In association with Sustainable Villages Ltd, Maxam is providing development consultancy services for the design and development of steel framed modular housing produced in partnership with The Shepherd Group (Portakabin, Yorkon etc). The new homes are capable of delivering ‘Code for Sustainable Homes’ level 6 (zero carbon, very low energy) at the same cost as conventional mass housing construction. Two of the house prototypes have been built in York.
