Return on Capital

• Dragonboard^® speed on site will turn your development to cash more quickly, vital in today’s working capital hungry, high density developments.

• As an example, a recent study by the BRE of a housing development in Cambridgeshire, demonstrated that traditional construction required 40% more man hours than the Dragonboard ^® system.
• Perhaps even more significantly you will also see much more productive use of increasingly scarce management and design overload.

• With greater certainty over build programmes, a precision engineered system and less surprises with materials, you will improve cost certainty.

Fewer Defects

• Dragonboard® clients have found that structures that have been built using the Dragonboard^® system have had far fewer defects compared to other methods of construction.
• The findings are based on analysis of the post completion defect liability period.
