Engineered & tested panels.
Manufactured to specification, with consistent density and dimensions for predictable performance.
For Engineers
Documented performance for a natural wall system.
Tested, engineered straw-and-timber panels - with the data you need to check and sign off with confidence.
The Problems
What gets in the way today
- 01
Natural materials lack documented performance.
You need numbers - structural, thermal, acoustic, fire - not just sustainability stories.
- 02
Site-built straw is hard to certify.
Variability in loose-bale construction makes engineering sign-off slow and risky.
- 03
Bushfire performance must be proven.
Generic claims don’t cut it — you need test reports that are relevant to the NCC.
- 04
Detailing is often left to interpretation.
Junctions, bracing, openings, fixings - without recorded engineered details, every project should be inspected for compliance
