Mass Engineered Timber (MET)

Mass Engineered Timber (MET)

The BOXA Building system is developed around innovative next-generation building materials and systems that substantially reduce embodied carbon, environmental impacts and life-cycle costs relative to conventional construction methods. 

Fundamental to the BOXA building system is the use of mass engineered timber (MET) components, specifically cross-laminated timber (CLT) wall and floor panels that eliminate the use of masonry & concrete, and glue-laminated timber (GLT) structural beams that eliminate the use of steel. 

BENEFITS OF CLT

Minimal footprint

Minimal footprint

Designed for sensitive and remote environments, BOXA buildings leave a light footprint — both ecologically and physically. Our systems require minimal site disturbance, with reduced foundation needs and low-impact materials. Every BOXA unit is designed to tread lightly, aligning with off-grid living, conservation goals, or eco-conscious developments.

Durable construction

Durable Construction

BOXA buildings are made to endure. From harsh weather to rugged terrain, our engineered timber systems are built for long-term strength and stability. With high-performance finishes, moisture protection, and robust structural integrity, BOXA structures deliver lasting value and reliability in even the most challenging environments.

Speed meets precision with BOXA. Our prefabricated timber systems are delivered ready for rapid on-site assembly — often within just a few days. This streamlined approach reduces disruption, labour time, and logistics, making it the ideal solution for remote locations or time-sensitive projects.

FAQ

The Factory

The team

What is a prefabricated timber building?
A prefabricated (prefab) building is made off-site in standardised sections and assembled on-site.

  • Faster construction
  • Reduced waste
  • Lower labor costs
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Better quality control

What type of foundation is required?
BOXA units use a rapid-install, load-bearing galvanised steel micro-pile system supporting a treated engineered timber subframe.

  • Minimal environmental impact: no digging, cement, water, or curing time
  • Suitable for most soil types; chemical anchors for rocky ground
  • Additional lateral micro-piles and stainless steel bracing ensure stability for elevated floors (>1 m)

Is there a warranty?

  • Conditional 10-year structural warranty
  • Recommended: Service Level Agreement (SLA) with Sustainabuild for ongoing maintenance.

Our Germiston facility is the heart of BOXA’s precision and innovation. Equipped with advanced machinery and a 7-axis robotic arm, the factory enables highly accurate, repeatable production of Mass Engineered Timber components.

This cutting-edge automation ensures exceptional quality, efficiency, and scalability — allowing us to deliver rapid-build systems with unmatched consistency and speed.

Behind every BOXA building is a dedicated team of skilled artisans, installation specialists, project managers, and support staff who bring each project to life.

From precision joinery on the factory floor to seamless on-site assembly in remote locations, our team ensures every step runs smoothly.

Backed by careful planning and hands-on expertise, BOXA buildings are delivered and installed with care, speed, and professionalism — every time.
