Retrofitting

(services)

As the challenges of climate change and carbon reduction become increasingly important, DBR has continued to evolve its retrofit methodology for the adaptive re-use of historic buildings. The company has adopted sustainable conservation practices including the use of lime-based and reversible materials, sympathetic insulation upgrades, renewable energy integration and improved rainwater management systems. Combined with advanced technologies such as digital data capture and thermographic surveys, these approaches allow historic buildings to meet modern environmental expectations while retaining their cultural and architectural significance. DBR is committed to Net Zero by 2030 through alliances with Planet Mark and The Royal Warrant Holders Association and our approach to sustainable practices allows us to assist clients in achieving their net zero carbon targets on their heritage asset portfolios.
