Our Systems

ECO 220 Wall System

This is our most popular wall choice for clients looking for a quality, robust timber frame. This wall type is ideal for dense packed cellulose insulation, insulated fully with 220mm cellulose achieving a U-value of 0.16 W/m2k. An internal service batten, with additional insulation using sheep wool, as part of our insulation and airtightness package. For a full breakdown of the framing components please see details and specification below.

Factory-built timber frame panel to include:

9mm OSB/3 external sheeting, wrapped with Pro Clima Fronta WA Membrane. Pvc Strapping is used to highlight studs for wall ties/battens.

The external timber frame wall panels are constructed with 220 x 44mm stud at 600 centres. Panels positioned and mounted on a 220×44 pressure treated sole plate to Thermal blockwork/ Insulated Raft, depending on your design & detailed requirements.

220mm cellulose insulation, blown and pressure tested on site by our fully qualified and certified installers, testing carried out on day of installation. Cellulose insulation is a sustainable and energy efficient product because it uses locally sourced recycled paper and inorganic salts. The salts make the cellulose safe in a fire and acts as a natural pesticide).

Airtightness membrane – Intello membrane.

35 x 50 mm timber battens to form service cavity – insulated with 50mm of sheep wool (Thermafleece Eco Roll Thermal Conductivity 0.039 W/mK) fitted across internal face of walls eliminating cold bridging (supply only)

Internal linings are by others. A 15mm Gypsum wallboard Type A plasterboard is required on external walls and ceilings.

Internal walls are 89mm CLS timber frame studs, generally at 400 ctrs. Load bearing/ Shear walls will require 9mm OSB/ plywood sheeting – to be specified by engineers at the design stage.

All timber is PEFC certified, identifying the timber to be a sustainable material as it originates from sustainable managed forests.

PASSIVE 360

This is a popular wall choice for clients looking for a thermal efficient, passive standard quality, factory produced timber frame. This wall type is ideal for dense packed cellulose insulation as it meets the passive house criteria U-value with the thermal break which is adjustable to achieve a u-value of 0.1 W/m²k, if one requires a greater u-value to what is shown above.
The membrane is fixed to the external timber frame wall panels constructed with 89 x 38mm studs at 600 centres and 140 x 38mm CLS stud internally. The stud walls are insulated fully along with the thermal break to a depth of 300mm cellulose insulation, blown and pressure tested. For your internal services, a 50 mm service cavity to the internal side of the external leaf and the membranes taped and sealed as part of our airtightness package. For a full breakdown of the framing components please see details and specification below.

Factory-built timber frame panel to include:

9mm OSB/3 external sheeting, with Pro Clima Fronta WA Membrane, strapped to highlight studs location for stainless steel wall ties or battens where required.

The external timber frame wall panels constructed with a twin studwork and thermal break: 89 x 38 mm CLS VAC Pressure treated Studs at 600 centres external panel to thermal break 71mm to 140 x 38 mm CLS VAC Pressure treated Studs at 600 centres internal panel. Internal 9mm OSB 3 Racking to Engineers spec. Panels positioned and mounted on a 89x38mm & 140x38mm CLS VAC Pressure treated sole plates to Thermal blockwork/ Insulated Raft, depending on architect’s design & detailed requirements.

300mm cellulose insulation, blown and pressure tested on site by our fully qualified and certified installers, testing carried out on day of installation. Cellulose insulation is a sustainable and energy efficient product because it uses locally sourced recycled paper and inorganic salts. The salts make the cellulose safe in a fire and acts as a natural pesticide.

Airtightness membrane – Pro Clima Intello membrane.

35 x 50 mm timber battens to form service cavities.

Internal linings are by others. Usually a 15mm Type A plasterboard with skim plaster finish is applied by others.

Internal walls are 89mm CLS timber frame studs, generally at 400 ctrs. Load bearing/ Shear walls to have an OSB/ plywood sheeting – to be specified by engineer at design stage of Timber Frame panels.

Roof Structure

A roof structure, either full cut or truss, will be erected on site, with the aid of our crane, supply and fit roofing membrane and fit roof battens to required slating/tiling centres.
