The Australian Modern Building Alliance (AMBA) has welcomed the call for support for the construction industry to stimulate Australia’s economic recovery from the COVID-19 health crisis.

AMBA said economic stimulus for building and home renovation would grow manufacturing jobs and increase activity across the construction sector. It will also help Australia reduce its energy consumption and GHG emissions by encouraging the uptake of more sustainable construction materials in the built environment.

Chemistry Australia has today announced the formation of the Australian Modern Building Alliance, or AMBA, to promote the benefits of polymers in the Australian construction industry.

AMBA aims to engage with construction industry stakeholders and regulators to increase awareness of polymers as a safe and sustainable solution to improve the energy efficiency of Australia’s built environment, which will be critical in Australia’s transition to a low-carbon economy.
