The company promises to revolutionize the Minha Casa Minha Vida program by building houses in 48 hours. Using Light Wood Frame technology, the company has already started delivering the first units and plans to build more than 1.000 houses in a year.

Imagine if affordable housing in the Minha Casa Minha Vida program could be built in just 48 hours.

This promise, which seems to come out of a science fiction film, is the reality that a mining company wants to bring to thousands of Brazilians.

The impressive speed, innovative technology and practicality are some of the key points that can change the lives of many families.

Based in Lavras, in the south of Minas Gerais, Hauss Brasil has embarked on an ambitious project: to build more than 1.000 affordable homes in Minas Gerais within a year. And the best part? The first homes have already begun to be delivered.

But how is it possible to build a residence in such a short time? The secret lies in a revolutionary construction technology that uses prefabricated panels, eliminating the need for traditional bricks.

The revolution in construction: the technique that speeds up the process

Unlike conventional construction methods, which can take months or even years, Hauss Brasil has developed a system that uses composite panels made of wood and cement derivatives.

These panels are produced in a factory in Paranรก and transported to the assembly site, where the houses are assembled in just two days.

Hauss Brasil CEO Junior Bergamin explains that production is carried out on an industrial line, ensuring that each residence is identical to the other. โ€œIn a single day, we were able to assemble up to 12 houses in the factory,โ€ highlights Bergamin.

The technique used is known as Light Wood Frame, a system that, In addition to speeding up the process, it offers several advantages in terms of thermal and acoustic comfort.

โ€œEven in extreme temperatures, the houses maintain a comfortable internal environment, between 22ยบC and 23ยบC, which is a big difference compared to traditional buildings,โ€ explains Bergamin.

My Home My Life: how technology can transform the program

Despite being an innovative technology, the cost for private constructions with Light Wood Frame is still higher โ€“ between 30% and 40% more expensive than the traditional method.

However, when applied on a large scale, as in Minha Casa Minha Vida projects, this price difference becomes competitive. โ€œWhen we build from 50 units, we can break even on costs,โ€ says Bergamin.

Hauss Brasil's first project using this technology is located in Itamogi, in the south of Minas Gerais, where 150 houses are being built for R$130 each.

The company has also won bids in other cities in Minas Gerais, such as Ingaรญ and Dores do Indaiรก, and plans to expand its operations to more municipalities.

A solution to urban challenges

In addition to the speed of construction, the houses assembled by Hauss Brasil offer a solution to one of the main problems faced by the Minha Casa Minha Vida program: the location of the homes.

As construction is carried out outside the construction site, the houses can be distributed across different areas of the city, which facilitates integration with the existing urban infrastructure.

โ€œWe can distribute the houses throughout the city, avoiding the creation of segregated communities far from urban centers,โ€ defends Bergamin.

The future of construction: what to expect?

With an initial investment of R$40 million, Hauss Brasil is already planning the next steps to further expand its production capacity.

The company aims to develop solutions for constructing buildings of up to four floors and intends to reach maximum production capacity, of 4.000 homes per year, by 2025.

โ€œOur goal is to deliver over 1.000 homes by July next year and continue growing,โ€ projects the CEO.

However, city governmentsโ€™ adaptation to the new technology is still a challenge. Often, the notices restrict the materials that can be used, which can make it difficult to adopt Light Wood Frame.

We are working to overcome these barriers and show that our technology is viable and beneficial for cities,โ€ concludes Bergamin.

Do you believe that this technology can transform the affordable housing market in Brazil?
