Natural disasters are going to happen – and it seems like some of them are occurring with increasing frequency (wild fires, etc.). It’s good that INNOVATION in the building products industry continues, and Eco-Panels is helping to lead the way. Meet the EPIC Block, capable of providing you with a durable concrete wall that will actually FLEX in a seismic event and NOT SHATTER and collapse in a hundred pieces. R40 insulation, fire resistant, DIY capable assembly not requiring skilled labor, cement/mortar or rebar and grout. Capable of multi-story construction.

After a large disaster – there are never enough builders to rebuild (heck, there were not enough builders BEFORE the disaster). What if you could rebuild your own home? Aided by your neighbors, friends and family – that would be an amazing and bonding event. And it’s entirely possible – in fact we’ve already enabled it to happen (with our panels, but that’s another story) . 😉

At Eco-Panels we are creating innovative building products that allow almost anyone to build a home of almost any design they like. When skilled labor becomes less of an issue, housing affordability can increase dramatically. And when homes are built stronger and significantly more energy efficient to begin with, families and entire communities can be more resilient in those unexpected hard times (whether financial or natural disaster).
