We are pleased to share our first Day in the life video, featuring Taryn Service, Product Manager, in a series of videos showcasing a behind-the-scenes look of our teams across Knauf.

Knauf has developed a comprehensive apprenticeship scheme with several highly reputable apprenticeship providers for 2023, helping to nurture and develop the next generation of young people with on-the-job training and formal qualifications.

We are delighted that our National Account Director, Samantha Hanks, has been recognised in the Builders’ Merchant News and Builders’ Merchant Federation’s (BMF) Top 100 Supplier Influencers list.

Chosen by multiple merchants and buying group members, the nominees are recognised for their involvement, presence, and commitment to the industry, as well as charitable and community work. 

A skilled dry liner will ensure a perfect finish every time. They literally make the inner workings of a building disappear. But what they can’t eliminate is risk!

In this blog, we take a moment to reflect on Black History Month and the importance of diversity and representation in the construction industry. 

When considering which materials to use to construct internal walls, it’s not only factors such as strength and durability that are important, but also the performance of the finished system. 

We were excited to recently open our new staff ‘Wellbeing Garden’ at the Knauf UK & Ireland Head Office in Sittingbourne, built by re-using old materials and Knauf products.  

We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Modulous, one of the most exciting companies to emerge in the industry recently with innovative solutions for offsite construction. 

Knauf is delighted to have maintained our 'Excellent' rating for BES 6001 Responsible Sourcing of its plasterboard, laminated plasterboard and gypsum powder products - a rating that we have held since 2019.

Late last year, Knauf collaborated with leading prison education organisation Novus, whose mission is to improve the employability of those leaving prison. Knauf donated around 40 bags of its Airless Finish product to Novus and trained tutors at HMP Thorn Cross in its application. 

Today, we would like to inform you of the progress we are making after the cyber-attack that occurred at the end of June. We continue to work vigorously in reinstating operating procedures and are well on our way to achieving this.

As the long-awaited summer is now well and truly upon us here in the UK, many will be thinking of BBQs, and socialising with friends and family outdoors, but the soaring temperatures come with several issues for those working in construction. The sun’s harmful rays and hot working conditions can have serious impacts on both worker’s health and the products and materials being used on site.
