Off-site components supplied by Saint-Gobain Off-Site Solutions have been employed to build the eHome2, a test house at Salford University.
The house will provide data on how to design and build zero-carbon housing at scale using sustainable building materials and off-site solutions.
It consists of a three-bedroom family home built inside the world-leading Energy House 2.0 climatic chamber facility.
The project is a collaborative partnership between housebuilder Barratt Developments, Saint-Gobain Off-Site Solutions, and additional brands within the Saint-Gobain UK & Ireland group,
It was built using a combination of off-site modern methods of construction, with Saint-Gobain Off-site Solutions brands Scotframe and Pasquill supplying advanced timber frame products and factory-installed pre-insulated walls.
