Build A Kit Home


Sandwich Panels


Technology is always striving to produce products that make our lives easier and more comfortable.

One such innovation is that of sandwich panels.

This is a composite material with 2 surfaces and insulation layer such as polysterene or rockrool or honeycomb. A plaster or internal lining and then a second aluminium or colourbond or PVC lining as examples, to form a sandwich with an insulation core.



Standard sizing allows us to produce an economical, yet strong and highly durable Kit Home.
cross section utilising polysterene core 

By utilising Colourbond or PVC external cladding the maintenance is minimal and the structure is completed without the need for painting.

Additional strength from this ribbed profile is used on the roofing of the home


By utilising this technology Cave Lock Kit Constructions can provide a 6 star energy rating on its homes and Granny Flats. The wall and roof are fully insulated catering for the harsh conditions of the Australian Climate.
