New Project

Organic Farm/ Pre-Engineered Buildings

· May 3, 2021 ·

EcoSteel is providing three support buildings to a new Organic Farm in Michigan on over 400 Acres. We will be housing the Corporate Headquarters, along with a production building for packing the fruits and vegetables. There is a separate kids / daycare building with natural daylighting with our translucent insulated panels.

The campus consists of approximately 20,000SF of Pre-Engineered steel structures and insulated metal panels for the roof and walls. EcoSteel leverages Revit 3D modeling and BIM ( Building Information Management) technology into an all steel/ non-combustible construction method.

3030 home

· May 2, 2021 ·

This prefabricated industrial style home is the personal home of the project’s general contractor! One of the main objectives of this build was to maximize the interior space on the 30’ by 30’ site footprint. Architect Greg LaVardera designed the home with an open-spaced concept in mind to take advantage of the space and the industrialized style of the home. Using our prefabricated steel engineering process, this project managed to create 2,000 square feet of usable living space and 200 square feet of balcony and porch space!

One factor that helped the home to feel more expansive and open was to maintain some unfinished industrialized elements such as the exposed steel beams. This was not only an aesthetic choice, but a practical one as the space can accommodate flexibility in its usage. Design touches of natural materials, textures, and colors added softness and warmth to the home. A perfect balance of industrial and natural elements, such as the open web bar joists coupled with the reclaimed barn wood floor substrate, contribute to this home’s unique character.

In addition to the attractive design of this custom prefabricated steel home, this project boasts an energy-efficient thermal envelope due to EcoSteel’s insulated panels, R32 and R24 pre-insulated steel roof and wall panels. These insulated panels help to create an airtight structure that retains heat and cooling much more easily, therefore reducing costs associated with energy consumption and minimizing the home’s carbon footprint. When all was said and done, this home exceeded energy code by 60% simply by using EcoSteel.

OTree MicroHome ADU Prototype

· March 16, 2021 ·

EcoSteel is launching a new MicroHome division that will focus on the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) solutions that are sweeping the nation. Our goal is to bring affordable housing to the market that is also Fire Resistant, Energy Efficient and fast to build.

We will be offering solutions from 400-1,200SF across California, and then to Chicago and beyond.

Stay tuned for updates, here is our first prototype going up now.

MicroHome ADU

· March 9, 2021 ·

1,200 SF ADU/ One Bedroom + 2 Car Garage and custom modern Auto Barn for 12 cars with lifts. Sitting on a prime view property in Santa Rosa, this MicroHome will be an example of custom steel and glass modern living. The Pre-Engineered Steel Building System provides unmatched fire safety with Non-Combustible steel construction. This property was destroyed in a wildfire and the owners want to build a steel home in place of the lumber construction that burned.

Fleetwood doors and windows provide an unique experience with walls of glass and moment frame steel engineering for openings on all four sides. Unlike traditional lumber framing with small windows and shear walls, our steel buildings have unlimited customization and open rooms with walls of glass.

Modern Prefab Development

· March 3, 2021 ·

EcoSteel has been selected to provide solutions for a coastal development project in an undisclosed location along the coast in Southern California. Modern steel and glass designs are created for a wildfire zone that borders open space. The non-combustible steel roof and wall panels create a safer alternative to asphalt or cedar shingles with regard to flame spread.

Fleetwood Glass windows will provide floor to ceiling views of the coastal foothills and sunsets to Catalina Island.
