With innovative technologies, Hauss Brasil delivers complete homes in record time, reducing water consumption by 95% and eliminating waste, while it has already won six Minha Casa, Minha Vida public notices and plans to manufacture up to 4 homes per year.
Your home ready in just 48 hours. A reality made possible by the Minas Gerais startup Hauss Brasil. In a scenario where the housing deficit in Brazil reaches 6 million homes, this innovative company is showing that construction can be fast, sustainable and efficient. Founded in 2024, Hauss has already earned an impressive R$120 million in its first year of operation.
But how did she achieve this feat? The secret lies in the combination of cutting-edge technology and a business model aimed at meeting specific housing demands.
How Hauss Brasil came about
Hauss was born from the joint effort of four entrepreneurs: Junior Bergamin, Paulo Curió, Jonatas Resende and Gilberto Bergamin. With experience in engineering, law and public management, they created a govtech, not a conventional construction company, to address one of the country's biggest challenges: the lack of affordable and quality housing.

Right from the start, Hauss won six bids for the Minha Casa, Minha Vida program, focusing on small towns and families with incomes starting at one minimum wage. The first housing complex, in Itamogi (MG), with 150 homes, was an initial milestone, showing that it is possible to transform housing construction in Brazil.
How Hauss transforms construction in Brazil
Using methods such as Light Steel Frame and Light Wood Frame, the houses are prefabricated in Curitiba and assembled on site in just two days. This impressive speed is only possible thanks to highly precise processes., similar to those of an automotive assembly line.
In addition to agility, sustainability is a highlight. Hauss homes consume 95% less water and produce almost no waste, drastically reducing environmental impacts compared to traditional constructions.
Benefits for small towns and low-income families
The startup serves regions where large construction companies do not operate due to lack of scale, bringing decent housing to forgotten communities. Thus, Hauss not only builds houses, but also creates opportunities and improves quality of life.
Thanks to advanced insulation, the homes maintain a pleasant temperature of 22°C, even in extreme climates. The acoustic insulation is twice as good as Brazilian standards, providing extra comfort to residents.
Challenges and future of industrialized construction in Brazil
Although the techniques used are fast and sustainable, they still face cultural resistance. Many Brazilians associate traditional construction, with concrete and mortar, with quality. This paradigm is slowly changing, but the process is still challenging.
After being acquired by the logistics group Expresso Nepomuceno, Hauss plans to expand its operations to São Paulo and open a new factory in the Southeast. With the capacity to produce 4 homes per year, the startup is focused on growing in a sustainable and responsible way.
I loved the project, I want to know more
The house project seems interesting in a country with so many problems, but they didn't say how much the incomplete material costs.
I would like to have more information. How to proceed. Like size etc.
