Pods in the wild
One shell. A hundred lives.
From a backyard studio to a two-bed home on the ridge, the same composite pod adapts to site, climate and use. A few of the ways clients are putting them to work.
HomeTwo-bed on the ridge
Twin pods joined with a shared veranda — a compact off-grid home in the bushveld.
StudioGarden office
A quiet 12.5 m² studio at the end of the garden, wired for work-from-home.
CottageBackyard tiny home
A self-contained cottage for a teenager, a parent or a rental — footprint of a double garage.
HospitalityEco-lodge suites
A row of guest suites for a game reserve — shipped flat, assembled in days.
IndustrialSite office & storage
A secure, weather-tight construction office that redeploys to the next job.
AgricultureFarm worker housing
Durable, dignified shelter on remote farms — no rot, no rust, no annual repaint.
The material story
Grown, not smelted.
Saltus poles are wound from continuous glass fibre with a hemp-bast reinforcement layer, set in a UV-stable resin matrix. The result is a pole that weighs a fraction of steel, never rusts, doesn't rot, and passes UL94 flammability testing at V-0.
Current development with mining-sector partners extends the composite to include recycled plastic and mining waste, further reducing reliance on virgin material.
