Article summary

The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) has published a statement on product availability from co-chairs of its Product Availability working group, CEO of the Builders Merchants Federation, John Newcomb, and CEO of the Construction Products Association, Peter Caplehorn. The statement indicates the overall supply situation has not changed substantially, however there has been a temporary easing this month, possibly due to a combination of the holiday period and some customers delaying or cancelling projects due to higher costs or cost uncertainty.
