Our Net Zero Mission
Across the Weston Group, we’re working to achieve Net Zero by 2040 and in tandem providing customers with high-quality, sustainable homes that are affordable to buy and run. Our Net Zero by 2040 commitment includes all three greenhouse gas emission scopes, including all the carbon we emit and energy we use. Achieving our target is as important to our customers as it is to us.
Fabric First with UNisystem
Our Fabric First approach is a commitment to optimising the performance of materials and components that make up the fabric of a building, to increase its energy efficiency once it is fully operational – on the basis that the best energy saving is to not need it in the first place. British Offsite, one of our five Group companies, and its UNisystem product range of internal and external panels, is the vital ingredient in our Fabric First approach.
Precision engineered offsite, UNisystem panels are delivered to a consistent high standard and arrive on site with insulation, windows and doors all pre-installed, enabling developments to meet or exceed all regulatory requirements and the anticipated Future Homes Standard for fire safety, thermal and acoustics performance.
British Offsite has taken traditional methods of construction and reimagined them to deliver energy efficient homes faster at a competitive price.
Design flexibility
UNisystem is flexible to any design vision. UNisystemLB (loadbearing) is suitable for buildings up to six floors. Over six floors UNisystemSFS (non-loadbearing) works in combination with reinforced concrete or loadbearing steel frames.
Both systems hold NHBC Accepts certification, full BOPAS accreditation and other relevant industry approvals.
Build sequence
The build sequence of UNisystem is notably different to traditional build. Up to 15 panels per day can be lifted and secured into place, creating complete envelopes faster and enabling internal fit out to start on lower floors while panels on the higher floors are still being installed. This can reduce build time by up to 30% compared to traditional masonary.
There are many more added-value benefits of UNisystem compared to traditional build, including waste reduction, site safety and overcoming skills shortages, in addition to building energy efficient homes exceeding the anticipated Future Homes standards.
Reduced financial and preliminary costs through fewer trades, smarter procurement, reduced waste, scalability and standardisation.
The use of UNisystem with British Offsite can improve first spade in the ground to first keys handover time by up to 30%, reducing the use of resources and site traffic, as well as delivering to customers faster.
Reduced build time means fewer staff journeys to site with associated reduced traffic and pollutants.
The insulation layer on UNipanel is made from recycled bottles, reducing consumption of natural resources and waste to landfill.
Dealing with skills shortage whilst creating new careers in Modern Methods of Construction.
15 UNipanels can be installed on site per day. That’s two panels complete with insulation, sheafing board, windows and doors every hour, reducing energy consumption in the process.
The U-value (thermal transmittance) of UNipanelSFS, can be as low as 0.13 w/m2k exceeding the anticipated Future Homes Standard.
Less time required on site means reduced impact of construction on the local community.
Panels are delivered to site just-in-time minimising road miles and energy consumption of deliveries.
Health & Safety specialists
With an internal team of highly qualified health and safety specialists, we set strict protocols that are closely managed, alongside regular training, information sharing and clear signposting.
In addition to holding an extensive set of qualifications for all aspects of health and safety, the team also has a shared philosophy of continuous learning. This involves investigating incidents and near misses when they do occur and understanding their causes in detail. Then disseminating findings to employees and subcontractors effectively, to prevent similar incidents happening again.
RoSPA GOLD AWARD 19th YEAR
We retained the RoSPA Gold Award for the 19th consecutive year in 2025, and were recognised with a RoSPA Order of Distinction for continual high standards — our health and safety record is one we’re proud of.
A dedicated occupational health nurse monitors long-term wellness, ensuring we lead rather than react.
We work very closely with our employees and contractors to ensure that they are working in a safe manner to avoid injuries.
Supply Chain Management
We meet all regulatory requirements for supply chain management and the protection of human rights, as well as working closely with our supply chain to source and manage both site personnel and materials responsibly.
We’re a long-term supplier to the WhatHouse Housebuilder of the Year 2025, Weston Homes, working with them across all styles of property and creating the fitout solutions they need for each space and interior design. Now we’re offering the same design quality and ease of installation to UK-wide clients, including developers of student accommodation, later living homes, social housing and private sale. Designs are adaptable and can be delivered at scale.

Delivering social value
Every project begins with research into the real needs of the community it will serve. Our social value approach is built around five pillars, with measurable outcomes agreed with partners from the outset. On previous projects we’ve delivered apprenticeships equating to 5% FTE and upskilling at 10% FTE, alongside extensive school engagement programmes with Construction Youth. As we grow, we’re committed to matching or exceeding these achievements on every scheme we deliver.
