IQ Container Homes are designed with both the environment and your comfort in mind:
- Shipping containers are made of non-corrosive corten steel, not only built to last but 100% recyclable at the end of their life. We recommend only using A grade (single trip) high cube containers
- We specify superior insulation which exceeds building code requirements and therefore minimises the need for heating and cooling
- Our standard practical designs feature eco-principles such as passive solar and cross ventilation or we can work with you on a custom design that meet your needs
- Off-site construction minimises waste & site disturbance
- Eco friendly products such as low VOC paints, timber sourced from sustainable NZ forests, LED lighting & Energy efficient appliances
- Modular construction allows you to start small and add-on when need arises and finances allow
- Quality materials and finishes as standard such as composite stone benchtop to kitchen and tile look lining to bathrooms
- Choice of colours and finishes as standard with optional upgrades
- Solar and rainwater harvesting add on packages available to further reduce your carbon footprint and running costs
- Off-grid designs available
