ZEDfactory also has a development arm, ZED Projects Ltd, whose purpose is twofold - to compete favourably with volume housebuilders as a sustainable developer; and to offer a complete 'land partnering' service to land owners who wish to develop their land with us. The company's ethics are to operate openly, honestly and fairly, and to deliver quality sustainable developments.

By using our own standard housetypes, we can obtain economies of scale, and adopt off-site construction methods for major components. This means we can build carbon-neutral communities at prices approaching run-of-the-mill volume housing. Designs can be tailored to meet the client's appetite and aspirations for sustainable features. We can offer our buildings with a full ZED specification, or as a low-energy, low-carbon building which is designed to be upgraded to a full ZED specification over time.

ZED Projects Ltd offers a complete service from design idea through to planning application and construction. Services include arranging project financing; appointment and management of a main contractor and specialist subcontractors; procurement and supply-chain management; and marketing and sales. Using these services in conjunction with our standard housetypes, we can reduce risk to give greater certainty over costs and timescales. The end result for the client should be a higher specification building, and increased profit from their land.
