About this Event
Agile Homes’ Tam is a unique, prefabricated, rapid-response housing solution that enables the delivery of high-quality, low-carbon affordable modular homes in new and innovative ways.
Their homes are made of super-insulated straw and timber panels, made off-site then transported and assembled on-site to make a home. The walls, floors and roof can take as little as a day to erect and can be ready to occupy in 6 weeks. Their flat-pack panels mean that they can build homes in exciting and unusual locations, unlocking value and delivering much-needed new homes – quickly. Like conventional housing, a Tam also has a minimum 60-year Design Life and meets National Space Standards, Building Regulations and the Future Homes Standard. Agile Homes lift people back ontoSMEs the Property Ladder by rebuilding its missing rungs.
