1. True zero carbon—more than a promise
The Equinox-System™ is Hungary’s first construction methodology designed to quantify and minimise a building’s carbon footprint across its entire life cycle.
From early-stage design and material selection, through rapid prefabricated construction, to operation and eventual deconstruction—every stage is comprehensively addressed.
As a result, your home achieves and maintains genuine carbon neutrality, not only during its operation but throughout its full lifespan.
2. A resilient and future-proof investment—without the risk of obsolescence
The Equinox-System™ delivers an energy-efficient, carbon-neutral home that fully complies with the EU Taxonomy, the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD 2024/1275), and the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED 2023/1791).
These regulations stipulate that from 2030 all new buildings must achieve zero emissions, with public buildings already required to do so by 2028.
This is particularly critical in today’s property market, where the phenomenon of “stranded assets” is becoming increasingly evident: the value of inefficient homes is declining rapidly, while sustainable “green homes” maintain their value, command premiums, and benefit from rising demand.
Global market data reinforces this trend. Sustainable buildings consistently achieve higher sales prices, stronger rental yields, and better occupancy rates. In the United States, the so-called “energy transition risk” has emerged, meaning that owners who fail to modernise their properties to meet new energy standards face significant value loss as climate regulations tighten.
The numbers speak for themselves:
- Each step up in energy performance class can generate a 1–3% price premium.
- International studies show that energy-efficient homes sell for 16–40% higher values.
- Energy savings alone deliver an average 7% annual cost reduction.
By choosing the Equinox-System™, you are not only investing in an innovative, sustainable home but also in a resilient asset that safeguards long-term value, ensures low operating costs, and remains secure against the risk of obsolescence.
3. Fast, clean, and precise construction
At the core of the Equinox-System™ lies prefabrication.
Its primary structural material is CLT (cross-laminated timber)—solid wooden panels created by gluing multiple layers of timber. This process results in a material that is exceptionally strong, dimensionally stable, and durable, while remaining natural and sustainable.
With this advanced technology, construction can be completed 30–60% faster, allowing your home to be built within just a few weeks.
Industrial precision ensures that the building process is cleaner, less wasteful, and far more predictable than traditional methods.
The benefits go beyond sustainability: you gain clear timelines, reduced risks, and the assurance of a flawless, future-proof family home.
4. Healthy and comfortable living—for your family’s well-being
Equinox-System™ homes are built from natural materials—such as wood and cellulose— that are not only sustainable but also create a healthier indoor environment.
Carefully designed spaces ensure abundant natural daylight, fresh air, and excellent acoustics, making your home not only energy-efficient but also a place that enhances your family’s everyday quality of life.
This is a level of comfort that traditional construction methods rarely achieve.
A home like this must be experienced with all the senses—visit us anytime for a LOOK & FEEL experience!
