Amazing New Bulletproof PREFAB HOME Enters Factory Built Market

[@hugatechnology7270]

Hi Kerry! All of us here at Hüga Technology loved your video! Amazing job as always. We appreciate your kind words and analysis in our work. Here in Hüga we strive to create products focused in the consumers and their needs. Meaning a product that allows you to enjoy each day full of your favorites activities without having to worry about the hustle of maintain a home. There is lots of interest in this new way of building/thinking and are super exited to be a part of the pioneers in bringing the construction industry to the XXI century. We are looking to start productions in the US by mid-2022 and more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

What are the considerations for hotter climates where the normal temperature is 30 degrees celcius or higher ? Concrete is a heat insulator. I'm thinking in places like Vietnam or south east asia.

I really like these homes and I take "indestructable" to mean that it can handle any weather. If it is bullet proof, it will also be able to withstand a certain amount of blast wave, but not a direct hit of course. I like the idea of being in a hurricane, yet having no worry that the roof will lift off.

[@philhagerman]

As a Floridian, yes Florida does in fact have tornados, lots of them every year. Not as big as the mid west, but we do get them often with the severe thunderstorms we get all year round.

[@KerryTarnow]

Interesting! I had no idea thought it was all hurricanes. Thanks 🙌🏼

I saw a write up about this company in “Architectural Digest” a couple of years ago. Back then it was just a concept - glad to see them moving forward.

[@Gator777]

75,000.00 is not what I would call affordable. They do not make homes affordable for unless you pile 20 people in them. Why does housing have to cost you everything and more?

[@i..am..]

It's expensive because it's precast concrete start to finish. If you want cheaper check out the Tesla house. It's about the same size and 50k I don't want one of those because I'm in Florida we have tornadoes and hurricanes. Anything other than concrete your gambling. Non concrete houses should be illegal in high wind zones.

[@tvelocidad]

Gigacrete homes are better and far less expensive at about $80 per square foot. The price of the home in the video is outrageous.

[@johncummings9494]

Interesting concept. Looks quite comfortable. Yes, Florida has tornadoes as well as hurricanes. Another informative video. I am curious why companies here in North America have not picked up on these concepts. Thank you.

[@Flyingrabbit2222]

Thanks Terry! I like the idea of precast concrete shells and the ability to add on more living spaces, allowing people to avoid huge bank loans and build as they can afford. I wish companies would build more precast stuff, like concrete A-frames that can be shipped in sections.Hope this company expands its offering to include hallways so that all additions don't have to open onto the original space. I've investigated several companies that build concrete walls on site, but all seem to omit showing the final finishing step in their videos. Since walls are finished in the standing position, the exterior texture is messy. Creating a nice looking finished shell or precast walls makes a lot more sense. I do wish they could be combined to make larger structures, but maybe that will be in the works. After Maui, concrete and blue roofs make a lot of sense.

​@@KerryTarnowyeah we have tornadoes for sure. A few years ago a storm rolled through and dropped 3 f1 tornadoes all around our house. Florida is flat so definitely tornadoes.

I would potentially say that...as we head into the flip side of "lack of product"...from shipping problems...that well have a deflationary effect in product availability...due to over supply in 2023 or so. Nice building. If the thing cost $50k, delivered on a slab or crushed stone...I'd buy one "tomorrow"...get it done in North Carolina...and become a "local distributor for the company"; Create write-offs, grow rental equity...sell Hugas...and prosper. I'll be doing "just this with someone soon...don't know who at this time (12/21)

[@i..am..]

You figure that out? I talked to a guy in the US that's what they are doing in Florida is getting with a local concrete company for production and distribution. They wouldn't tell me where in Florida though. They said the next 4 months they plan to have production starting.

Kerry, at this time Huga does have a US representative in UT Santa Clara Julia Childs, I am currently trying to see if they have models for inspection or viewing and get a handle on shipping cost and clearing Customs, since I am a retired U.S. Customs Officer, I have contacts that can clear Customs at a reasonable fee. The only problem is what is Huga,s current pricing in 2023, for a 1&1, 2&1 unit? $85,000? $95,000 for a 2&1? Along with size 400 sqft 1&1 600 sqft 2&1?

That was probably a modular home. Go check out the aftermath when tornadoes meet those homes. Hence the higher cost. They are actually affordable. Buy 1 pay it off on 5 years or so. Get a second with bedrooms only now you have space for kids. Sure they aren't attached but your family and house won't blow away in a tornado. Everyone decided what priorities they want.

people have to stop pushing this type of thing when the price of something so small is going to cost you waaay way more than buying a house plus land equal to the price of these small over priced shed boxes. If someone really wanted something like this just buy metal 2x4 studs and have someone build you it and it would be the same thing at a hell of a-lot cheaper for the same exact size you are going to buy something like that or even making a shipping container house where you buy one then you end up cutting it all down to then have to rebuild the structure inside again, seriously study what it takes to make one from people who have already done so and you will find out its way over priced and you will get stuck with a money pit and in the end you will only regret all you payed for the such small thing no land included or anything.
