Wood is a traditional, but also a modern building material. In combination with metal, glass or plastics it occupies a huge area of application. We now use wood in housing construction, joinery, interior and garden furniture or other assemblies and items. We learned to find its flaws, qualities and also to enhance its basic characteristics. Long story short, we learned to ennoble it.
A wooden house is very resistant in time – contrary to our prejudices as they would be fragile or wood structure used in construction will deteriorate sooner or later. The structure of wooden houses will become tough and rigid unlike traditional materials such as brick or concrete, that after a period of several decades are starting to lose their properties.
It is well known that nothing compares with the good feeling after a night sleep in a wooden house during holidays or every day life. This is due to the excellent quality of air control, temperature and humidity, because wood is a “warm” material. Wood also provides to the human body good rest and sleep quality – which implicitly leads to a better quality of our life in all respects. Then, why not give ourselves a healthy environment?

Wooden houses have lots of advantages and among them:
• Sustainability
• Economics
• Safety
• Health
First of all, we should mention the comfort and well-being offered by a wooden house that are directly related to indoor climate, where we spend nearly two-thirds of our time. All studies lately converge to a very clear conclusion: the wood is comfortable at home as opposed to traditional materials such as brick or concrete who are comfortable only at temperatures in excess of thirty degrees Celsius.
At the same time wooden houses give us a natural treatment against bacteria and mold; wood itself is an antibacterial material, providing a climate for allergic people. In a wooden house we do not need air conditioning in the summer, because wood offers excellent protection against overheated summers.
Wooden houses made by Ecokit allows you to get at very affordable prices and in a very short time, the house you’ve always dreamed of. By applying this system to execute the houses, we provide an accessible and low-cost way to build a house and maintain it over time, ensuring all requirements and comfort. The homes built in this system will suit any architectural, traditional, contemporary and avant-garde preferences.
Manufactured homes using new framing system, are distinguished by strength, stability, ductility, low weight (thus reducing the seismic impact), durability, high thermal comfort and competitive prices. Also, during the execution, these houses are up to 70 % less than for homes built in the classical system.
Due to the low weight, the foundation needed to ensure the sustainability of the building is much more reduced, thus lowering significantly the cost of construction of a wooden house, without also diminished the safety you want. Homes built on wooden structure will customize the exceptional qualities of thermal and noise insulating floors (tread of high-heeled shoes , the marching children, fall of a heavy objects) and it will adjust and transfer heat very effectively. Wooden structures can get more easily and cost-effectively varied, with spectacular finishes.
