Vaishnavi Group’s 896-apartment, Vaishnavi Serene at Yelahanka, North Bangalore is a testimony to this next-gen technology collaboration

Bangalore, September 3, 2019: Vaishnavi Group joins hands with Katerra, a technology-driven offsite construction company to introduce the next generation in housing construction technology. With the implementation of integrated offsite manufacturing technology and the concept of DfMA (Design for manufacturing and assembly), Vaishnavi Group can now ensure:

¾    50% faster completion time

¾    90% factory-finished elements including all in-built mechanical, electrical, plumbing services

¾    100% offsite manufactured bathroom pods dropped onsite for easy plug and play

¾    Close to 40% reduction in pollution through minimised vehicular movement

¾    Close to 29% material conservation, water saved through steam curing, design efficiency and factory planning to reduce material usage        

Speaking on the launch of Vaishnavi Serene, Mr. C.N.  Govindaraju, Founder and Managing Director Vaishnavi Group, “In keeping with our aim of ‘Building from the Heart’, we have created homes that give people the best use of their space. For instance, our immaculate planning ensure that a 1,118 sqft home gives the home owner the experience and efficiency of a 1400 sqft home! The quality of construction is unparalleled thanks to the offsite manufacturing technology that is being used and this ensures that the hand-over of homes will not just be on or ahead of schedule but will be delivered with an impeccable quality. And with Yelahanka being an upcoming growth hub, the infrastructural development currently underway will only serve to make this project a winning proposition for a home buyer”.

Speaking on the collaboration with Katerra, Mr. Darshan Govindaraju, Director, Vaishnavi Group says, “With this collaboration, the quality of construction we are offering to potential home owners at Vaishnavi Serene is unparalleled. This offsite manufacturing technology ensures that homes are not just handed over as per the schedule but potentially even earlier with an assurance that quality remains top notch at all times. Further, the impact on the environment is minimal across the board”.

Speaking on the efficiency of introducing this next-generation construction technology, Nejeeb Khan, the Head - Design & Brand Strategy, Asia & Middle East, Katerra, says, “Our teams have worked to design, engineer, factory-manufacture and assemble high-quality housing, built offsite, eliminating many of the common problems associated with traditional on-site construction. Designed and manufactured with precision, we believe in delivering quality homes through technology, ultimately increasing the speed and quality of delivery, while simultaneously being more sustainable by reducing

waste, optimised resource utilisation, and minimal environmental disruption. A prime example of this technology is in action Vaishnavi Serene."

Vaishnavi Group will unveil Vaishnavi Serene that will showcase Katerra’s unique technology. This project is adjacent to the lush green CRPF Campus in Yelahanka. The project comprises 896 apartments in configurations of 1, 2 & 3-bedroom apartments. It offers potential home owners several firsts in terms of features – from being the first residential project in Bangalore to be built with Global off-site precast technology, to being the first community to offer homes with a new set of specifications and smart sizes to highly enhanced space efficiency along with Vaastu compliance.
