Homes for Today, Built for Tomorrow
About Fortis
The Fortis Home is a new application of existing construction technologies.
The word "Fortis" is Latin for strength and durability. The name reflects our commitment to building robust, long-lasting homes.
We use off-site manufactured components and Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) to deliver resilient and energy efficient homes. This is part of a mission-driven commitment to improving the housing industry and ensuring fair and equal access to safe, comfortable housing choices.
Benefits of the Approach

Fortis Homes leverage SIPs for superior energy efficiency, helping residents save around $1200 annually on energy costs.
Sustainability
Our SIPs design reduces emissions and energy usage, contributing to a sustainable future. The innovative design minimizes waste and optimizes resource use.
Rapid Construction
The panelized modular design allows Fortis to cut construction time on-site, reducing labor costs and enabling rapid housing development.
Long-Term Affordability
Built to last, Fortis Homes require less upkeep, providing long-term affordability for homeowners. Savings on energy costs and durability make these homes a smart investment.
Scalability
Flexible building methods meet diverse housing needs, allowing for innovation and faster construction of new affordable units.

how we work
Built for Efficiency Efficiently
Fortis reimagines home construction by applying existing technologies in an innovative way. The process results in energy-efficient, high-quality homes faster, ensuring sustainability and superior craftsmanship.
Panel Delivery & Storage
The home's SIP panels arrive on a truck to our warehouse. Our precise logistics ensure timely delivery and seamless integration into the construction process.
Off-Site Assembly
While the home site and foundation are prepped, the construction team begins assembling the interior walls in our controlled warehouse environment.
Vertical Construction
When it's time to go vertical, the SIP panels, interior walls, and appliances are ready to be moved to the site as needed. This streamlined process reduces delays and increases construction efficiency.
