Regulating Innovation: NHBRC on IBTs, Housing Standards & Affordability

At the IBT Summit, Tamlyn Bouwer, Acting CEO of the National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC), unpacked how Innovative Building Technologies (IBTs) can help tackle South Africa’s housing backlog with faster-to-build, climate-adaptive homes. 🏘️ The summit showcased a range of IBT solutions already accredited and registered, highlighting real options that can be scaled for mass housing delivery. 📜 As the regulator, NHBRC’s mandate is to protect housing consumers by ensuring quality and safety standards — while working with partners to streamline regulatory processes that currently slow down innovation. 💡 High costs and regulatory red tape remain barriers, but the NHBRC is pushing for economies of scale, energy efficiency, and a social compact that could drive policy reform and grant restructuring to open space for wider IBT adoption.
