BoBen construction has completed a new sustainable homes development in Rugby, using contemporary sustainable construction methods<\/p>\n
The Bilton Fields sustainable homes development was made using contemporary and sustainable construction methods. Completed with Charred Kebony timber cladding, the residential development retains a rural farmyard essence, in keeping with the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
The sustainable homes development has been built with the latest technology and the highest quality products, using zinc roofing, farmhouse brickwork and expansive glazing. Charred Kebony Cladding by Shou Sugi Ban was selected to provide a long-lasting and attractive timber finish for the homes\u2019 exterior.<\/p>\n Shou Sugi Ban timber is burned to create a long-lasting product with a distressed appearance, resulting in a sleek and fragile aesthetic.<\/p>\n Developed in Norway, Kebony\u2019s wood-processing technique sees sustainably sourced softwoods heated with furfuryl alcohol, an agricultural by-product, modifying it to maintain the same durable properties of industrial hardwood but without the same contribution to the carbon footprint.<\/p>\n Each home features an open plan internal spaces with floor to ceiling glazing surrounding all aspects of the house to create a truly light and spacious home.<\/p>\n The quality of workmanship on the sustainable homes development has been recognised by the Local Authority Building Control (LABC), who recently awarded BoBen Construction with \u2018The Bricks\u2019 certificate.<\/p>\n The project has already sold 10 of the 12 luxury homes to new owners.
