Commercial

Whether a 100-square metre industrial unit, a car showroom, a 5-star hotel or a prestigious office headquarters, all our commercial buildings are built to the highest standards from Structurally Insulated Panels in large format within our temperature-controlled offsite factory environment.

Whilst the physical building envelope is being made in our offsite production factory, simultaneously the foundations – consisting of piles, precast concrete beams and ‘Bison’ type concrete floor – are being completed on site. Our production factory produces both the frame of the building and the outside wall. These are combined in one unit which is normally 3.5m x the full height of the external wall to eaves.
There is no separate frame with our buildings. Consequently, when these complete panels are delivered to the site of the building, the walls and roof are erected in a matter of days rather than weeks, giving a completely weather-tight envelope.
This method of construction makes our Low Carbon Construction hybrid commercial build system not only unique, but one of the most sustainable and environmentally friendly methods of construction in the world.
Because our sealed wall and roof panels are 100% constructed in this dry, controlled factory environment, they are delivered to site defect-free, fully tested and accurate. We can deliver significantly faster to each development site than most builders. This is because we can disregard the weather, and eliminate poor workmanship and construction delays. This efficiency enables us to produce the most advanced and complete specification possible to all our commercial buildings. It also enables us to provide the highest quality at a truly affordable purchase or rental price.

All our commercial buildings come as an externally-finished shell, with all the features and specification listed below as standard:

  • SIPs modular structure giving airtightness and fantastic thermal performance.
  • Very low maintenance exterior finishes.
  • Aluminium gutters and downpipes.
  • Triple glazed argon-filled A-rated windows.
  • Full ‘commercial standard’ fire sprinkler system.
  • SAHP solar assisted water heating system.
  • Full ventilation system to ensure airflow.
  • Electric vehicle charging point.

The environment

In the context of the climate emergency, current standards do not go far enough to address this very urgent problem. Affordable energy efficient buildings with low energy requirements and low embodied carbon materials are paramount to contribute towards lower emissions.
