Citra<\/span> develops, designs and builds homes and homesites using a unique construction technology that doesn’t rely on steel, bricks or concrete. The technology reduces CO2 emissions by 75% during construction and 100% during use, achieving net zero emissions for homes. Compared to traditional houses, construction costs are reduced by 20% and construction time by up to 80%.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How would you describe your solution in a few words?
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

Citra’s construction technology reduces construction-related CO2 emissions by 75% and utilisation-related emissions by 100% (net-zero houses). Compared to traditional houses of the same size, construction costs are reduced by 20% and construction time by up to 80%.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The patented technology combines an insulation core with a composite structure of fire-resistant ribs and sprayed-on hyper-strength plaster. Well-insulated, up to four-storey residential buildings can be constructed without steel, bricks or concrete.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The technology is made for mobile automation and the upcoming plastering robots, which will revolutionise conventional mass housing construction in the next 10-20 years.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"video","url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XkTZ5QT7i6w","image":{"ID":9302,"id":9302,"title":"Citra - 3 - eHomes - 5","filename":"Citra-3-eHomes-5.jpg","filesize":1967682,"url":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5.jpg","link":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/en\/nominierte\/resource-efficient-construction-technology\/citra-3-ehomes-5-2\/","alt":"","author":"2","description":"","caption":"","name":"citra-3-ehomes-5-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":9664,"date":"2024-03-12 08:46:35","modified":"2024-03-19 12:05:08","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2369,"height":1588,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-300x201.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":201,"medium_large":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-768x515.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":515,"large":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-800x800.jpg","large-width":800,"large-height":800,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-1536x1030.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1030,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-2048x1373.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1373,"bildname":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-1920x800.jpg","bildname-width":1920,"bildname-height":800,"youtube":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5.jpg","youtube-width":1611,"youtube-height":1080,"bildname2":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-1920x800.jpg","bildname2-width":1920,"bildname2-height":800,"headerimage-high":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5.jpg","headerimage-high-width":2369,"headerimage-high-height":1588,"teaser":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-3-eHomes-5-800x284.jpg","teaser-width":800,"teaser-height":284}}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

Who are your customers?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Customers are both end customers (B2C) and land developers (B2B). Currently active in South Africa; Switzerland and the USA are being developed, with other countries to follow. The focus is on affordable mass housing, supplemented by hotels, luxury homes and modular houses.<\/p>\n

Mineral ribs with EPS panels in between, plastered on both sides, create a fire-resistant composite structure. The roof has a waterproof coating and is fitted with PV panels. \u00a9 Citra<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are the environmental benefits of your solution?
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

Construction-related CO2 emissions are reduced by 75%, and utilisation-related emissions reduced by up to 100% (net-zero houses) if part of the roof includes PV-panels. The homes are very robust, hence require less maintenance and enjoy a longer lifespan. When broken down, most of the insulation material can be recycled.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"headerimage","title":"","subtitle":"","image":{"ID":9294,"id":9294,"title":"Citra Solution 1 - ePod Dragonstone","filename":"Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone.jpg","filesize":2784927,"url":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone.jpg","link":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/en\/nominierte\/resource-efficient-construction-technology\/citra-solution-1-epod-dragonstone-2\/","alt":"","author":"2","description":"","caption":"","name":"citra-solution-1-epod-dragonstone-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":9664,"date":"2024-03-12 08:42:08","modified":"2024-03-19 12:05:08","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2500,"height":1473,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-300x177.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":177,"medium_large":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-768x453.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":453,"large":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-800x800.jpg","large-width":800,"large-height":800,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-1536x905.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":905,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-2048x1207.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1207,"bildname":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-1920x800.jpg","bildname-width":1920,"bildname-height":800,"youtube":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone.jpg","youtube-width":1833,"youtube-height":1080,"bildname2":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-1920x800.jpg","bildname2-width":1920,"bildname2-height":800,"headerimage-high":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone.jpg","headerimage-high-width":2500,"headerimage-high-height":1473,"teaser":"https:\/\/greenbusinessaward.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Citra-Solution-1-ePod-Dragonstone-800x284.jpg","teaser-width":800,"teaser-height":284}},"video":false,"badge":false,"reduce_height":false,"message":{"icon":"new","text":"","sub_text":"","url":""},"image_gradient_overlay":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"
