Building a better world, by design. Plant Prefab is the first prefabricated design and construction company in the United States dedicated to sustainable construction, materials, processes, and operations. They empower individuals, architects, and developers with a faster, more efficient way to build single-family homes, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), and multi-family projects. Clients can work with any architect they choose, or select from a growing collection of LivingHome designs created by world-renowned architects. Plant was spun off of an award-winning design studio that created the first home to ever achieve USGBC LEED for Homes Platinum certification. The team has since designed dozens of LEED Platinum and Gold-certified projects, making Plant one of the most experienced designers of healthy, sustainable homes. All Plant projects are prefabricated in the company's 62,000-sq-ft homebuilding facility in Rialto, CA utilizing the Plant Building System™. Combining advanced engineering with Plant Panels™ and Plant Modules™, the system provides greater design flexibility, quality control, and time and cost efficiencies than both site-based construction and conventional prefab approaches while drastically reducing waste.
