Manufacturing

Eco Terra Invest aims to deliver the most affordable and sustainable systems for houses and other buildings, and is prepared for the deployment and development of ‘factories’ to manufacture the components when the situation arises.

This is usually the case with large orders and where the market has a substantial demand for ‘social housing’ as well as being an anchor for vicinity markets that also have a high demand.

Together with our partners, such ‘factories’ can be developed efficiently and speedily to suit the requirements of the locations where they are deployed.

Production Line

Our aim is to reduce transportation and create jobs in the countries we are acting. With the sufficient amount of houses, we are able to erect a complete production line for the housing parts. Local content for the components, such as doors, windows and the steel frame is used whenever possible.

Our production lines are designed to produce 500 houses per month. For higher production we prefer to set up a second line, possibly in another region to be as close to the customer as possible. We have a preference for local staff trained by us. In our production site we also train the assembling teams.

Assembly

Assembling our houses is easy. Upon receiving the kit for a small house, with the required infrastructure in place a small team can assemble your house within a day. The system is modular and comes with a manual and an assembling video.

For our villas and colonies we offer trained staff for assembly. Depending on the design our professional teams can erect 100 square meters in a day.

Quality Control

All our construction materials have ISO and/or CE certification. Quality control for Eco Terra Invest does not end when your house leaves the factory. Packing, Transport, Storage and Assembly is performed under our supervision following high standards of quality. This is why we can provide a thirty year guarantee on our construction materials.
