EPS Bygg AS is a Norwegian company offering a solution for swift erection of sturdy low-cost houses, for use in slum and disaster areas. The houses are fully insulated, and the flexible light-weight materials offers far better security in earthquake areas, than most traditional building technologies.

Erection work is executed by teams of unskilled labour, after a short period of instruction. Hence, prospective occupants participate in building their own houses. A team of eight labourers work simultaneously on several houses, commissioning one house per day.

Our solution includes a mobile production unit (MPU), to be set in production at the building site. The MPU produces blocks of the main building material only from minimized granules and local water, thus severely reducing the need of transportation. A team of unskilled labourers work at the MPU under guidance of one trained operator, producing a pre-cut building kit for each house.
