Straw Building Panels

Basically this means that there is not much difference between our two structural products cellulose or straw in regards to the rapidity of execution costs and precise control of the building process in an indoor precise environment.

Straw building panels. One big advantage of straw bale over conventional wood frame construction is that a straw panel will be able to dry to either side compared to most homes that include an impermeable barrier of polyethylene that prevents drying to the interior during our hot humid summer months which can cause condensation and hence excessive vapor mold in the house walls. Straw is an excellent insulation material the walls are vapour permeable ensuring healthy air inside the house and the materials are naturally renewable. Straw panels ensure an excellent and healthy microclimate for a building via temperature and air humidity regulation while also serving as an excellent sound insulator.

Today we build fully prefab walls with straw bale insertions in the same factory controlled conditions. A minimum of wood is used to achieve a construction that is cost effective and with no thermal bridges. Straw insulated homes have several benefits. Straw panels to prefab wals.

Many self builders have created beautiful and functional homes. For a long time the only way to build with straw was to do it the diy way. It has been a long journey but it was well worth it.
