Brick Development Association and Ceramics UK join forces

The Brick Development Association and Ceramics UK are set to merge to 'amplify their collective voice as one trade organisation'.

To bring these organisations together, the current Chief Executive of Ceramics UK (C-UK), Rob Flello, will assume the mantle of CEO for the BDA from 26 June 2024. 

The Chief Executive of the Brick Development Association (BDA), Keith Aldis, after eight years in the role, will act as a consultant to support this transition when the current Chairman Martin Warner, formerly of Michelmersh Brick Holdings PLC, retires in June. Keith Barker, Managing Director for Wienerberger UK, will then take over the Chairmanship of the BDA.
 
There will be no change to the brands, ethos and work of both C-UK and the BDA.
