Why Straw Bale?
Straw bale wall systems are 3x more energy-efficient than conventional framing, saving 75% in energy costs! Straw bale houses 3x more fire-resistant than conventional homes, which is becoming more relevant as the risk of wildfires grows.
They perform much better in earthquakes, are more resistant to pests/vermin, have much healthier indoor air quality, can save the owner a lot of money, and when built well, have longevity that outweighs conventional housing. Straw bale construction is officially part of the national residential code. Â Find much more HERE.
