DIY - ECO friendly building system
Our Park homes are pre-manufactured, assembled, and commissioned in our factory.
The parkhomes have a very strong chassis system that allows the park homes to be
loaded on trucks and offloaded on site again.
Our size range from a 6m to 12m lengths and 3m to 3.4m wide.
All park homes can be joint together to create a wider building.
This system is ideal for when there is no time on site to do the construction.

8. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) building systems
With the growth of the South African construction industry it has been realised that alternatives to the tradition of brick and mortar are going to have to be used to enable the building demand to be met.
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) building systems are commonplace in the rest of the world primarily because of EPS's thermal insulation properties and light weight.
The Polyblock system is based on proven technology used internationally for the past 35 years.
Polyblock is a hollow EPS building block which acts as a permanent formwork for a reinforced concrete infill and is used for building houses, perimeter and retaining walls, infill panels for steel frame construction, agricultural buildings and high rise developments.
The block stays in place acting as a thermal insulator for the building.
The system is finished by using a propriety EPS plaster - Polyplast.
