Honka Launch the new Gateway to Nature Collection
Let us introduce you to our new luxurious Gateway to Nature Collection, where the indoor and outdoor blend harmoniously.
These new house designs offer a glimpse of contemporary Nordic design for which Honka are renowned, and that has seen us deliver more than 90,000 houses globally since 1958.
The properties emphasise the outdoor space as much as the interior, and further strengthens the relationship we have with nature. We are fighting the effects of climate change by using wood in the construction of our homes, which is locking carbon in to the fabric of the building for many generations.

The Bat Conservation Trust:
The important role self builders and renovators can play in bat conservation
Bats are unique and play a vital role in our environment but during the last century populations suffered severe declines.
The Bat Conservation Trust is the leading non-governmental organisation in the UK devoted to securing the future of bats and the landscapes that support them in this ever-changing world. Bats are protected by law and the positive effects of this can be seen in some populations, but there’s a long way to go to achieve a world rich in wildlife where bats and people thrive together.
Please visit Stand 190 or BCT industry webpages for guidance on protecting bats and benefiting nature and people:
You can find The Bat Conservation Trust at Stand 190 in the Trade Village, or in the Professional Services Hub.
