DISCOVER HOW

Why We Do It & How

Our purpose is to reshape today's construction industry into a sustainable and innovative tomorrow. Through flexible offsite timber construction software, this is how we do it.

Error-Free Designs

Coordinated 3D models, clash detection, and live drawings don’t just prevent rework, they cut material waste, reduce paper use, and lower energy consumption across projects.
50% fewer errors
because of digital quality assurance & clash detection
Minimal CNC rework
clean files reduce machine time & energy use
+3 projects/year /designer
efficiency gains free up resources (one week saved on a typical 4‑week project)
25k+ paper prints avoided
paper prints avoided yearly

Automation That Cuts CO₂

Automated exports, dashboards, and digital QA cut admin across design, production, and supervision - freeing teams to focus on throughput and quality.
20% less design time
for creating the same output as before
+5% factory productivity
as workflow automation improves efficiency
+3h/home QA saved
due to automated quality data & photo filing
~90% time saved in production prep
automated, one-click exports slash plot export time 4.5 hours down to 30 minutes

Empowering Timber Construction

Integrated design with CNC workflows makes complex timber manufacturable at scale, boosting productivity, reducing wood waste, and accelerating low-carbon delivery.
35-40 kits/week
efficient, paperless output with one-click exports
Less wood waste
optimised modelling & line control (e.g., Multiwall)
Fewer field errors
digital 3D models reduce rework & wasted materials
Lower CO₂ footprint
lightweight timber cuts emissions in transport & building

Sustainability through Prefabrication

Shifting work to controlled factories reduces waste and site traffic while shortening programmes, lowering embodied carbon, and minimizing neighborhood disruption.
~90% less waste
thanks to factory precision with controlled recycling
~45% lower CO₂
when building in a factory vs. traditional builds
~70% fewer site trips
because of consolidated deliveries and reduced commutes
20–50% faster delivery
compressed programmes with offsite

Sustainable Construction with a Global Impact

hsbcad solutions address multiple Sustainable Development Goals while fostering an engaging company culture throughout its global offices.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global blueprint adopted by all United Nations Member States to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. Consisting of 17 interconnected goals, they address urgent global challenges such as climate change, poverty, inequality, environmental degradation, and responsible production. The SDGs aim to create a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable world by 2030.
