All-in-one System

From Framing to Finish SABS Does It All

The Saebi Alternative Building System (SABS) is a true all-in-one solution. It eliminates the need for multiple trades and materials by combining structure, insulation, and finishes into a single integrated system:

  • Framing: The structural shell and roof system is built using EPS foam, providing strength and design flexibility.

  • Insulation: The EPS core delivers continuous, high-performance thermal insulation.

  • Interior & exterior wall: SABSCRETE serves as both stucco-like exterior and smooth interior wall finish.

  • Flooring: No need for additional floor coverings—SABSCRETE can be finished as a durable, seamless floor surface.

Simplify your build. Save time, labor, and cost with one system designed to do it all.

Simplify Construction and
Elevate Performance

  • Streamlined construction with fewer trades to coordinate

  • No framing, sheathing, or added insulation required

  • Easily adapts to complex architecture and custom designs

  • Fully code-compliant in the U.S. and internationally

  • Validated by over $4M in third-party testing

  • Accelerated construction timelines

  • Lower labor, material, and overhead costs

  • Minimal material waste on-site

  • Greater control from design to delivery

Finishing Options

Interior finishes are indistinguishable from conventional construction, while the system maintains full architectural design flexibility to support a wide range of layouts, materials, and aesthetic styles.

Testimonial

Loved working with Strata! They went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied with the finished product. The benefits compared to traditional wood framing are insane. I’m the first one to build with their Sabscrete here in Northern Arizona and everyone in town is curious about my design. Looking forward to the next one!

Cost Efficiency

Build Smarter Capital

Imagine a construction system that reduces material and labor costs, cuts insurance premiums, and slashes energy bills while delivering a structure engineered to last over 200 years. Our homes are engineered to significantly outperform conventional new construction in energy efficiency, comfort, indoor air quality, and long-term operating costs.

By reducing heating, cooling, and overall energy demand, our homes can provide substantial annual energy savings compared to conventional construction. The result is lower monthly utility bills and reduced lifetime ownership costs.

That’s the value of SABS. Backed by over $4 million in testing and decades of engineering, the SABS system offers investors a scalable, code-approved platform for residential, commercial, and disaster-resilient development domestically and globally.

Invest in a solution that outperforms conventional construction through advanced building science-driven design without design limitations.

High Energy Performance Beyond Code

At Xtrata, sustainability and energy efficiency is not a feature — it’s a foundation.

  • Proven Energy Performance: Our building systems are engineered to deliver exceptional energy performance, with verified HERS® Index ratings showing SABS homes can be more than 60% more energy efficient than conventional new construction with an average yearly savings of $3,271.

  • Net-Zero Ready Design: Many of our homes are designed to be net-zero ready, meaning they can achieve near net-zero or even net-positive energy performance when paired with appropriately sized solar systems.

  • Third-Party Verified Performance: Our homes are independently tested and verified through nationally recognized energy rating programs such as DOE Zero Energy Ready, ensuring performance is measured, documented, and validated by certified third-party professionals.

  • ENERGY STAR® Certified: Qualified homes meet rigorous ENERGY STAR® standards for energy efficiency, delivering superior comfort, lower utility costs, and improved durability compared to standard construction.

  • Carbon Conscious: 100% recyclable and carbon-conscious by design, SABS reduces environmental impact from construction through the entire life of the building.
