Speedwall - Low Cost Housing

Speedwall is one of the world's leading Low Cost Mass Housing construction technology suppliers, focused in providing solutions to affordable mass housing projects. Our unique capability in this area has led to our involvement in projects across the world and resulted in the successful delivery of over 4,000 housing units to date.

The  Speedwall Building System has been designed to address the unique issues that face low cost housing and construction groups working in difficult environments. Since its first inception, theSpeedwall Building System has evolved over a period of 20 years to become the most cost effective and rapid building solution in the market, based on the production of unique structural insulated building panels. The principles governing its design were intended to overcome the challenges of building low cost, quality housing in the emerging and developing world in a timely manner.

There are a number of significant benefits of using our system as compared to most traditional construction approaches, the major being:

* Speed - one of our onsite panel manufacturing machines is capable of producing 240 panels per day and can be erected in situ within minutes of coming out of our mobile factory.

* Low Level of Skilled Staff - our construction system is extremely simple to use and requires very few highly skilled staff on site. This has important benefits in areas where in which there are skills shortages.

* Lightweight Structure - as our panels weigh less than 140kg/m² the overall structure is substantially lighter than a similar structure built using pre-cast, formworks or plastic moulds, yet the steel wire frame combined with the internal and external concrete surface provide super strength. As a result foundations are also usually lighter.

Speedwall Panels are made with a polyinsulator and galvanised steel mesh and can be used as internal and external load bearing walls, floors, partitions, and retaining walls. Produced on site they provide excellent thermal and acoustic rating to the building structure and are both earthquake and hurricane resistant.

Mobile Production Plants: Uniquely Speedwall produces its panels onsite in its patented mobile factory which is conveniently delivered to site and is housed in a 40ft steel container.

Comparisons with all other building systems including conventional methods such as pre-cast concrete, cement formwork, timber frame or plastic and metal moulding as well as other panel based technologies in all environments have confirmed Speedwall's superiority for low cost, speed of construction, strength, durability, versatility and ease of deployment.

Core to the Speedwall Building System is our patented mobile panel making machine which produces load bearing structural panels onsite suitable for use as both load bearing walls, ceilings and multi-storey floors. 

Speedwall clients include government agencies, housing associations, multinational companies, private contractors, developers and aid groups.
