SIP FAQ's
ecobode
Ecobode homes are architecturally designed for high performance, eco-friendly living, offering the perfect mix of style, comfort, and efficiency. These healthy, affordable homes are built faster than standard timber-framed houses and delivered right to your site—anywhere in the North Island! Manufactured in Wellington and ready to move, ecobode homes are the smart, sustainable choice for modern living.
Energy-Efficient
EcoBode homes are built using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) which provide superior insulation, reducing energy consumption and lowering utility bills
Features
Healthy
Due to the airtightness of our SIPs, ecoBode homes use a ventilation system that ensures consistent temperatures throughout the house, year-round, resulting in a comfortable, healthy living space. These systems also purify the incoming air, removing dust and pollutants and expelling stale air
Low Waste
As with all our Green Abode homes,
job-site waste is minimal due to precut panels (resulting in around 30% less waste being sent to landfills). We also recycle a high percentage of any waste materials on and off-site
