facade design is that performance requirements are vast. WT’s Carbon Management Lead Imogen Lyons is sharing insights today at the Zak World of Façades conference on various facade systems and their impact on cost and carbon. Not attending the conference?

A conversation can change a life. Today is R U OK Day, and this year’s theme, ‘R U OK? Any Day’ reminds us that life’s ups and downs don’t wait for a specific day, and neither should our care for those around us. Our teams across Australia gathered to hear from a special guest, psychologist Helen D'Silva from Career Money Life, who shared valuable insights on mental health and provided practical tips to initiate conversations that could change someone's life.
