Have A Look Inside
Engineered to perfection.
We build homes with exacting precision using our advanced hybrid steel frame construction system (patent pending), and our unique design software drives the entire process from conception to delivery. Unlike conventional construction, we build a full 3D model of each home down to the last nut and bolt providing complete traceability, removing all uncertainty from the process and allowing us to provide you complete predictability with a fixed price from the outset.
Designed for your location.
Different locations have different building codes, varying rules and regulations, and geographical challenges. Our highly experienced structural engineers and architects meticulously evaluate all local requirements to ensure that your home is tailored to meet location-specific needs. This approach guarantees compliance with all regulations while addressing the unique environmental factors such as wind, rainfall, seismic activity, and other relevant considerations. We ensure that every aspect of your modular home is designed for durability and sustainability, providing a safe and resilient living environment suited to its geographical context.
Resilient to your climate.
Whether your location is prone to earthquakes, hurricanes, or is in a fire risk area, our homes are engineered to provide the highest level of safety by incorporating appropriate materials and construction techniques. Each modular prefab home is designed with resilience in mind, utilizing advanced engineering principles and sustainable practices to ensure durability against natural disasters. By selecting high-performance materials and innovative building methods, we create living spaces that not only meet but exceed safety standards, allowing homeowners to feel secure regardless of environmental challenges.
Totally sustainable.
Our homes are manufactured entirely from 100% recyclable materials and are designed to preserve the environment by providing exceptional thermal insulation performance, minimising running costs and reducing power consumption.
Steel is the only material that retains all its strength no matter how many times it is recycled. As a result, nearly 100% of all structural steel is recycled, making steel the only logical and responsible choice for sustainable construction.
Protecting you from the elements
-
WIND
The Element range of homes are built around a structural steel frame engineered to design wind loads of 200MPH. Impact resistant building finishes and laminated security glass protect the building from windbourne debris.
-
FIRE
The structure components are made of steel, galvanized for corrosion protection, and non combustible. The entire building envelope is protected by innovative, non combustible materials with a Class A fire rating, the highest standard for flame resistance and fire penetration.
-
EARTH
Each home is engineered to respond to the seismic risk of the build location and corresponding building codes. Steel frame homes are resilient to earthquakes due to steel's high strength-to-weight ratio, ductility (ability to bend without breaking), and flexibility, allowing it to absorb and dissipate seismic energy during an earthquake, making it a superior choice for earthquake-prone areas
-
WATER
Our exceptional steel frame homes are designed with air and watertight finishes. The innovative structural connection to the foundation allows for homes to be constructed on elevated piles or platforms in flood risk locations.
