As a much more sustainable material than traditional options like steel and concrete, the panels have been transported to the UK and assembled on-site in Manchester, by a small specialised team and Manchester construction partners <a href=\"https:\/\/artezgroup.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Artez<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As well as using modern methods of construction, keeping waste to a minimum and ensuring accuracy, the CLT gives the homes a unique look. The exposed CLT forms the main structure as well as the internal walls and ceilings, whilst providing a highly rated insulation performance throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>From its beginnings in Northern Spain, where the Radiata pine is grown in sustainable forests with PEFC certification, the CLT wood has its own passport which advises which area and year it comes from.<\/p>\n<h3>Environmentally innovative modular homes<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking about why it\u2019s tradition to place a tree on the building Jonathan Falkingham at Urban Splash explained: \u201cIt\u2019s long been a construction convention to place a tree on the roof of a new building, followed by a celebratory beer or two and we\u2019re happy we\u2019ve brought this back to Manchester!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe tree is symbolic of the incredible design, construction, people and materials that have been used to create these exciting modular homes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Falkingham added: \u201cThe Mansion House apartments boast incredible dual-aspect views, including over the Marina and New Islington\u2019s Cotton Field Park.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs with other House by Urban Splash homes, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/modular-construction-news\/modular-homes-uk\/67794\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">environmentally innovative homes<\/a> give

We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
