BANGALORE:
Vaishnavi Group has joined hands with Katerra, a technology-driven offsite construction company to introduce next generation housing construction technology. With the implementation of integrated offsite manufacturing technology and the concept of DFMA (Design for manufacturing and assembly), Vaishnavi Group can now ensure:
50% faster completion time
90% factory-finished elements including all in-built mechanical, electrical and plumbing services
100% offsite manufactured bathroom pods dropped onsite for easy plug and play
Close to 40% reduction in pollution through minimised vehicular movement
Close to 29% material conservation, water saved through steam curing, design efficiency and factory planning to reduce material usage at construction site.
Speaking on the launch of Vaishnavi Serene, C.N. Govindaraju, Managing Director, Vaishnavi Group, said, “In keeping with our aim of ‘Building from the Heart’, we have created homes that give people the best use of their living spaces. For instance, our immaculate planning will ensure that a 1,118 sqft 3-bedroom home at Vaishnavi Serene gives the home owner the experience and efficiency of a 1400 sqft home! The quality of construction is unparalleled thanks to the offsite manufacturing technology that is being used. This ensures that the handover of homes will not just be on or ahead of schedule but will be delivered with an impeccable build quality. Further, the impact on the environment is minimal across the board. With Yelahanka being an upcoming growth hub, the infrastructural development currently underway will only serve to make this project a winning proposition for a home buyer”.
Speaking on the collaboration with Vaishnavi as well as the introduction of this next-generation construction technology in a residential real estate project in India for the very first time, Nejeeb Khan, the Head – Design & Brand Strategy, Asia & Middle East, Katerra, said, “Our teams have worked to design, engineer, factory-manufacture and assemble high-quality housing, built offsite, eliminating many of the common problems associated with traditional on-site construction. Designed and manufactured with precision, we believe in delivering quality homes through technology, ultimately increasing the speed and quality of delivery, while simultaneously being more sustainable by reducing waste, optimised resource utilisation, and minimal environmental disruption. A prime example of this technology is in action at Vaishnavi Serene.”
Vaishnavi Serene will showcase Katerra’s unique technology. This project is adjacent to the lush green CRPF Campus in Yelahanka. The project comprises 896 apartments in configurations of 1, 2 & 3-bedroom apartments ranging in size from 635 sq.ft to 1118 sq.ft. It offers potential home owners several firsts in terms of features – from being the first residential project in Bangalore to be built with global off-site technology, to being the first community to offer homes with a new set of specifications and smart sizes to highly enhanced space efficiency along with Vaastu compliance.
