A new steel frame modular housebuilder, CoreHaus, opened its first factory last week to build 5,000 new homes a year within the next five years<\/h2>\n

CoreHaus’s 20,000 sq ft factor in Seaham, County Durham, is initially employing around 20 people but expects to grow to 100 once the firm reaches its optimum production volume.<\/p>\n

The factory will produce light gauge steel<\/a> frame homes suitable for both urban and rural environments.<\/p>\n

A variety of different elevation treatments and a modular core that can configure two to three-bedroomed homes will be manufactured.<\/p>\n

Managing director, Scott Bibby, said the product differed from other modular designs<\/a> because it was a combination of being part modular but with a standard engineered core.<\/p>\n

Modular housebuilder, CoreHaus has agreed to provide its first homes to Homes by Carlton<\/a>‘s Thorpe Thewles site in County Durham and claims to have an order book of \u00a36m.<\/p>\n

Bibby said the firm was taking advantage of Homes England<\/a>‘s decision to ask strategic partners to deliver a quarter of their homes using modern methods of construction.<\/p>\n

Brokers Hank Zarihs Associates said lenders were keen to offer property development funding to SMEs keen to explore innovation in building techniques.<\/p>\n

CoreHaus is a partnership between public procurement platform Fusion21 and Carlton & Co, the parent company of Northeast housebuilder Homes by Carlton.<\/p>\n

A hybrid modular home<\/h3>\n

Bibby said: “We already know there is interest and demand for our innovative product. The housing sector is screaming out for something that’s both affordable and incorporates high-quality design within a modular frame.”<\/p>\n

Modern methods of construction champion, Mark Farmer, who spoke at the launch, said: “I get to open a lot of factories but this one feels very different to me.<\/p>\n

“The product is very different to many modular homes<\/a>; it’s a hybrid modular home with its pod and panel approach.”<\/p>\n
