DISCOVER THE 10 REASONS OF WHY YOU NEED TO BUILD LIKE NEVER BEFORE WITH BESTEEL

 

1. To build with steel is at least 4x times lighter than any traditional building method

Steel is the lightest material that you can find. Due to its lightweight, it reduces the impact on the foundation by at least 30% compared to traditional building methods, and it has the best construction-to-weight ratio in the sector. The lightweight of steel, makes it tremendously efficient for elevations. 

 

2. To build with steel is 50% faster than all traditional building methods 

Build with an efficient and streamlined assembly on-site, thanks to our prefabricated components, our team of expects and our precise engineering. It also reduces the need for extensive on-site labour. No delays on site thanks to offsite construction: all the components are produced and assembled in an controlled environment. The production process is not affected by any weather conditions therefore results in an uninterrupted building process. 

No delays on site thanks to the technology: the site is scanned, the products are calculated to avoid any waste or errors.

 

3. Steel frame is the strongest solution for your project

Perfectly suitable for all project types, from the smallest to the most ambitious ones, steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of all building methods. Despite its lightness, it does not lose in strength! 

Thanks to its high mechanical strength, light weight, flexibility, corrosion resistance and compliance with construction standards specific to hurricane zones, this contributes significantly to minimising damage caused by high winds.

 

4. Building with steel frame improves the safety and the performance of the building

Steel frame is the perfect insulation ally. When combined with the proper insulating material, it gives exceptional fire resistance results and high-quality thermal insulation, as well as high soundproofing capabilities. Steel frame creates comfortable and energy-efficient living spaces!
