– Traditional LCH (Low Cost Housing)� Brick and Mortar 220 mm walls, 0,30 mm single steel sheet roof without insulation, non insulated

low cost wooden doors & aluminum / steel windows, standard aesthetic colors & finishing� Build up in usually 30 days� Doubtful durability, robustness & comfort. Sometimes bad achieved due to savings on materials

– AMC PROTEA LCH� 1st choice quality insulated panels for wall (60mm) & roofs (40mm)� Insulated windows and doors� Provides extreme robustness, insulation so energy costs saving for users, durability, healthiness

Protea , a solution for reconstruction & low cost housing 3 - Protea system3.1 – From traditional LCH to AMC PROTEA LCH
