Vabene casa is generally around 800-1000 Sq. M. the second brand in the portfolio is Vabene itself which concentrates on kitchen and bathroom space requirements 300-500 Sq. M.

MAKEiS is a well-rounded and complete concept for thermal insulation of buildings and facilities. MAKEiS optimizes and digitizes the entire construction process of a thermal insulation system, from the raw materials manufacturer, to distributor, producer (developer), builder, and investor (end user). This ensures that the process becomes cost-effective, traceable and environmentally friendly in the long-term. Compared against current thermal insulation technologies, MAKEiS offers twice as much productivity, with the insulation layer being twice as thin, three to four times lighter. Furthermore, the wall of the building or facility is not drilled during installation. MAKEiS technology is unique in that it can be effectively used for indoor and outdoor insulation of industrial and residential buildings. It can be further employed for insulation of industrial facilities with a working temperature of up to 200 degrees Celsius. With minor changes in technology, MAKEiS is capable of providing interior insulation with a decorative effect. MAKEiS technology is protected by several international patents for; an insulating product, a manufacturing method for the insulating product, a method for mounting the insulating product and a mobile machine for manufacturing it. • The insulating product is a thermal or noise-insulating panel masterfully coated with a fiberglass tappet or a thin polymer layer. The panels overlap each other, eliminating the possibility of thermal bridges. • The manufacturing method is the technique by which the insulating product is produced with a mobile machine on site. Panels are produced with the required overall dimensions, as to minimise waste generation. With minor modifications, the technology allows for the production of decorative interior 3D thermal or noise insulating panels. • The installation method conveys how to assemble the insulating product with solely 3 operations: foremost in order, the panel is glued with fast-acting polymeric adhesive, after which a glass-fiber wallpaper imitating different types of plasters is glued. Aside from the aforementioned, the glass-fiber wallpaper further acts as protection of the insulation against environmental influences. The third and last operation is painting. It is possible that the finishing layer is a plaster, or perhaps another material. Details have been developed regarding the installation of each constituent individual element of the building structure. • The Mobile Plant (Make Machine) is a mini-factory, with facilitated mobility and transportation. It is equipped with IoT technology, innovatively allowing for online access and management. All constituent parts of the MAKEiS technology are connected in a specialized cloud platform developed as an ERP with online connection to production plant (Make Machine). Specialized software processes images of objects by converting them into high-precision digitized drawings. Based on these drawings, a separate software calculates the exact number and size of the required insulating panels required for the insulation of the aforementioned object. This information is communicated to the machine that in turn produces the insulating panels.
