There are many benefits to gain from Adaptahaus. They are listed below:
- It is innovative,
- It is an engineering alternative to archaic house construction
- It allows for efficient, quality controlled, pre-fabrication
- It minimizes waste
- It is energy efficient
- It is much safer to build on site









- The house will be delivered to a completely finished site with all hard landscaping in place and bolted together on to prefixed and leveled anchor bolts. The house will be weathertight within 1 week and fitted with fixed furnishings (kitchen and bathrooms) and commissioned within a further 2 weeks.
- Training schemes will be set up to educate the work force in new production and installation methods
- This system of “complete” off-site fabrication is better understood in other parts of Europe, it is likely that Adaptahaus will have export potential
- Quality accreditations are being pursued (and will be achieved); Code for Sustainable Homes, Passiv Haus.
- Once production line processes are established then Manufacturing Best Practices will be established incorporating on and off site based training, Investors in People.
- CAD Design will be networked with UK suppliers to assist the efficient design and procurement of the building components
- Chains of custody for components and materials will limit negative environmental impact
- The steel framed build with clamped in place panels will be “earthquake proof”
