Book a virtual meeting or join us in our studio and learn about the materials we love. Whether you're an architect, designer or maker, this free session can help you learn about recycled surface materials. Understand how they’re made, what they can do, where they can be used and how they can contribute to sustainable certifications. An informal session that will form more of a conversation that may be relevant for self-directed CPD points.

The training course is about 45 minutes long and can be booked over Zoom or in our materials studio in Hackney. Material samples will be arranged beforehand for anyone who isn't attending in person.
