At BIOTEKT, we believe the future of home-building outside of urban areas is in earth-homes that are integrated with their natural surroundings. We manufacture bio-architecture with BIOTEKT to create sustainable homes made from the same high-tech materials as those used to build the US space shuttles. The end results are stunning energy efficient earth-sheltered homes which are unique, and which can be designed to suit the home buyer’s needs.

Our homes have been described as looking similar to those of the Hobbits in Lord of the Rings. That is because our modular panels have been designed to be covered with earth and vegetation which results in homes with lower maintenance and lower energy costs.

BIOTEKT PANELS ARE HIGH-QUALITY

Homes built with our BIOTEKT panels are not much different in overall costs from other custom home builds. In fact, they may be slightly higher in cost due to the architectural challenges of dealing with curved panels.  In addition, shipping the panels internationally is a cost that needs to be factored in, as all our product is currently manufactured in Columbia, Latin America. Soon, we will have manufacturing capability in Romania to serve the European market. While BIOTEKT homes are not inexpensive to build, they provide savings going forward in the form of lower heating and cooling costs.

We use a modular construction system with panels manufactured with composites of recycled materials which are highly durable. These panels can be assembled to create earth sheltered custom homes or structures for commercial uses.

BIOTEKT IS A MANUFACTURER

As an international manufacturer, BIOTEKT now has distributors in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Romania. We design and fabricate the panels, then ship them to the homeowner/builder. The homeowner will need to engage the services of a local architect and a construction company to pour the foundation, assemble the panels, build, and finish the home onsite. Permits, and meeting local building codes are the responsibility of the local professionals and contractors. Though we are not directly involved with the actual builds of homes using our product, we can provide consulting services and recommendations to assist local architects and builders with our knowledge of how to achieve the best desired result, a nature immersed residential home or commercial building.  Our 10-year warranty for the quality and integrity of the materials and against manufacturing defects is contingent upon the builder following our detailed manual of manufacturer’s installation instructions.

If you are exploring the idea of building a unique, eco-friendly home or commercial building, you will want to learn more about what we do. Our products’ materials, design, and manufacturing are all done to support environmentally conscious and sustainable goals. Currently, a build of agricultural EcoSpheres using BIOTEKT is underway in Florida to create a vegan Eco Farm. Several homes have been built in the US with our products and also an eco-spa in

*You really want this because you love freedom and even more so you want this because:

You have the land but you don’t have the house yet. And this is exactly what you want:
*A house built to suit your taste, made from sustainable materials and placed in a green environment, peaceful and surrounded by nature, plants, trees and animals.

*You’re fed up with the long distance between you and the green scenery you’re usually visiting.

*The traditional available housing materials are bricks, concrete or steel. You don’t want these materials around you because they aren’t as eco-friendly as you would want.

*The unstable thermic comfort gives you a headache: it`s either way too hot or way too cold.

*You like arched ceilings and you want them in your house but they are very difficult to make with traditional materials

*Deforestation, pollution, floods, extended fire on large areas… All these are the consequences of the current global misbalance and what you want is to help contribute to a healthier environment by choosing a house that’s more eco-frienly.

Mediocrity and the typical ways of life aren’t for you as you are a visionary and you see and feel the future differently:

It`s a future that brings together all the benefits of living close to nature.

You love the unconventional way of life and even more so a lifestyle that includes environmental solutions, solutions that allow you to live life on your terms but at the same time these are solutions that support the preservation of the planet, of the animals and plants.

As such, it is just normal to want a house that:

💚 Offers you all the comfort specific to the 21^st century, a house that is surrounded by greenery, far away from noise and civilization and where you can do your quiet meditation or yoga sessions

💚 Has a roof on which you can grow organic green salad, vegetables and fruits (strawberry, for example) or you can play with kids and your pets

💚 Has an arched ceiling that gives you a nice and cozy larger dimension and a well-being feeling; a house that allows you to feel the green grass the moment you stepped outside

It`s an image that appears often in your mind and you’ve been dreaming about it for a long time.

It is clear now that this is what you want and you are 100% decided to do this but you don’t know or have any details or information, and all that is known to you is the image of this house that you want for you and your family… 

Where to start? Who can you contact and who can help you build this ideal house? – The solution is called Biotekt! Biotekt USA LLC is an American company that designs custom houses – (like the prototypes presented in the design section of their website) manufactures the shells – panels for the eco-friendly Biotekt house.

Biotekt mission

To provide sustainable, nature immersed, 21st century smart living systems through bio-architecture, integrating humanity and the environment by reducing its visible footprint on the planet.

What kind of house systems does Biotekt suggest?

Houses built from recycled materials that will last for centuries to come, supporting this way the environment and reducing the negative consequences upon the planet.

As such, we are talking about houses that have:

💚 Access to the rooftop garden

💚 Green footprint as opposed to the grey concrete

💚 Earth berm around and soil on top of the house, this will stabilize the temperature inside and is a support structure for your garden of flowers, vegetables, fruits or simply green grass.

💚 Beautifully arched ceilings

💚 Investment – compared to the traditional methods of building, the Biotekt house might have a similar cost; may present lesser or bigger cost based on the overall features as required by the client.

💚 Construction time frame – this depends on so many factors like design time, ordering time, construction time for foundations, interior and exterior finishing, utilities, etc. While the shell can be indeed installed in just a few days, the other design / construction activities may take a few good weeks, likely months.
