Since our inception , we wanted to ensure that everything we manufacture will have an indefinite lifecycle
“ Using technology to enable manufacturing for offsite construction was pretty much unheard of 20 years ago . As some of the first adopters and developers , we ’ ve been able to excel and there still isn ’ t anyone out there who does exactly what we do ,” says Benjamin .
The DIRTT construction system combines innovative processes and technologies , allowing solutions to be designed , organized , configured , and manufactured offsite , with final assembly completed at the job site . “ It ’ s a unique model ,” Benjamin continues . “ Our software enables us to manufacture bespoke interiors in a range of verticals , from healthcare and life sciences to workplace and education , and deliver them through our construction partners . In a traditional model , the manufacturer does most of the designing , engineering , and building and then sends the product to a distributor who typically then distributes the structure to a subcontractor or third party for installation . Our construction partners , however , utilize our software to start the design , procurement , and proposal processes ahead of submission . Once files are submitted and the order is placed through our software , the custom design request can be manufactured within as little as ten days . The construction partner will then complete the installation .”

Sustainability is at the core of DIRTT ’ s philosophy . Leveraging industrialized construction and Lean manufacturing , DIRTT ’ s interiors use less raw material and generate less waste . But it goes beyond that ; it encompasses behavioral sustainability , as DIRTT interiors can be adapted and evolved over time . Utilizing a construction system with a universal interface empowers the interchangeability of parts and maximizes the life cycle of products .
