We’ve designed and developed a new high-quality website for Building Products magazine, the UK’s leading source of product information is the essential read for construction industry professionals and every level of the supply chain, providing key decision makers with all the information they need to make the best product choices.

The new comprehensive 3650-page website will help transform Building Product’s digital advertising offering.

It also features a brand-new search facility, updated media area, improved navigation and signposting to the newsletter, enhanced digital issues of the magazine, and a dedicated video news area.
Oli Ballard, Building Products editor, said: “With Building Products established as an industry leading magazine, it needs a website to match, and Purplex have a huge amount of experience designing websites for the construction and built environment industry. We wanted a website which perfectly showcases all of the latest industry news and is easy to navigate, and we’re delighted with the result.”
