Our mission is to make buildings better, and we support industry in designing and operating buildings that perform well economically, socially, and environmentally. We do this through providing independent testing of products and buildings throughout the construction industry; the sale, calibration, and rental of instruments; market intelligence; information; and consultancy services for design, construction, facilities management, and manufacturing. As a non-profit distributing member-based Association, we also publish best practice guides, hold an extensive library and run training and events. We have laboratories and offices throughout the world including UK (Bracknell and Preston), China (Beijing), USA (Chicago) and France (Lille).
