Why KOFINAS House?

Best raw materials of the world market

Best raw materials of the world market

THE continuous production of the KOFINAS company, gives us the advantage of being able to import large quantities construction materials. With the mass import are achieved better prices and thus we are able to buy the "expensive" (for Greek construction data) construction materials which are of the highest quality in the world market.

Materials such as

Masonry timber, which is:

    Σουηδική ξυλεία

  • Swedish: which means it is very compact.
  • Pine: which means greater resistance to moisture.
  • Dryer: which means that the wood is cured for weeks and disinfected naturally and not chemically (like green wood), while the humidity reaches the ideal, for residential construction, level of 15-16%.
  • Ecological: which means that the wood does not contain chemical loads and that the policy of the Swedish Wood Industry contributes to the absorption of carbon dioxide.
  • Planned: which means that it has perfectly flat surfaces, which, in combination with the factory connections, achieve absolute assembly and zero joints in all the construction parts of the house.
  • Class C24: which means that it has very high mechanical strengths showing up to 80% a higher load-bearing capacity than ordinary construction timber.

The OSB armoring of masonry, which is:

    ξύλινη τοιχοποιία θωρακισμένη

  • Canadian, Factory LP: which means maximum mechanical strength and superior quality on a global level! It is no coincidence that this particular OSB is the first in global production and that in Greece it is imported for your homes by the KOFINAS company.
  • Waterproof: which means it acts as a moisture barrier for the home.

The Canexel lining of masonry, which is:

Επένδυση Ξύλινης Κατοικίας

the most sophisticated wood paneling system, from the world leader in the manufacture of composite wood products, LP, which chose the Kofinas company for its exclusive distribution in Greece and Cyprus. Is:

  • Waterproof and durable: Canexel liners are made from wood fibre, resin and wax and are therefore extremely stable and waterproof, with a 25 year guarantee.
  • Finished: meaning the liner is factory impregnated with your choice of color from the company's extensive color palette and won't peel or dull, which is why it comes with a 15-year warranty on the finish.

Completely factory built

Completely factory built

The Kofinas company manufactures the masonry entirely in the factory with the use of TORX spirals follows always and strictly the following production steps of the company:

Εξ ολοκλήρου εργοστασιακή κατασκευή

The factory construction ensures the perfect fit of the individual sections of each wall and the zero relaxation them in time.

The ready-made sections of the masonry work as monolithic bodies, as load-bearing walls that are subject to any oscillation. This is how it is ensured high seismic resistance and above all the robustness and durability of the Cofina construction.

Ability to design for the disabled

KOFINAS company is able to adapt any existing housing plan or design a new concept from scratch, in order to support the "design for everyone", ensuring the access of the disabled.

Your house is NOT built on the lot!

Your house is NOT built on the lot!

The Kofinas company leads the way, since the technical defects that were due to the on-site construction of the masonry on the plot, belong to the distant past.

Factory ready masonry

Μεταφορά και τοποθέτηση

The factory sections of the masonry are loaded on proprietary trucks and cranes, which are transferred ready to the plot and are agreed upon on the concrete platform. Assembly is done wall to wallin a minimum period of time.

Leveling with a laser rangefinder

The placement of the walls on the platform is done using a laser rangefinder, which angles and levels the walls horizontally and vertically with absolute accuracy.

Continuous scientific and experimental research

Continuous scientific and experimental research

ΚΟΦΙΝΑΣ ΕΜΠ

The Kofinas company does not stand only in the theoretical study, but goes even further and invests in experimental research in collaboration with National Technical University of Athens! In 2009, the response of the company's structural system against seismic action is checked with the use of seismic simulator of E.M.P.. The indisputable results confirm the durability and quality of our constructions.

In 2011 we go even further and a new experiment is carried out in three-story structure Cofinas, me equally impressive results!

In spite of her objective certification that the above studies offered us we continue today with new investigations

Seismic resistance

Seismic resistance

Αντισεισμικότητα

The residences of Kofina proven and not generalizing form fully anti-seismic constructions. The company, being sure of the sturdiness of its masonry, did not stay at a theoretical level but also tested certified her robustness through her scientific research.

The screw, which is robotically placed in all the construction parts of the house, the metal connecting plates, with which we "bind" the construction, the over-dimensioning carrier organism through engineering study and strengthening, at stress points, through a special static program, are technical advantages which they urged leading scientists to speak publicly for the seismic resistance of Kofina constructions.

Possibility of implementing Passive construction - Energy performance

Possibility of implementing Passive construction - Energy performance

The Kofinas company, as a member of the Hellenic Passive Building Institute, is able to implement full passive design structures. By implementing solutions ventilation and heat recovery in the company's existing leading building system, we are able to build homes that practically require zero costs for their cooling and heating.

Η εταιρεία Κοφινάς μέλος του Ελληνικού Ινστιτούτου Παθητικού Κτιρίου

It is obvious that the constructions of the Kofinas company exceed the requirements of the Greek Building Energy Performance Regulation (KENAK).


Ελληνικός κανονισμός ενεργειακής απόδοσης κτιρίων (ΚΕΝΑΚ)

KOFINAS construction, in addition to the maximum thermal insulation of its masonry with a thermal permeability coefficient of up to 0.09 W/m2K, can offer you plenty of options so that you can improve it to the maximum energy efficiency of your new home, which has not only an ecological impact, but also reduces costs of the household.
