MOASTEEL HOUSE
THE GREEN STEEL HOUSE
Philippe RIGOLOT
A concept of low-energy houses based on a patented solution of insulation between two steel plates, favourable to the development of sustainable housing and to the reduction of CO2 emissions from the construction sector.
THE BRILLIANT IDEA OF STEEL
Philippe RIGOLOT, inventor-engineer-entrepreneur based in the Reims region, has come up with the MOASTEEL HOUSE concept, houses and buildings that are not only energy efficient, but also very economical in terms of materials during the construction phase. This is the secret of these steel-framed houses, which are ten times lighter but just as strong as traditional houses.
Their easy and quick to build structure, with double insulation made from 93% recycled steel exterior walls, are suitable for all types of land. MOASTEEL houses, which can be built on existing foundations, consume less than 21 Kwh/M2 per year (about 200 € for 120m2). With their A rating in the energy performance diagnosis, they are less expensive than wooden houses and offer the best quality-price ratio of green houses. In Champagne-Ardenne, there are now about forty of these metal environmental champions, already awarded the Solar Impulse label and first prize in the Resilient Buildings Awards in the individual housing category.
“We are now working to develop this type of house on a larger scale. We dream of building a 4.0 factory to industrialize the system, digitize all the structures by introducing digitalization, from order taking to construction site completion.”
