Product benefits


"Greener than a tree frog"

 

Labor Savings

  • Builders can build more homes with less staff.
  • Builders can use less expensive labor for framing the home.
  • Builders are dealing with one major supplier, greatly reducing estimating/purchasing and bookkeeping staff needs.
  • The panel manufacturer pre-determines how everything goes together and components are marked for ease of assembly on the job site.
  • Carpenters don’t waste time sorting through piles of lumber which are exposed to the elements and the risk of damage and theft.
  • Every hour taken out of the field reduces a builder’s liability, overhead costs, and amounts paid to workmen’s compensation insurance.

 

Reduced Construction Times

  • Construction projects are completed more quickly.
  • Completion and move-in dates are easier to predict and meet.
  • Costs associated with construction loan interest are reduced.
  • Delays caused by labor shortages and scheduling problems are eliminated.
  • Delays caused by materials shortages, late deliveries or wrong items shipped are eliminated.
  • Construction becomes more feasible year-round (particularly for colder climates).

 

Savings on Materials

  • "Waste" and costly human error on the job site are eliminated.
  • Reduced waste promotes a cleaner environment.
  • Less scrap on the job site reduces the associated labor cost for clean up.
  • Volume purchasing and tight cost controls by panel manufacturers enable them to negotiate lower prices.
  • With the computer aided manufacturing process, all of the "bugs" can be worked out prior to on-site construction.

 

Consistent Quality

  • Highly-automated, factory controlled conditions for panel construction result in consistent fit and finish.
  • Working indoors, under factory controlled conditions, framers have an easier time of getting measurements exact.
  • Problems from materials exposed to elements prior to home being closed in are greatly reduced.
  • A tighter fit is achieved with better insulation and blockage of air infiltration.

 

Marketing

  • Quick, accurate, and guaranteed pricing.
  • Improved communication from the construction blueprints.
  • Clean job sites.
  • High-tech / cutting-edge, approach offering excellent value for the price.
