A need for evolution

• Worldwide, over the last centuries Home Construction has been made with concrete or with wood frames.

• The use of both systems is diminishing very fast, since people around the world is looking for better alternatives.

Sunway Homes

Industrializes the

Homebuilding Industry

The use of wood frames in home construction is diminishing very

fast due to the following reasons

• Increase in wood prices.

• Decrease in wood quality.

Lower wood quality and higher wood prices make public look for

better home framing systems

Wood frames: A stick at the time, a nail at the time

•Highly qualified labor required.

•Difficulty on quality control.

•Lower wood quality.•Higher cost.•Higher maintenance required. •Termites and fungus problems (black mold)

Sunway Homes: A fast and efficient Construction

System

Environmental

Importance• To build an

average house it is necessary to

cut 8 to 10 mature trees.

A typical Sunway Home

utilizes the steel of 6 to 10

recycled cars.

Properly insulated steel structured Sunway Homes are capable of saving 50% or more of the cost of heating and cooling versus a conventional wood framed home, this results in the conservation of valuable energy resources and the lowering of the emission of hazardous carbon monoxide and other destructive contaminants into the atmosphere.
