Straw-bale construction uses conventional small bales of straw (commonly wheat, barley, rye and oat straw) as structural elements, insulation or both.
5 reasons why to consider a straw bale building:
- Energy efficient
- Sustainable & environmental (ECO-friendly)
- Safe in fires and earthquakes
- Friendly for homeowner builders
- Warm in the winter and cool in the summer
