Energy Efficient Construction

Ultra Green believes the only way to maximise energy efficiency effectively and achieve energy security is to design and build towns and industrial areas that integrate all the components required to produce an energy positive solution today.

That solution includes everything from the design of the local infrastructure and the way it is built, to houses powered by renewable energy sources, to using alternative fuel sources to run local transport, and generating electricity from waste rather than precious natural resources.

Nothing need be wasted, and everything combined could produce an energy positive community.

Ultra Green has either developed or sourced services, products and technologies to provide this solution.

Shortage of fossil resources and an increase in the price of raw materials has led to higher demand for low-energy housing. As construction technology advances, professional property developers are abandoning traditional stone-upon-stone single walled methods of construction in preference of quicker to build, more energy efficient foam-based system.

ARGISOL, one of Ultra Green’s partners, has led the market in this trend since 2004 with the manufacture of cellular Neopor lightweight concrete systems, which can offer the maximum construction for the minimum cost.
