EnviroHomes is a local innovative company at the cutting edge of low and zero carbon buildings. They are the only company, in the UK, to design and install a zero carbon school building. See how these design principles are put into practice with a factory tour.

The company not only manufactures complete buildings but also:

  1. Sells Vacupor Vacuum Insulation Panels This is the most thermally efficient insulation material efficient construction insulant on the market today - giving the same performance as mineral wool but with 10% of the thickness. 

  2. Manufactures the innovative Loft-Pod.  This is a technique pioneered by the company and means that loft conversions can be carried out within a day. The company has recently completed a loft-in-a-day for conversion for B&Q on their exemplar property in Eastleigh, Hampshire.
