Rob Ferrari is an experienced business manager with a demonstrated history of delivering business solutions for the construction and industrial sectors. He currently manages CSR Inclose – a division of CSR Building Products that designs, engineers, fabricates and installs a unitised commercial façade system. 

Since joining CSR Building Products 13 years ago, Rob has focused on developing integrated products that meet requirements for performance and buildability. That includes advocating the use of pressure equalised rainscreen façades, gasket interfaces and continuous insulation to improve thermal performance and air infiltration – and provide a watertight building envelope. 

Over the past four years, Rob has also developed a new business, Unitised Rainscreen Façades, which delivers a total building envelope solution by incorporating building science, design and offsite manufacturing.  

Rob believes that there is a great opportunity for manufacturers, designers and builders to work together to develop smarter and more efficient methods of construction.
