Passive Purple and the Considerate Constructors Scheme: Building Airtight, Building Responsibly

In today’s construction industry, how you build matters as much as what you build.

Clients, planners and the public expect sites to be cleaner, safer and more sustainable — and specifiers are increasingly choosing products that help deliver on those expectations.

That’s why Passive Purple® is featured in the Considerate Constructors Scheme best-practice library.

What is the Considerate Constructors Scheme?

The Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) is the UK’s leading independent initiative for improving the image of construction. Its Code of Considerate Practice covers how a site cares for its appearance, the community, the environment and its workforce.

For architects and specifiers, products recognised in the CCS best-practice library signal a genuine, audited contribution to responsible building.

How Passive Purple Supports Considerate Construction

Passive Purple was developed to deliver Passivhaus-grade airtightness while being better for the people applying it and the environment around the site:

  • VOC-free and water-based — rated M1 Class with no harmful solvents, improving air quality for installers and occupants.
  • Less waste, fewer deliveries — one installer can cover up to 300m² a day by spray, cutting labour, packaging and offcuts compared with tapes and foils.
  • Healthier buildings — the membrane also acts as a radon barrier, protecting occupants from harmful ground gases.
  • Performance in use — a continuous airtight layer reduces heat loss, supporting net-zero and EnerPHit retrofit targets long after the site closes.

Recognised Best Practice
