Building on the benefits of steel frame construction with Intrastack Low Rise Housing
We often discuss the benefits of light gauge steel frame (LGSF) construction, its speed, adaptability and how it provides cost-effective buildings across various storey heights. And now, Intrastack has introduced a new offering, utilising all these benefits to create a system that is designed specifically to service the low-rise housing market.
Here, we delve into the Intrastack Low Rise Housing solution (ILRH) and the benefits it can provide to your next project.
An accurate and long-lasting solution
Our ILRH solution is an innovative system, which can be used for social and affordable housing, assisted living facilities, care homes and much more. There are many benefits of implementing the new system into your project, these include:
- Durable and long-lasting – the light-gauge steel frame panelised system is exceptionally robust, enduring extreme weather without compromising the structure.
- Design flexibility – Our advanced panelised system offers significant design flexibility, accommodating the build of various property types, effortlessly.
- Speed and efficiency – The ILRH solution allows for speedy delivery and on-site installation, with structures being completed in days rather than weeks – potentially cutting overall build times by up to 50%.
- Reduced carbon and waste – Our panelised steel frame solution minimises on-site waste, and embodied carbon in building materials is reduced by up to 20%. In addition, through efficient loading and coordinated logistics, vehicle movements to site are reduced.
- Cost effective – The low-rise solution offers speed, efficiency and cost savings compared to alternative construction methods. Reduced construction times and lower labour costs contribute to a compelling commercial proposition, ensuring a quicker return on investment.
This new advancement in our solution offering will provide quick and affordable housing when it is most needed.

Support from the start
We’re proud of how our team supports customers. For our recent low-rise project, we worked with R&M Property Group Ltd to produce a low-rise residential project for eight family homes in South Manchester. With the ILRH solution, the installation was quick and hassle-free.
Thomas McKenna, Chair & CEO, R&M Property Group Ltd said; “We are a principal contracting firm that specialises in the design and installation of new homes using Modern Methods of Construction, delivering homes up to 40% faster.
For one of our recent projects, building eight family homes, we chose Intrastack’s LGSF low-rise housing system for the frame and roof. We found the design and installation to be fast and efficient, with superb professional support provided by the Intrastack sales and technical teams. We look forward to providing more clients with our mutual services.”
