Rounded Developments Enterprises (RDE) was established in 2002 with the aims of:
Championing the development of sustainable building in Wales by:
RDE is based in Cardiff and is constituted to serve the whole of Wales, but primarily works within SE Wales.
RDE provides a series of services.
RDE sit on the board of the Sustainable Traditional Buildings Alliance (STBA) and currently hold the Sustainability Chair. With the STBA we have been instrumental in driving forward the sustainable retrofit agenda. We are currently running projects with local Housing Associations delivering new ways of working that should help to prevent costly mistakes for the industry and environment into the future.
Most of the work of RDE is now focused on consultancy services and it has been very active in supporting the Renew Wales project in terms of assisting community groups understand their building assets. Work here tends to focus on the Whole Building Approach (as pioneered by the STBA) that helps communities address: the issues created by climate change; the opportunities granted by Asset Transfer programmes; the resources available through grant funding; and the inherent risks associated with social, heritage and economic change.
