 
rép Cottages
are constructed using precast
wall panels and prefabricated roofing panels.
The
cottages are:
Strong, durable and
quake-resistant
Cool in summer, cozy in
winter
Waterproof, damp-proof
and hygienic
Economical &
Consistent in quality
Quick to construct
Precast
Wall Panels

blocks, they are:
More resistant to
moisture - no horizontal joints
Stronger - internally
reinforced
Attached top and bottom
Quicker to install
Can incorporate windows
and openings
Can be pre-finished

rép Cottage
roofs are well insulated and waterproof. This allows
the cottages to be cool in Summer and cozy in Winter.
Ceilings consist of light-weight precast,
polyethylene reinforced cement panels. The panels are
covered with a layer of polyethylene sheeting, a
layer of expanded polystyrene and a thin continuous
layer of mesh-reinforced waterproof concrete.

houses are ideally
suited to small industries
Molds for the wall panels and roof panels are
inexpensive. The capital needed to set up a panel
manufacturing facility or an associated construction
business is small.
