ECO BUILDING SOLUTIONS Details
While homes are popping up quickly and affordably throughout much of the modern world, South Africa continues to face a housing crisis that leaves many people struggling. The Eco House is a modern solution that allows entire estates to be constructed in a timely manner for those who need them and provides years of passive income to the owner.Timber framing is a home manufacturing method used throughout the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, and Scandinavia. At least 70% of these populations are enjoying the benefits of owning and living in timber-framed houses.Each frame is engineered in a factory environment under strict quality-control using computer-aided design and automated manufacturing. The panels are then assembled at the build site with less waste and clean-up than traditional housing construction.Timber is acquired through sustainable sources who plant two trees for every one harvested. This practice ensures that the Eco House is as environmentally-friendly as it is economical.Once assembled, the timber frame can be finished with virtually any traditional outer materials, like stone or brick. Gaps between studs are filled with insulation that minimizes heat transfer to and from the interior of the home, keeping it cool in summer and warm in winter. Plumbing and wiring is laid safely within the frame. • 70% faster than traditional brick and mortar construction • Superior quality home • Smaller carbon footprint • More energy efficient – lower electric bill • Less material used • Capable of supporting large and multistory structures • Compatible with any standard finish • Significantly reduces damp and humidityThe Eco House can be assembled in one day and finished in two or three weeks. Production facilities are available in Belgium, Chile, South Africa, Angola, and Zambia to create modern housing for the mining market, affordable housing market, and leisure market, with models ranging from 55sqm to 240sqm.
