Bushfire Response

Interim accommodation for rebuilding after Bushfires.

Our prefabricated building at cost, on your land.

We offer our Pop Cottage at cost, to any family that has lost their home.

We are offering a price that does not include any profit margin, or our license fee. The cost is $33,000 per building to any port in Australia. That price includes:
  • Double glazed thermal break aluminium framed windows
  • Bathroom with toilet, handbasin and shower
  • Small kitchen
  • Internal painted finish

We will need help from others to cover the transport from port to site. Within a day, the building can be made ready to occupy.

We need at least five orders to do this, so we need help to raise awareness.

When the building is no longer needed, it can be sold and moved to a new location, as it can easily fold down and be carried away on a tray truck.

If you loan a family-in-need the basic cost of the building, you can help meet their needs at this time, and later sell the building to recover costs.

Please share this page so that we can help those affected families with their urgent accommodation needs.

Your health and your community's health
Accommodation is fundamental to rebuilding community relationships. A place to sleep, a place to be comfortable and a place to wash and cook. These are all essential.
Our Pop Cottage building can be taken anywhere. It expands and can be set up with the help of a builder. No trades are needed because the work is done in our factory.
Essential Accommodation
Trying to rebuild without proper accommodation makes it harder than it should be.
We deliver out of container or on the back of a tray-truck and then we expand the building into to a 5m by 5m cottage that includes bathroom and kitchen. A safe and secure place to live while rebuilding the community.
We aim to deliver and install anywhere in Australia in 60 to 90 days. We deliver by tray truck, or by container.

Our building rests lightly on the ground. We can install it and take it away without a trace. It installs like a permanent house, it is solid safe and secure. But if you decide later that you want to take it away or sell it, it can fold up and be taken away on a tray truck to where you or someone else might need it. Flexible, responsive and saving money.
Can we have one here?
Pop Cottage has all the certification and compliance paperwork completed. Pop Cottage meets all the regulations, no need to worry about all that.
Engineering - done!
Pop Cottage meets engineering certification for all of Australian Wind Regions (up to and including wind classification C2). This means all of Australia, except the red region on the mid west coast. If you do live in Region D we are happy to find a solution, but it might take a bit longer.
Energy performance - done!
Pop Cottage complies with energy regulations in all Australia's Climate Zones. No matter which climate zone you are in, your Pop Cottage will be a comfortable temperature with minimal energy costs.
Environmentally sustainable - yes!
All materials are sourced from sustainable forests. Materials that require the burning of fossil fuels like concrete, glass and metal, are minimised.
Off-grid solution - possible!

Planning - there are alternatives
  1. Ancillary path: If your shire council has planning regulations that apply to your land, we classify the Pop Cottage as an ancillary building. Usually that means that no planning permit is needed if you locate the Pop Cottage near a house.
  2. Not a permanent building: We can deliver on a skid, ready to be taken away on a tray truck. But we can still install removable foundations so the Pop Cottage is properly secure.
  3. Delivery on wheels: This we can do, but the trailer rig costs more.
After you order, we ship to the nearest port and then truck to your site. Everything is preinstalled. A builder will make the foundation and install the building.

We build in a factory. That's how we can provide a quality building. We are partnered with one of the biggest house building companies in our part of the world.

Its a more comfortable, healthier, better building
SIP HAUS ticks the four boxes:
  • low cost computer driven production system;
  • environmentally sustainable;
  • low heating and cooling costs; and
  • a healthy and comfortable house.
SIP buildings are made from Structural Insulated Panels that are becoming popular now in Australia because they are low cost, sustainable and high performance.
  1. Build Cost: SIP technology has been used for many decades and with today's computer controlled manufacturing means you have a very high quality building while controlling cost.
  2. Global Good: SIPs are made from sustainable materials, provide good levels of carbon storage and have low embodied energy. Lower running costs for the building is a bonus for the planet.
  3. Lifetime Cost: By controlling internal temperature with high performance insulation the lifetime cost of the building is low. A basic brick buildings that is cheap to build, expensive to heat and cool and not actually comfortable to live in is not really a bargain is it? And bricks and concrete generally are produced by burning fossil fuels.
  4. Health & Comfort: Live in clean, comfortable, conditioned comfort all year round. We all deserve a healthy, pleasant environment.
