Building Research Establishment - BRE (United Kingdom)

The Building Research Establishment has been raising the standards of the built environment since 1921, and in the last few years has grown significantly, both through the achievements of our people and the acquisition of businesses with beliefs and goals aligned with our own. Its multi-disciplinary teams include leading experts – working in world-class facilities – in virtually every element of the built environment. They operate internationally, with offices, representatives and partners around the globe, and at its Head Office and major facilities in the UK. BRE is part of the BRE Trust, which uses the profits we make from our services to fund new research and education programmes. (www.bre.co.uk)
