We are proud to continue our long-standing relationship with MAKAR helping to deliver net-zero, ecological homes, using locally sourced, natural materials together with advanced off-site manufacturing. The example below was recently completed in Moray and it looks stunning!

We excel in incorporating large section homegrown Larch & Douglas fir post & beam structures. With this, we can achieve large spans & vaulted ceilings, creating ideal spaces for open-plan living. Made possible through collaboration with specialist sawmills, including Logie Timber

A timber-based off-site construction system—Natural Structural Insulated Panels (Nat-SIPs)—allows for homes to be delivered to site as a series of Nat-SIP panels, with cladding, roofing & natural insulations already installed.🎥Progress footage of a recent home raising in Tain

Breathing fabric creates healthier and longer-lasting homes. We use layers of natural materials that are both airtight and allow moisture to pass through, eliminating the risk of mould growth while enhancing the air-quality inside your home. #healthyhomes #breathingfabric

Today we’re meeting up with ASBP member Neil Sutherland - at the SEDA round table discussions on motivating a low carbon bioeconomy.

Netzero will required reducing embodied carbon throughout supply chains - circularity, resource efficiency and a low fossil energy burden.

Scotland is leading the way for low in-use carbon by bringing in policy for #Passivhaus . Could it also be ahead of the netzero game by motivating the use of low embodied carbon natural materials. Today’s SEDA workshop will discuss the bioeconomy. asbp.org.uk/events/seda-la…

We have delivered over 250 of the UK’s most innovative net-zero ecological homes, using locally sourced, natural materials and advanced off-site construction with n-SIPs (natural structural insulated panels). Below is a video of one of our A3 homes being erected at Loch Lomond.

MAKAR Homes founder Neil Sutherland joins SEDA's panel tomorrow to imagine a fossil-fuel-free future bioeconomy - Friday, 5th April, 1:30pm.
