Part of the

Knauf Group , we are the building performance solution for asset owners. We support the delivery of high-quality energy efficiency outcomes for new build and retrofit, as well as providing smart home services. Key to what we do is a technology breakthrough - the negaWatt hour meter. For the first time energy efficiency can be measured the same way as energy generation. A kiloWatt hour of energy saved is now equivalent to a kiloWatt hour of energy supplied.

This technology means that asset owners can:

Calculate the real energy savings day-after-day for building retrofits Properly benchmark the fabric energy performance of new builds and retrofits Create the necessary feedback loops to significantly improve the design and quality of work on-site We are recruiting a
