Did you know that Miscanthus has water vapour permeability properties compatible with that in traditional construction and sequesters carbon (around 130 kg CO2eq/m3)?
Join us on Wednesday 6th July, 7pm (GMT) as we discuss the building potential in construction of this bio based material.
The talk will be led by PHD Research student, Fabrice Ntimugura (University of Exeter) and will be followed by a Q&A session.
