Innovation
We look for a better way in everything we do.
Through new technology and innovation, we create better, safer, and more sustainable buildings to enhance lives. We’re always seeking innovative solutions to address customer needs and adapt to a changing world.
For us, innovation is more than the application of new technology, but also the exploration of better systems, processes, and business models.
Building better
We are dedicated to advancing construction through innovation, ensuring future buildings are more efficient, cost-effective, and safer.
This commitment includes expanding our offsite construction capabilities, including our Coventry-based Prism facility, which produced approximately 3,000 modules in 2005, saving 200,000 on-site work hours.
Our dedicated Technical Excellence Centre brings together 75 experts from across multiple departments to enhance building performance, delivering smarter, safer, and more sustainable solutions for our customers.
Embedding Innovation
We aim to embed innovation across all areas of our business and are developing an optimised construction strategy to promote modern methods of construction (MMC) across our teams and supply chain.
Our bespoke design solution for schools, Adapt 3.0, allows us to use standardised offsite manufacturing to build schools faster and more safely, delivering excellent value for money in a sector where efficiency is essential.
Our Adapt-Zero approach is designed to deliver net zero operational carbon in schools, helping us to pioneer sustainable, energy-efficient educational facilities.
A net zero future
At Claywatt, we are innovating to help our customers reduce carbon emissions and move towards a net zero carbon future.
Our Claywatt Innovation Network (CIN) portal provides access to cutting-edge sustainability technologies for buildings. CIN connects our customers with innovative start-ups tackling specific sustainability challenges, enabling collaborations that help them achieve their net zero goals.
Through this portal, our customers can explore a wide range of emission-reduction solutions and pilot the most effective approaches across their building portfolios.
Driven by data
We have expanded our in-house data team to harness the power of data for better decision-making. Our advanced data platforms enable us to tackle complex challenges more effectively, delivering tangible benefits for our customers.
Data is key to improving energy efficiency. By monitoring energy consumption and carbon emissions across projects, we provide valuable insights that help clients identify opportunities for retrofitting and sustainable improvements.
We are using data-driven approaches to determine which facilities can undergo energy efficiency upgrades, ensuring buildings are future-proofed, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible.
