The Built Environment Division will include the Builder Group, Property Group and Barbour Group as well as the Builder Group’s titles, the interiors portfolio, technology and security shows.
The General Division will contain the entertainment and healthcare titles, along with the speciality chemical ingredients businesses and the agriculture, print and packaging magazines.
