Panelised Prefab Engineered Componentization. While the industry has come a long way in terms of leveraging technology and advancing better methods of home building, there are some who may still be hesitant when hearing about other ways of home building outside of “traditional” or “light steel -built”.
Panelised homes are nothing new. It’s human nature to lean toward familiarity. People like to go with what they know. When thinking about stepping outside of their comfort zone with home building, some have the impression that “panelised” homes may be missing something. However, panelised homes are of higher quality of higher insulation and are less expensive than traditional homes, due to very low maintenance.
Don’t believe us? Read on.

''Here are the top 3 misconceptions of panelised home construction.''

1) Factory built home construction is of lesser quality....
This couldn’t be farther from the truth! Building products and components that are produced in factories are safer from all elements, variables of weather, weathering, the quality of supervision, varying trade skill sets, and more. Factory based assembly regulates quality assurance, specialization of labour, quality control, waste management, provides robust supervision, a safer work environment, engineering controls, and pre-delivery inspections.

2) Panelised home construction is just another type of mobile or modular home construction....
Panelised home construction is a method that uses advanced technology to build wall panels inside a quality-controlled environment that are then assembled on site. An added benefit is the time saved. Homeowners are able to move in in weeks — if not months — faster than many traditionally-built homes.

3) Panelised home construction eliminates customization....
This is also a common misconception. Panelised homes are exactly that: they’re “panelised”. The walls are constructed from the design, an enormous capacity for customization in the design process.

As to our roof sheeting we only use white Chromadek IBR profiled , thickness differ - 0.4/0.45/0.5/0.6
(On large project we do supply the client with there required colour)
Standard IBR roof sheets cover 0.686mm , the wide span cover 0.890mm and our roof sheeting has a covering of 1.000m.

The lifespan:
EPS panels is long, potentially unlimited. Most of the testing has involved placing EPS foam panels in a reactive environment such as soil where it performs extremely well. It is expected, especially in above ground applications that are sealed from pollutants and other forces that lifespan is indefinite.
Panels is incredibly stable, meaning it won't break down naturally. Test estimations confirms, it takes 500 years to degrade, but the truth is we don't really know - it could take thousands of years for it to truly biodegrade

Durability:
EPS panels are resistant to moisture, decay, and pests, ensuring long-term performance and reducing maintenance needs.
EPS is an inert material that does not rot and provides no nutritional benefits to vermin therefore does not attract pests such as rats or termites. Its strength, durability and lightweight nature makes it a versatile and popular building / construction product.

Construction Installation:
The lightweight nature of building panels makes them easy to cut, shape, and install, speeding up the construction process.

Test:
The study that was undertaken in Norway monitoring the effects of time on the performance of EPS building panels have concluded that no deficiency effects are to be expected from the building panel placed in the ground for a normal life cycle of 100 years.
