Building towards a cleaner, greener future.. One of the simplest ways to capture carbon and reduce CO2 in the atmosphere is by increasing the use of wood in construction.

In December we held our annual staff charity Christmas raffle. We were delighted that our fundraising efforts raised €1,550. for our chosen charity Pieta .
Pieta provides freely accessible, professional services to people who are in suicidal crisis, and people who have been bereaved by suicide.
Today we welcomed Darran Coyle Garde, Funding & Advocacy Co-Ordinator for Pieta to present a cheque for €1,550. on behalf of all the staff at Cygnum.

Today, COP26 dedicated its focus to The Built Environment. The Enterprise Centre at the University of East Anglia (UEA) was featured in the ‘Build Better Now’ exhibition as one of the most exemplary sustainable building projects in the world.
The exhibition showcased building projects across the planet that offer solutions to the climate crisis through innovative and sustainable construction, design, and engineering.
Cygnum designed, manufactured, and erected the timber frame aspect of the project. Check out our case study for more details.
Cygnum’s innovative timber frame construction methods have an undoubted impact on both the embodied and operational energy of new builds.
Not only is timber frame a sustainable and efficient method of construction, the structures actually store CO2, thus acting as a carbon sink.
