Circular economy
We use renewable natural resources, mitigate waste, and design products to be reused over and over again.
Flexi Panels are designed for disassembly. They can be disassembled to be redeployed and reused for a new home, or each Panel can be completely deconstructed and sustainably recycled.

Non-renewables
We have reduced and mitigated a large amount of non-renewable materials in our builds. Where these materials are necessary, we have done our best to specify those that are durable and long lasting. Where possible, non-renewables such as steel roofing iron, uPVC joinery, glass and even concrete in some situations can be reused or recycled so as not to contribute to construction waste.
Membranes by Pro Clima
Flexi uses Pro Clima products throught our entire panel assembly, from external weather resistive barriers, vapour control and airtightness layers to flashing tapes and more. See more on our Panel System page.
What Pro Clima have to say about the Flexi Panel System.
“Flexi offers architects the best process to achieve the goal of a quality building, with all aspects of the assembly really well sorted, details incorporating best practice cavity construction for roof and wall, monolithic membranes, Low timber fraction, California corners and no noggs in the structural frame for best assembly R-value and minimal thermal bridging, bracing with ply sarking, wool insulation, dedicated internal airtightness and moisture management with service cavity continuously insulated past the corners and internal to external wall intersections minimising thermal bridging.
The diffusion open wall and roof panel system has great spans and can be pre clad with windows installed so the structure is weathertight, airtight, lockup in a matter of days.
Combining high performance components, recessed black UPVC joinery, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, architectural cladding and interior lining options, all implemented with the cost control, efficiency and speedy erection advantages of offsite construction makes Flexi the hottest product/brand IMO and you have the ability to optimise for repetition or a one off bespoke build. We are stoked to be part of the overall value when you begin your collaborative relationship with Flexi.”
