Rising Sea Levels
Ergohome is built with resilient features making it “immune” from flood,
seismic & arctic conditions, also including sustainable features that are built-in as standard.
RIBA & ICE endorse the ErgoHome as one solution to rising sea levels. "Houses built on stilts would be flood resistant". Recent flooding events in Hull, Tewkesbury & Cockermouth only highlight the clear and present danger for up to 2.6 million UK homes.
In a new research document; Facing up to Rising Sea Levels: Retreat, Defend, Attack? Published 15th January 2010, the authors describe different and more positive approaches to rising sea levels. English coastal cities of Hull & Portsmouth are at risk.
An interview with Radio 4 that day, speaks about the need to “wake-up” ideas to address the issue in more creative & proactive solutions. Luckily ErgoHome has been working on this matter for over 10 years, already delivering an instant solution for not just flooding but & sustainability challenges. Capable of withstanding floodwaters of 2.1 Metres. Based on current projections your feet will be dry in an ErgoHome in Hull until year 2286.
