Housing & Residential

Programme risk lives between trades.

Housing delivery is constrained by sequencing, weather exposure, site labour and envelope performance. THOM BEE is a lightweight, modular engineered wall system designed to collapse those interfaces into one flat-packed, mechanically assembled envelope.

Illustrative THOM residential application
Residential
A different envelope model for repeatable housing delivery.
Target c. R50 → up to R110
Thermal design range
Basic to 65 mm high-performance targets; whole-panel validation pending
Working c. 20–25 kg/m²
Complete wall assembly
Subject to final validated production specification
Integrated envelope
Combines multiple wall functions
A single engineered product platform
Residential delivery

Repeat the product, not the coordination problem.

The housing proposition is built around programme, logistics, repeatability and a controlled envelope specification.

01

The housing problem

Every additional interface adds programme and coordination risk.

01
Multi-trade sequencing
Traditional wall construction can require multiple specialist activities to be coordinated across the same envelope.
02
Wet-process dependency
Weather windows, curing and site conditions can add uncertainty to programme planning.
03
Labour dependency
A fragmented wall build increases reliance on trade availability and coordination.
04
Performance assembled from parts
The final envelope outcome depends on multiple products, interfaces and installation steps working together.
02

Where THOM helps

Simplify the wall into one controlled product.

01
Modular mechanical assembly
Reduces wet-process dependency and makes the wall a controlled installation package.
02
Scalable thermal specification
Basic and 65 mm high-performance configurations address different thermal targets on the same platform.
03
Lightweight logistics
The complete-wall design range supports standard handling and flat-pack delivery strategies.
04
Repeatable specification
A controlled product platform supports consistent specification across repeated unit types and developments.
03

What matters to a developer

Programme, cost, repeatability and performance.

01
Programme
A more integrated envelope model reduces coordination burden and simplifies the critical path.
02
Envelope economics
Use THOM’s live installed-cost comparison rather than a static brochure claim.
03
Repeatability
A controlled product platform supports consistent specification across repeated unit types.
04
Future-ready performance
Thermal performance well beyond current Part L and Future Homes Standard thresholds, on a design-target basis.

Performance figures are design targets; accredited certification testing is underway. Installation productivity and final thermal performance are confirmed against the controlled product version and project-specific assessment.
