Technical updates to support your projects

July 2026

We are pleased to share a range of updates designed to support your projects from early design through to delivery on site.

This latest technical bulletin brings together new tools, guidance and insights across specification, compliance, sustainability and professional development. Whether you are looking for clearer technical information, stronger system data or more practical support with waste management, these updates are here to help you move forward with confidence.

A SIMPLER WAY TO MANAGE PLASTERBOARD WASTE

We have partnered with Reconomy Connect to help tackle plasterboard waste through a convenient, compliant waste management service.

Poor waste management can lead to unnecessary material loss, added cost, project delays and avoidable legal or reputational risk. This partnership is designed to make plasterboard waste handling easier, more efficient and more responsible, helping project teams reduce environmental impact while maintaining compliance.

If you are looking for a more practical way to manage waste on site, the Knauf Take Back Scheme now offers a clearer route forward.

MORE ACCESSIBLE PRODUCT DATA SHEETS

We have updated our plasterboard product data sheets to make technical information clearer, more accessible and easier to use.

Changes to typography, spacing, contrast and navigation help improve readability and support safer working. These updates were informed by insights from Neuro-Tide and reflect our commitment to neuro-inclusive communication.

For architects and specifiers, this means technical information that is easier to review and apply. For the wider project team, it helps remove unnecessary barriers and supports more consistent use of product guidance on site.

NEW CPDS ON FIRE AND ACOUSTICS

We have expanded our CPD offering, with a range of new sessions now available to book.

Supporting the design of high-rise multi-occupancy buildings, our latest RIBA-approved CPDs focus on fire performance and acoustics. They are designed to help specifiers stay up to date with current challenges while building confidence in design decisions.

As regulations and performance expectations continue to evolve, practical learning like this can play an important role in supporting safer, better-performing buildings.

SUPPORTING BETTER DECISIONS AT EVERY STAGE

From accessible technical data and new CPDs to independently tested systems, sustainability guidance and waste management support, this quarter’s updates are all designed to do one thing: help architects and specifiers make informed decisions more easily.

As project demands continue to grow across compliance, performance and environmental responsibility, practical tools and reliable technical evidence matter more than ever. This Q2 bulletin brings those resources together in one place to support your work at every stage.

Last quarter, we introduced our MW Acoustic Stud, 6m Shaftwall and our EPDs Unwrapped guide. You can catch up on these updates in our Q1 Technical Bulletin.
