Alumasc Water Management Solutions has joined the Construction Products Association as an affiliated member
Integrated water management firm Alumasc Water Management Solutions (AWMS) has become an affiliated member of the Construction Products Association (CPA).
The firm was invited to join by the CPA chair.
The CPA represents UK manufacturers and distributors of construction products and materials. The association aims to increase recognition for the sector while reducing regulatory risks.
A privilege to gain membership
AWMS Managing Director Steve Durdant-Hollamby said: “It’s a privilege to be part of a high profile association.
“The CPA is the leading voice for manufacturers and distributors in our industry. It is committed to raising the profile of construction, which includes supporting and lobbying government and other public bodies in the UK to develop effective policies and solutions.
He continued: “The CPA’s recent ‘Flooding & Resilience’ workshops are clear examples.
“Recognising the need to protect our built environment from the increasing risk of floods, the CPA is actively building awareness of an important issue and working towards driving change in regulations and standards.
“We’ve attended these workshops and hope that as an industry we can come together to influence government and other relevant bodies to act on better flood resistance and resilience.”
Dr Diana Montgomery, Chief Executive of the Construction Products Association, said: “As the CPA’s membership continues to grow in strength and numbers we are delighted to welcome AWMS.
“The matter of flood resilience is an important one for the CPA and through our affiliation we will continue to build awareness on this issue. We look forward to working with them in the coming year.”
The CPA also has a number of trade associations within its membership, including the Builders’ Merchants Federation (BMF), British Woodworking Federation (BWF), Association for Specialist Fire Protection (ASFP), National Merchant Buying Society (NMBS), Future Water Association, BRUFMA and NFRC.
