Retrofit Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Innovation Centre (RAMMIC)
The Retrofit Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Innovation Centre (RAMMIC) brings together research, industry and innovation to accelerate the development of solutions that improve the energy performance of buildings and support the UK’s transition to net zero.
Funded through the UK Government’s Local Innovation Partnerships Fund and delivered through UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), RAMMIC aims to bridge the gap between research and real-world application by supporting the development, testing and commercialisation of innovative retrofit technologies for homes and commercial buildings.
Through collaboration between the University of Salford, The University of Manchester, the Energy Innovation Agency and Sustainable Ventures, RAMMIC combines research expertise, specialist facilities and industry partnerships to help bring new retrofit solutions closer to market.
At Energy House Labs, the project builds on our expertise in building performance research and testing, helping to explore how innovative materials, technologies and retrofit approaches can contribute to more energy-efficient, comfortable and sustainable buildings.
