Our pods are equipped to operate off-grid, with mains power backup for added reliability during dark winter days. This setup significantly minimizes CO2 emissions and helps lower your electricity bills.
Climate change has consequences for all of us. Rising sea levels, melting polar ice caps, severe fires, flooding and catastrophic storms and declining biodiversity are not just happening globally, they are happening locally. Greenhouse gas emissions including carbon dioxide and methane are a result of the energy we use to drive our cars, heat our homes and land fill emissions from our waste products.
All timber used in our pods is FSC certified, sourced from sustainable forests. This ensures responsible forestry practices and supports environmental conservation, aligning with our commitment to sustainability.
Long-term durability is essential for sustainable construction. Our aluminum components, protected by a natural oxide layer, are resistant to rot, corrosion, and decay, extending the usable life of our pods significantly.
Our pods are made with 80% recycled aluminum from pre- and post-consumer scrap. The structures are airtight, preventing drafts that cause heat loss, which enhances energy efficiency and comfort within the pods.
Through a combination of primary and secondary insulation we ensure that all of our products are energy efficient and consistantly maintain a comfortable internal environment
Each pod features an air source heat pump with mechanical ventilation for consistent year-round climate control. This system provides fresh air changes every hour while using minimal energy, promoting a healthy living space.
Our pods come with double or triple glazing and thermal breaks to minimize heat loss through windows. This design choice not only conserves energy but also improves the overall comfort and sustainability of our pods.
We prioritize sustainability in our supply chain, with more than 80% of our suppliers located within 50 miles of our factory. This approach significantly reduces road transport emissions and supports local economies.
At the end of their life cycle, our pods can be dismantled and recycled, minimizing their environmental impact. This commitment to recyclability ensures that our products contribute positively to a sustainable future.
We aim to minimise the environmental impact of our products for ourselves and our clients and will continue to strive towards net zero operation before 2035. Continuous improvement against this target is monitored quarterly.
