Has water been forgotten in your 2026 strategy? This could be causing you to pay more than you need to. Only 26% of non-household customers have switched suppliers for a better deal since the water market opened in 2017. This passive approach is only increasing expenses.

Compliance is no longer an operational consideration. It’s a board-level issue. As regulation tightens across water, fire and building safety, the risk of getting it wrong has never been greater – financially, reputationally and operationally. To address these challenges head-on, we invite you to join senior leaders at Mitie’s Future of Facilities Compliance event on 1 July 2026 at Woburn Center Parcs. This full-day event will tackle the growing complexity of the compliance landscape and what it takes to deliver a connected, future-ready approach across water, fire and security.

Architects need solutions that let them create bold designs while still meeting safety regulations. That’s why Biotecture created Aluminium BioPanel, the first evergreen living wall system made with an aluminium shell. Replacing polypropylene parts with aluminium makes it less combustible, ideal for rainscreen cladding. It’s also independently fire tested with a likely reaction to fire of B-s2,d0 the highest rating available for a living wall system.
