Tackling the retrofit challenge

In the UK we have the oldest housing stock in the developed world & an urgent need to address energy efficiency;• 50% of homes are over 50 years old & 20% are

more than 100 years old with solid walls

Saint-Gobain is striving to make existing buildings safer, warmer, more energy efficient

We are a key player in many retrofit projects which offer a bespoke solution to the problem of an ageing housing stock
