Unilin Insulation launches new CPD on Part L 2026, the Future Homes Standard and the Home Energy Model

Unilin Insulation has added a new course to its Discovery Hub CPD programme, giving architects, specifiers and building professionals a practical, up-to-date briefing on one of the biggest regulatory shifts to hit UK housebuilding in years.

Introduction to Part L 2026, Future Homes Standard (FHS) & Home Energy Model is now available to book through Unilin’s CPD library, delivered face-to-face by our Specification managers and RIBA accredited.

Why this CPD, why now?

The Future Homes Standard is set to transform how homes are designed, assessed and built across the UK. With new compliance methodologies, tighter energy performance requirements and a fresh focus on embodied carbon on the horizon, the industry is under pressure to understand exactly what’s changing and what it means in practice.

This new session cuts through the complexity, giving attendees a clear, practical overview of the upcoming changes and how they will affect compliance, energy performance, embodied carbon and future housing design.

What the session covers

Delivered in a focused, one hour, face-to-face format, the CPD covers:

• Current Part L requirements
• Part L 2026 and the Future Homes Standard
• The Home Energy Model (HEM) explained
• EPDs and embodied carbon
• Fire safety considerations

The course is part of Unilin Insulation’s ongoing commitment to supporting the industry through change, building on its existing Discovery Hub CPD offering, which already includes sessions on embodied carbon and Section 6 fabric performance in Scotland.
