The future of roofing

The future of roofing

Describing the role he feels manufacturers and the wider construction industry in future-proofing UK roofing, Mat had this to say.

“As a Technical Manager who has been with BMI for over 10 years this year, I believe that everyone with a stake in the industry has a shared responsibility to ensure we have the skills we need to secure the future of UK roofing. At BMI, I’m proud of our commitment to this. We have gone from ‘training is nice to have’ to ‘training is a must’ as a core part of our training and development strategy. That recognition is key for our customers as well, who put their trust in us to deliver roofing materials that will help them build roofs to withstand the challenging British weather as well as being compliant.
