UK Green Building Council

The UK Green Building Council (UKGBC) is a charity and an industry-led network with a mission to radically improve the sustainability of the built environment.

With over 400 member organisations spanning the entire value chain, we represent the voice of the industry’s current and future leaders striving for transformation change.

We inspire, challenge and empower our members, helping them to identify and adopt the most sustainable, viable solutions.

We also engage our members in advocating a progressive message to government, informing and influencing green building policy.

UKGBC was launched by the construction and property industry at the Ecobuild exhibition in London in February 2007. We were originally established to offer clarity, cohesion and leadership to a disparate sector, and to campaign for a sustainable built environment. We were set up with the invaluable help and commitment of a core group of founding members many of whom are still active members today.
