At Longview Homes, we are committed to building high-quality, sustainable homes that stand the test of time. As award-winning builders in Whakatāne, we specialise in new builds and renovations, offering a diverse range of house plans to suit every lifestyle. One of the key elements in our construction process is the foundation, and for that, we choose QPOD™ Subfloor Systems. This innovative solution not only enhances structural integrity but also aligns with our commitment to eco-friendly and cost-effective building practices.
The QPOD™ Advantage
QPOD™ Subfloor Systems revolutionise foundation technology by replacing traditional polystyrene pods with an environmentally responsible alternative. Manufactured in Hawke’s Bay from 100% recycled materials, these pods are fully recyclable, ensuring zero landfill waste. This makes them the preferred choice for homeowners and builders looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
Why We Choose QPOD™ for Our Foundations
- Environmentally Friendly
Unlike conventional polystyrene-based systems, QPOD™ eliminates plastic waste while promoting sustainable building practices. By choosing QPOD™, we help reduce environmental impact while maintaining structural excellence. - Cost-Effective Construction
By optimising material usage, QPOD™ significantly reduces the need for excess concrete and steel, leading to lower costs and more efficient installations. This means our clients benefit from a more affordable foundation without compromising on quality. - Faster and Cleaner Installation
The modular design of QPOD™ ensures a seamless, easy-to-install solution. Unlike polystyrene, which can create a messy worksite, QPOD™ is clean, organised, and easy to transport, making the installation process smooth and hassle-free. - Engineered for Strength and Performance
The QPOD™ system is designed to withstand New Zealand’s diverse soil conditions, offering both continuous raft solutions on stable ground and effective performance in challenging soil conditions. Its CodeMark™ certification ensures compliance with New Zealand building standards, giving homeowners peace of mind. - Space-Saving and Efficient Delivery
A major advantage of QPOD™ is its compact storage and transport efficiency. A 50m² QPOD™ system can be stacked neatly on a single pallet, minimising storage requirements and reducing transport emissions. In contrast, traditional polystyrene systems require multiple truckloads for the same area. - A Smarter Choice for the Future
By using QPOD™, we are helping shape the future of sustainable construction. This innovative system has empowered architects, engineers, contractors, and homeowners to make an eco-conscious foundation choice without sacrificing durability or affordability.
