In the high-tech approach known as panelized
construction, pre-engineered building materials are produced for a new
home in factory - controlled conditions, then shipped complete to the
building site for final construction. A panelized home can be weather
tight in just a few days.
The pre-building roof and floor trusses in our factory is the most common
application of our panelized construction system. In keeping with our
tradition of excellence and always trying to be on the cutting edge of
the home construction industry, we recently entered into a new area, that
of complete home panelization. Our intention as always is to provide our
customers a high quality alternative and to take the lead in what the
National Association of Home Builders in the United States has reported
as the fastest growing segment of residential new construction. With the
assistance of cutting-edge automation and in factory-perfect conditions,
complete exterior and interior wall panels, trusses, decking, etc. are
loaded onto trucks and delivered to the project site. Before arriving
at the job site the materials are marked with an easy to follow coding
system for easy and quick assembly at the job site.
There are many reasons for fast growing success of this new alternative,
but they tend to fall into the following areas.
- labor savings
- reduced construction time frames
- material savings
- consistent quality
- marketing advantages
- design flexibility.

Our ability to use less specialized labor in framing the home. Depending
on size of the home, Somundy is able to save at least€10 per sq meter.
Administrative staff needs are reduced since we are only dealing with
one major supplier. Somundy has figured out how everything goes together
and components are marked for ease of assembly on the job site. When using
panelization, workers do not waste time assembling individual components
to frame a building.
Steel is purchased from a manufacturer, which results in a direct savings
to the customer.
Job site waste and human error are essentially eliminated.
Reduced waste is environmentally friendly.
Due to less wastage and scrap, associated costs are greatly reduced for
clean up.
Somundy is able to offer better prices since material is bought in bulk,
coupled with the panel manufacturers' tight costs controls.
No increase & often a decrease in trade contractors bids (due to pre-punched
studs and open web floor joists).
With the computer aided manufacturing process, all of the bugs have been
worked out prior to on-site construction.
Home buyers are able to move into their new home more quickly.
Completion and move-in dates easier to predict and meet.
Reduce costs associated with construction loan interest.
Cost are further reduced by eliminating delays caused by labor shortages,
scheduling problems or labor that simply doesn't show up.
Eliminate delays caused by material shortages, late deliveries or wrong
items shipped.
Eliminate poor quality of lumber, by not having to sort.
Construction becomes more feasible year-round (particularly for colder
& inclimate climates).
Our highly-automated factory controlled conditions results in panel construction
that are consistent with measurable quality controls in the manufacturing
facility.
With framers working indoors, under factory controlled conditions, they
have an easier time of getting measurements exact.
Greatly reduces weather-related problems for materials exposed to elements
prior to home being closed in.
May achieve a tighter fit with better insulation/blockage of air infiltration.
