R&D & CPD

Testing and Reporting

Independent testing for a number of construction materials is available.  We have completed testing and monitoring as well as identification of contributing factors of failure

Heritage Funding

We have successfully obtained funding for a number of heritage projects through the Heritage Lottery fund as well as through Knowledge Transfer, Innovate UK, PhD support and other university funding.  We were the first to secure Lottery Heritage funding for a project in private ownership in 2015.

Product Development

Working with Roman Products Ltd., Dyebrick Ltd., Enviroform Solutions Ltd., Fibrelime Ltd., as well as Sheffield Hallam University, Bath University and ARU University we undertake research projects and have both assisted with, and independently developed a wide range of highly successful new products for the construction industry.
