Owner Builders

Considering building your own house? There’s nothing stopping you now.

STEKO® is ideal for those who want the satisfaction of building their own house and who are also handy with a hammer. Building with STEKO® reduces the complexity of construction by eliminating the need to measure and cut – it’s all been done for you. This also means that you won’t need expensive, specialized tools, as the wall modules are prefabricated, ready to be push fitted together.
 The whole family can even help, as the standard module weighs only 6.5kg, so it’s perfect for those restricted by heavy lifting. The simplicity and speed of construction with STEKO® makes building a sheer joy for do-it-yourself home builders.

Remote Communities

No more sourcing issues. Because STEKO® is a complete building system, each order will arrive at the prearranged site with all materials required for assembling your construction. This means that you don’t need to wait for numerous different components to arrive from regional centers. Once the STEKO® modules arrive, you will be able to have construction completed within a matter of days.

Environmentally Aware

Alternative building methods are steadily increasing in demand as many homeowners begin to realize that smart housing doesn’t necessarily need to be expensive or complex. Simple, natural materials, if utilized properly can result in comfortable, affordable construction. Using STEKO®, building a home that complies with sustainable building practices is easy. A STEKO® homeowner can enjoy STEKO®’s recognized capacity for improved energy efficiency, knowing that the reduction of waste during the building process, as well as the ease of recycling will leave you feeling good about your healthy new home. If you are looking to build a sustainable, low energy home then STEKO® is the right choice for you!

Commercial

No more support columns. STEKO® isn’t limited to building houses. The fast construction and affordable costs of STEKO® are ideal for businesses and factories. STEKO® can be built up to 10 story’s high without compromising any structural stability. All walls are load bearing meaning that there is a reduced need for pylons or other supports. This increases the versatility as it is possible to have large open areas, which can later have partition walls added if required.

Schools

Create a healthy learning environment. ​Neurologists have found a link between healthy brain development in children and the use of natural building materials in their surrounding environment. Timber as opposed to steel, concrete or other man-made products produces a healthy, welcoming environment for students. STEKO® blocks are also fast to assemble and are reusable, which makes them ideal for the construction of portable classrooms.

Planning Retirees

STEKO®’s load bearing capabilities mean that you can live today knowing that you’ve already planned for tomorrow. All STEKO® walls are load bearing. This means that if particular walls require handrails for wheelchair or elderly access then they can be easily installed when required. Installation can be done without the need for reconstructing the wall to find noggins and support studs. Adding support rails as an afterthought in a traditional timber framed house can be very costly and time consuming. Due to the load bearing walls, STEKO® is ideal for all buildings that may require wheelchair accessibility. Plan today, so that you can be prepared for tomorrow.
