The Pallet LOOP (part of BSW Group) will be taking to the Net Zero Hub stage at UK Construction Week in Birmingham at the start of October.
Presenting alongside Saint-Gobain, the team will explain how its bright green reusable pallets and nationwide pallet collection service are delivering far more than just building materials for the construction sector.
Nathan Wride, Head of Partnerships & Innovation at The Pallet LOOP, will take to the stage on Thursday 3rd October at 10:15am to outline the scale of the problem posed by pallets in the construction sector, describing the journey the business has been on over the past four years to deliver change.
Looking at some of the benefits now being delivered for the sector in terms of “driving down carbon emissions, reducing waste, and saving money,” he will “reveal the shift in behaviour that is now happening thanks to the support and sustainable leadership of British Gypsum, part of the Saint-Gobain Group, which has become The Pallet LOOP’s first customer.”
Nathan will be joined on stage by Ian Argent, Supplier Development Manager Net Zero at Saint-Gobain, who will explain more about British Gypsum’s decision to move to The Pallet LOOP as part of the group’s wider sustainability roadmap.
British Gypsum is now delivering all of its bagged plaster and a large proportion of its plasterboard products to its customers on the circular economy pallets. Once the pallets are free of their load, builders’ merchants, principal contractors and housebuilding companies can contact The Pallet LOOP to book a collection and take advantage of a PayBack of up to £4 for every green pallet “put back in the LOOP.”
Nathan will also be supported by Charlie Law, Head of Construction and ESG at The Pallet LOOP.
