Designing and building the high performing home of your dreams is an emotional and expensive undertaking.
As your design evolves, the number of decisions about building layout and material choices can be overwhelming … particularly as you struggle to remain within budget. Don’t let “cost conscious” decisions come at the expense of realizing the levels of comfort, energy efficiency and sustainability that were always part of the dream. Instead, choose to Build SMART.
We’ll show you how to save money while keeping your dream alive. Build SMART shifts the challenge of constructing a truly high performing building envelope away from congested building sites and into our factories with greater control over material quality and the building process.
Our process gives truly high-performance builders – challenged to staff their projects with skilled labor – a huge boost in productivity, producing standardized components of the structure in our factory … you then assemble them on site. Working together, we dramatically reduce your construction cycle time and deliver higher performing, occupied structures sooner..
WE ARE BUILDING THE FUTURE…
In 2019, Build SMART became an official corporate signer of the Kansas Climate + Health Declaration, an initiative to “increase awareness of the impacts of climate change on public health, to increase civic engagement on climate action in Kansas, and to advance policies that build community resilience and safeguard the future of our state.” Enduring and resilient buildings should be the rule to guide our decisions about the built environment.
By focusing on climate and health goals, Build SMART aims to contribute to a sustainable future by creating energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and healthier buildings. We strive to push the boundaries of innovation in the construction industry while ensuring a positive impact on both the planet and the well-being of occupants.
OUR VALUES
CLIMATE GOALS
Build SMART recognizes the urgent need to address climate change and reduce the environmental impact of the construction industry. We have set the following climate goals:
a. Energy Efficiency: Build SMART aims to create energy-efficient buildings that minimize energy consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our building systems incorporate advanced insulation, airtightness, and other energy-saving features to enhance thermal performance and optimize energy efficiency.
b. Carbon Footprint Reduction: The company is dedicated to reducing carbon emissions associated with construction. By utilizing sustainable manufacturing processes, optimizing material usage, and promoting recycling and waste reduction, we strive to minimize our carbon footprint throughout the product life cycle.
c. Renewable Energy Integration: Build SMART encourages the integration of renewable energy sources in our building systems. We support the incorporation of solar panels, wind turbines, and other clean energy technologies to help buildings generate their own sustainable energy and reduce dependency on non-renewable sources.
d. Sustainable Material Selection: Build SMART prioritizes the use of sustainable and environmentally friendly materials in our building components. This includes sourcing materials with low embodied carbon, utilizing recycled content, and selecting products from suppliers committed to sustainable practices.
HEalth Goals
Build SMART is dedicated to promoting occupant health and well-being through their building systems. We focus on the following health-related goals:
a. Indoor Air Quality: Build SMART’s building systems prioritize excellent indoor air quality by incorporating ventilation systems that ensure fresh air circulation and filtration. This helps remove pollutants, allergens, virus’ , pathogens and other harmful particles, creating healthier indoor environments.
b. Mold and Moisture Prevention: The company’s building components are designed to resist mold growth and prevent moisture accumulation. By utilizing materials with moisture-resistant properties and employing proper moisture, vapor and air infiltration prevention installation techniques, we aim to create healthier and safer living and working spaces.
c. Acoustic Comfort: Build SMART recognizes the importance of acoustic comfort in promoting well-being. Our building systems incorporate sound insulation and noise reduction features to create quieter and more peaceful indoor environments, enhancing occupant comfort.
d. Sustainable and Non-Toxic Materials: Build SMART prioritizes the use of sustainable, non-toxic materials in all of our building components. This ensures that the materials do not emit harmful chemicals or contribute to indoor air pollution, promoting a healthier living and working environment.
