Wyckham Blackwell expands into German-style ultra prefabrication

24 September 2013


Wyckham Blackwell’s timber frame business is taking a lead from Germany and Austria by expanding into fully-finished wall sections complete with services.

The WB Timber Innovations Ltd operation at Solihull says the launch of WB Haus will meet the needs of a specialised market.

The move further cements the company's relationship with Wolf Systems, which designs and manufactures the fully-finished Wolf Haus product in Germany and Austria.

The new Haus range will take prefabrication levels to a different level - with wall sections featuring windows and doors, exterior rendering, interior drylining and even plumbing and electrical services installed.

Wyckham Blackwell launched the WB Timber Innovations business in 2012 to service the self-build sector.

More on this will appear in the Timber Frame special feature in the next issue of TTJ.
