Amvic ICF System |
|
|
Info: Can be used for almost any kind of
building, including residential developments, commercial
units, industrial buildings, self-build homes and
extensions, basement and earth sheltered development. It
is a cost effective method of construction that is more
sustainable and environmentally friendly than standard
masonry or timber frame.
Amvic is the most
user-friendly ICF on the market due to its innovative
design, which increases speed of construction, reduces
labour costs and provides the highest level of
performance during and after construction. The powerful
combination of the patented, reversible FormLock™
interlock, EPS composition, innovative web design and
web spacing result in a truer system, that requires less
support during installation; less wastage when compared
against other ICF systems; the ability to withstand
internal concrete vibration, ensuring a structurally
superior wall. |

Passive Energy Systems |
|
|
Info: Sustainability is turning Britain’s
building industry upside down and offering new hope for
all our futures. Many house builders who want to be
energy efficient can often be left confused by colorful
promises and offers for various expensive renewable
technologies. What is often missing is a holistic
approach which takes all components into consideration
and shows what is actually needed to maximize the energy
efficiency.
With a modern build home
in passive house standard you can save a stunning 90% of
your heating cost and you will just need a small back up
heating which provides the additional boost in case it
gets very cold outside. The passive house concept uses
the principles of all-around super-insulation, avoiding
of all cold bridging, very good air tightness (10 times
better than the current standard) and maximizing solar
gains. Along with an optimized thermal envelope comes
mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, which
provides the home constantly with fresh, filtered air,
while hardly any heat is being lost.
The principle is quite simple. A conventional house
leaks lots of heat out of the walls, windows, doors, the
roof and the floor and needs heat pumped into it
constantly to keep up the temperature. That’s why we
made it our business to take on the whole package from
building the house with a very simple but fantastic flat
back system and with highly insulated windows with a
U-value’s down to 0.63 W/m2k. We also can install a
comfort ventilation and heating system which recovers
99% of your inside heat and does not disappear out of
the window. |

Eco Pods |
|
|
Info: Is committed to dramatically reduce our
carbon footprint, by building a range of the highest
performing, energy efficient, UK built eco friendly homes. Every
step has been taken during the design and construction
of our Eco Pods, to minimise the Homes demand and
dependency of fossil fuels.
This has been achieved by
incorporating the following features into the Eco Pod:
high level of thermal insulation giving an overall U
value of up to .18 for the 4m pod and .16 for the 6m
pod; sealed envelope (no air leakage); hot air recovery
ventilation; wood / solid fuel burning stove; under
floor heating; full recycling facility (5 separate waste
shoots); factory built (controlled work environment).
Optional extras: solar
panels -- PV panels / wind turbine / thermal storage
tank; backup generator -- dry toilet -- rain water
harvesting. |
