Benefits of Blu’s Folding Technology
One of things that is so cool about Blu homes is that our frames are built with an innovative wood/steel hybrid, which allows us construct the entire home in our factory, fold the structure, affordably transport it to the site, and then quickly unfold it on site as a complete house, unlike most factory-built homes that ship separate modules that need to be pieced together.
Blu’sĀ folding is an incredibly spectacular process to watch. Our customers often ask us what makes folding so beneficial. Here is our top ten list of the benefits of folding:
- Blu homes are easier and more affordable to ship because the homes fold to as small as 8 feet wide, minimizing special permitting and extra costs to transport.
- Blu homes are larger than any other modular building because they can unfold as large as 20 feet wide.
- Folding also creates higher ceilings, giving Blu homes a larger and more spacious feel.
- Blu site work is fast because the home is already assembled.
- The quality of our site work is better because the unfolding process is so fast that we are able send Blu’s skilled and highly trained staff to each installation, rather than relying on general contractors who are unfamiliar with the house.
- The small size of our shipments allows us to deliver via narrow roads and tough-to-reach sites.
- Our relatively small shipments (typically one truck instead of multiple vehicles) reduces shipping pollution.
- Factory construction creates less waste.
- Our steel frames not only makes Blu’s buildings and homes more durable for folding & shipping, but also makes them sturdier for tough weather conditions – earthquake areas, flood zones, high wind areas.
- Folding allows us to deliver our homes affordably, anywhere!
