This episode focuses on the issues associated with the building blocks of our infrastructure: the raw materials that are used for constructing and maintaining our highways.

And, it is fair to say, the materials sector has faced major challenges – recently with Covid-19, but in the background, there is uncertainty around Brexit and supply-chain issues, and then there is a wider challenge of the need to reduce carbon.

To explore this, Justin Ward is joined by Tim Mole from Fosroc. They are a CIHT knowledge partner. Fosroc is a global manufacturer of specialised construction chemicals that cater to a range of sectors including commercial, industrial, residential, marine and infrastructure covering Europe, the Middle East, North and South Asia.

This episode is looking specifically at highways and what changes have and might be required to standards in the future.
