011h is a Spanish construction technology company founded in 2020 by Lucas Carné and José Manuel Villanueva, aiming to revolutionize the construction industry by making net-zero construction viable, reliable, and scalable. The company focuses on residential developers and municipal housing authorities in Spain, partnering with notable clients like Aedas Homes, Culmia, and the Barcelona Municipal Institute of Housing (IMHAB).
011h employs a unique approach that integrates digital technology with prefabricated building systems using circular, low-carbon materials such as mass timber. This method significantly reduces carbon footprints and environmental impacts, cutting embodied carbon by up to 81% compared to conventional methods. The company's digital platform allows for meticulous planning, optimizing the building process from design to construction, and minimizing material waste through just-in-time supply chain sourcing.
The company's model is based on three pillars: prefabricated components, an integrated network of suppliers, and the digitization of the entire process. This approach not only addresses the growing demand for sustainable living spaces but also positions 011h as a leader in the transition to a sustainable built environment. With plans to expand into other market segments and regions, 011h aims to gradually open up its digital tools and methodologies to enable anyone to build net-zero structures, scaling their positive impact and accelerating the global shift towards sustainable construction practices.
