Stunning Cedar Clad House

We are very happy to share this stunning cedar-clad house recently completed in Cork.

Cygnum’s certified U values and thermal bridge models give our clients the comfort of knowing that our products offer the highest performance. The data can be used in BER calculations to ensure that all elements of the build, including heating systems, are cost-effective.

Munster Site Update

It’s full speed ahead on this large housing development in Munster! A growing skills shortage in the construction sector is reinforcing the need to adopt offsite construction and manufacturing to deliver speed, scale, and quality housing.

Programme certainty enables our clients to schedule follow on trades months before they are required.

Great to see such a positive response to the benefits of building offsite #timberframe houses.

Straight lines made simple

Straight lines made simple, we design our houses by lining up studs with trusses using a grid system. This is an example of our attention to detail and our strive for perfection.

Building towards a cleaner, greener future

Building towards a cleaner, greener future. One of the simplest ways to capture carbon and reduce CO2 in the atmosphere is by increasing the use of wood in construction.
