Introducing VituraTherm™

The Next Generation in Sustainable Architecture.

Our chalets are engineered with VituraTherm™ — a proprietary advanced timber frame system that redefines healthy, low-energy living through precision engineering and bio-based material science.

Ultra-Low Energy Envelope

Constructed to Passive House standards, our chalets achieve an airtightness rating of ≤0.76 m³/(h·m²) @50Pa — 10x superior to UK Building Regulations. This results in near-zero thermal bridging and significantly reduced energy demand.

Healthy Indoor Climate

We specify non-toxic, VOC-free materials across all layers, ensuring superior indoor air quality and long-term occupant wellness.

Carbon-Negative Structure

From FSC-certified timber to carbon-sequestering STEICO wood-fibre insulation, our material selection prioritizes reduced embodied carbon and life-cycle sustainability.

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)

Our system utilizes off-site fabricated closed-panel systems or volumetric modules, ensuring exceptional build precision, reduced waste, and accelerated on-site assembly.

Sugi-Ban Charred Timber

Bio-based surface carbonization provides Class B fire resistance and a 50-year service life without chemical treatments.

Thermowood

Thermally modified softwood for enhanced dimensional stability and biological resistance.

Natural Spruce

Treated with bio-fire retardants and anti-fungal agents for improved durability and aesthetic flexibility.

Micro CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber)

Engineered timber panels offering high structural strength, carbon storage, and natural humidity regulation.

Baltic Birch Plywood

Low-formaldehyde, high-tensile plywood used for interior detailing and built-ins.

Fermacell & Vox Panels

Recycled gypsum-fiber and mineral composite boards with high moisture resistance and acoustic performance.

FSC C24 Timber Frame

Precision-engineered slow-grown timber for superior load-bearing capacity and minimal deflection.

STEICO Wood Fibre Insulation

Carbon-negative, hygroscopic insulation that manages moisture and eliminates thermal bridging.
