How NBS is helping CPG UK’s Flowcrete to collaborate better with specifiers

Rejoice Chikosi / 04 July 2023

In today’s fast moving construction industry, it is important for manufacturers and specifiers to collaborate transparently for successful construction project outcomes.

Using NBS platforms has seen Flowcrete experience improved collaborative efforts with specifiers, resulting in increased specifications.

Flowcrete is one of Construction Product Group (CPG) UK’s portfolio of leading construction product brands, which also includes illbruckTremcoDryvitNudura and Nullifire.

Flowcrete has been delivering flooring solutions for over 40 years supplying both the industrial and commercial sectors with innovative, fit-for-purpose solutions to transform floors into fully optimised assets that actively enhance a site’s aesthetics, safety, sustainability, and cleanliness levels.

Sustainability Credentials

In a recent publication, the What Specifiers Want Report, NBS presented insights from a comprehensive survey which collected the perspectives of nearly 600 architects and specifiers. Key to the findings, was that 86% of specifiers are more likely to specify products that have clear sustainability credentials backed by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certificate.

Thanks to Flowcrete’s technical experts who have been working hard to ensure our flooring products are backed by EPDs, these have now been added to Flowcrete’s NBS Source Profile and linked to all associated products. 

With the importance of sustainability growing exponentially in construction, manufacturers like Flowcrete can use EPDs to support material transparency for building life cycle assessment and consequently contribute to Green Building regulations and standards.

An NBS Partnership

Through the NBS partnership, Flowcrete has gained visibility and accessibility particularly for specifiers looking for flooring product and system information, technical data, and documentation. With over 73% of UK architects (thenbs.com) using NBS, Flowcrete has benefitted through access to new customers and new market sectors.

By making key information easily accessible and centralised, specifiers can make informed decisions quickly and confidently. The in-house authors at NBS support Flowcrete by keeping product information up to date ensuring that specifiers always have accurate data up front for construction project specifications.

The benefits of the NBS partnership do not just benefit Flowcrete customers, but the construction industry as a whole as NBS ensures manufacturers are kept up to date with industry standards, latest guidance, and best practise.

NBS Source has empowered Flowcrete to deliver exceptional value to specifiers by providing a centralised repository and comprehensive platform for information exchange. As the construction industry continues to evolve, embracing NBS Source and its new features will be key to driving collaboration and success for manufacturers and specifiers alike.
