Stewart Milne Timber Systems - Residential Project
Stewart Milne Timber Systems’ innovative new build system, Sigma II, a fabric-first solution to create mass market Code Level Four homes, has been used to complete a development in Snettisham, Norfolk. The project consisted of 15 units of two-storey houses for Youngs Homes on behalf of Flagship Housing Developments. The aim was to achieve first-class energy saving insulation and air tightness, as well as cost-efficiencies in terms of offsite prefabrication. The solution they were looking for also had to be sufficiently adaptable to suit a variety of external finishes, window detailing and integration of services.
