Facit Chassis™, a meticulously engineered timber superstructure that serves as the foundational framework of each home. Much like a car's chassis, it is designed to seamlessly integrate all other components, ensuring a cohesive and robust structure.

 

The Facit Chassis™ is crafted from sustainably sourced, FSC-certified plywood, embodying our commitment to environmental responsibility. This timber structure not only provides exceptional strength but also acts as a carbon sink, reducing the overall carbon footprint of the building.

The Facit Chassis™ itself is constructed from an FSC-certified engineered spruce sheet, bonded with a bio-based glue for sustainability. This material is dimensionally stable, offering superior strength compared to traditional timber frames and has been rigorously structurally tested. Additionally, our precision manufacturing process produces only A-grade wood waste, which is fully recyclable into timber products such as paper, further reducing environmental impact.

Facit Chassis™

At the core of Facit Home is the Facit Chassis™—a highly agile multiproduct system that combines the superstructure with secondary carpentry, staircases, service channels, and more. By consolidating these elements into a single digital funnel, we achieve manufacturing efficiencies free from the usual grid constraints of modular construction.

50% Faster Delivery vs. Traditional Custom Homebuilding

Our streamlined approach cuts overall project time in half by eliminating the inefficiencies and delays of traditional builds. With a faster, more efficient process, you can move into your new home sooner — without ever compromising on quality.

1. Data-Driven Design

2. Single Point of Contact

3. Speed saves costs, beats inflation

Our chassis adapts to any form

Our flexible building system means you're never confined to a standard house type. We design each home to suit its unique plot and shape—no catalogue models, just architecture tailored entirely to you

Thermal Envelope exceeds passive house standards

Each Facit Home has a building envelope designed to conserve heat, reducing the amount of energy that needs to be generated to keep it warm. It has a high airtightness rating of up to 1.5 air changes per hour (lower is better). Standard builds are more like 5-10 which means losing precious heat.

 

Our passive approach to energy efficiency also depends on the use of solar gain to naturally heat the home in the winter. And solar shading and stack ventilation help combat overheating in the summer.

Superior strength compared to traditional timber frame

The Facit Chassis™ is a precision-engineered structural system, constructed from FSC-certified engineered spruce sheet and bonded with a bio-based glue for enhanced sustainability. Designed for dimensional stability and superior strength, it outperforms traditional timber frames and has undergone rigorous structural testing to BSI standards. This ensures reliability, durability, and consistent performance across every home we build.
