Ecobuild is The trade show for sustainable building

(Although there is some greenwash, it is a VERY interesting source of information & contacts if you have a building project)

Below is part of the conference programme but in essence there is a huge floor where companies are presenting their products. The company where Jonathan Essex works (Zedfactory) has been one of the star attractions with their practically full scale 0 emission house.
