Sustainability has been the buzz word of the year especially within the building and home renovation sector. The implementation of the 6-star rating has given the go-ahead for a new wave of energy-saving technologies, sustainable architecture, and environmentally efficient materials that reduce environmental impact.

It’s great to see the industry across the board putting their `green’ thinking caps on and forging ahead with eco-alternatives to improve our way of living and preserve the environment for future generations.

From the entire team at Build Expo Online, we wish you a Happy Holidays and best wishes for the Christmas season and into the New Year. We leave you with the top 5 stories of the year.

See you in 2012!
