Constructing Excellence Event - How to Redefine Housebuilding

Dr Anthony Greer of TALO spoke at a recent Constructing Excellence event about redefining housebuilding

Dr Anthony Greer, TALO’s Executive Director for Corporate Strategy, spoke at a Constructing Excellence Kent event , sharing his thoughts on why we need to redefine housebuilding.


Some key takeaways from his presentation:


  • 70% of new homes in Finland are built offsite
  • In temperatures as low as -50°, exceptional air tightness and ultra-low energy homes are the norm
  • Having a mission driven approach – such as TALO’s mission to eradicate fuel poverty – should be central to everything you do
  • Partnership working and collaboration are critical to transformation and raising the standard of new homes
  • Redefining housebuilding needs technological innovation, a mission-driven culture and industrialised processes.


Commenting on the event, Anthony said:

"Thanks to Ellie Farlow, the new Chair of Constructing Excellence Kent for hosting an excellent event. It was great to connect with so many people who are as committed as we are to raising the standard of new homes."
