Wood: a sustainable choice for building your home

1Eco-Friendly System
Wood is the only renewable construction material with low environmental impact, since its production and processing require less energy than other building materials.
The wood frame system is a dry construction method, which allows for faster project execution. Since it doesn’t require water, it avoids the setting and drying times typical of traditional builds.
Wood is a natural material that brings a sense of warmth and comfort to any space. Its presence in a home has physiological and psychological benefits that mimic the feeling of spending time in nature.

Sustainable homes

Our raw materials come from reforested woodlands. Trees —mainly pine and eucalyptus— are specifically planted to be harvested, helping avoid deforestation of native forests.

"Having a wooden house feels like reconnecting with nature and the truly important things in life."
