Breathaboard is a bio-based wallboard alternative, which stores biogenic carbon and can be composted at the end of its life. It has already been used on projects for the UK Green Building Council, Unusual Rigging HQ, and 1 Triton Square. More than 100 projects have now registered interest, Adaptavate says, with demand already exceeding 拢19m through letters of intent and offtake agreements.
L&G is relocating its London headquarters to 10 Coleman Street in early 2027, supporting L&G鈥檚 ambition to achieve operational Net Zero emissions across its occupied offices from 2030. The building was selected for its strong sustainability credentials, with around 95% of its structure retained during refurbishment and low鈥慶arbon technologies, including air source heat pumps, integrated throughout. The new office design currently under construction will provide a flexible, inclusive workplace that fosters collaboration, connection, and colleague wellbeing.
Mark Cook, contracts manager at Overbury said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e excited to be facilitating the Breathaboard trial at L&G HQ in London, because it allows innovators like Adaptavate to gather data on their new product鈥檚 performance in real world conditions. This helps to pave the way for commercial success and broader adoption in fit out projects.鈥�
Tom Robinson, founder and CEO at Adaptavate said: 鈥淭hese pilot projects are critical to help bring our products into mainstream construction. Support from organisations like Legal & General and Overbury, alongside strong demand through LOIs and offtake agreements, demonstrates clear market pull for Breathaboard. We are now focused on scaling our solution by securing production and commercial partnerships to meet that demand. The industry is ready to adopt low鈥慶arbon and carbon-negative alternatives at scale.鈥�
