IGBC Membership - APA Facade Systems

APA Facade Systems Join Irish Green Building Council

APA Facade Systems are proud to announce that we are now a member of the Irish Green Building Council.

A non-profit organisation, The Irish Green Building Council was launched in 2011 with organisations and businesses from the entire value chain of the built environment. These include universities, professional institutes, NGOs local authorities, contractors, architects, engineers, energy companies, leading national and transnational companies. All of these companies are united in one common goal – to accelerate the transformation of the built environment, related industry and supply chain to one that is sustainable.

The IGBC is now Ireland’s leading authority on green building best practices with a network of over 160-member organisations spanning the entire built environment industry.

APA Facade Systems have always been committed to excellent practice towards a more sustainable environment. We organised a very successful conference with TU Dublin in Cork last year – Delivering Commercial nZEB in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. The conference looked into nZEB Standard design through presentations of leading Irish and international building design professionals. A breakout session focused on technical solutions and an alternate round table session allowing business owners and managers to explore ways to re-orient their teams to nZEB through discussion with peers and international experts.

The IGBC website is a great source of information for sustainable building concepts and can be found through this link: https://www.igbc.ie

APA & The Irish Construction Network Boston

Logo of the irish construction network Boston

APA Facade Systems have been huge supporters of the Irish Construction Network Boston since its founder, John Clogan, started this meet-up group in 2018. The aim of the ICN Boston is to bring together construction professionals with an Irish connection in Boston through relaxed and informal networking events.

Boston has a strong Irish influence on its construction industry from Landlords, Developers, Foremen, Engineers, Project Managers and Designers. This group is open to all with links to the construction industry in Boston and those with an Irish connection working here.

 

The first event, sponsored by APA, took place in the on the 15th of November 2018 in the Backlash Brewery on Hampden Street. The Irish Construction Network has gone from strength to strength since with over 170 members after 3 networking events.
