Commitment to Sustainability

Nudura’s commitment to sustainability and innovation plays a part into setting new standards for eco-friendly building solutions. As the demand for sustainable housing grows, Nudura’s approach to Modern Methods of Construction offers a viable, long-term, low-risk, solution that supports a greener future.

Eco-Friendly Products

Nudura is known for its eco-friendly Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs), which replace traditional building materials with sustainable alternatives. Nudura ICFs are made from two panels of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) insulation, connected by a web made from 100% recycled polypropylene.

These materials provide developers with a sustainable building material, that are designed to fit together, minimising waste from off cuts. Waste can be reduced entirely by adopting the precut system. A system that provides a dual benefit; reducing on site waste for developers, while giving homeowners confidence that their home is built with precision and efficiency in mind.

Energy Efficiency

One of the most significant benefits of using Nudura ICF in new build houses is the superior energy efficiency they provide. These forms create a high performance building envelope that significantly reduces heat loss as well as maintaining indoor temperatures with minimal energy consumption.

The ‘U’ value is a unit of measurement that determines the amount of heat that is lost through the materials in a building. And if Nudura exceeds current ‘U’ value building regulations, it will create a lasting positive impact for developers looking to provide lower heating and cooling costs for homeowners.

Durability and Longevity

Beyond energy efficiency, Nudura ICF structures offer unmatched durability and longevity. Unlike traditional construction materials ICF buildings are resistant to rot, corrosion and degradation. With their concrete reinforced structure, Nudura homes are made to withstand extreme weather conditions, ensuring they maintain their integrity for decades. This extended lifespan reduces the need for repairs and replacements, saving homeowners money on unforeseen circumstances.

Nudura forms comprise of Duralock technology, which securely lock into place with a patented reversible triple tooth interlock. This inbuild locking system eliminates the amount of extra building materials needed during construction which streamlines the building process and reduces waste.

Beech Developments

At the Beech Development site in Chwilog, Wales, eighteen sustainable and passive new build homes stand. This development exemplifies the successful fusion of Nudura’s innovative building methods with the broader landscape of mainstream house building. Read more here.

Conclusion

Sustainability is no longer a consideration in new build homes, it is a necessity. By providing innovative Insulated Concrete Forms that reduce waste, lower energy consumption, and extend building lifespans, Nudura supports a construction approach that meets both current environmental demands and future resilience.
