MIBT is in the business of manufacturing, distributing, and the construction of Innovative Building Technology.
Mi Panel (modular innovative) is a structurally insulated, lightweight concrete panel - a quality walling system that can be used anywhere in the construction industry and is part of the SIP technology group in construction (Structurally Insulated Panels) – the most dominant building technology worldwide currently.
This is one of the best forms of modular construction that is both load bearing and structural, with testing data from 2 universities that demonstrate that Mi Panel is stronger than a double brick wall on vertical compression and shear capacity.
You can hang 740 Kg’s of weight off our walls.
Mi Panel has a 2-hour rating that is tested on the highest standards in the world with Fire Labs SA.
SIP technology has been in use all over the world for the past 70 years. Mi Panel is a panel that can be used independently or in conjunction with any other conventional building systems in any application in any environment. Mi Panel is positioned directly against clay brick as its nearest competitor in terms of physical properties, performance, consumer, developer and built environment professional requirements. MIBT, in product and strategy, execution and in meeting regulatory requirements, in pricing, placement and consumer acceptance, speaks to every single aspect of the 4th industrial revolution in construction.
Mi Panel speaks to all the specific outcomes when it comes to meeting 14 of the 17 UN Development goals for affordable housing and is ideally suited for ESG investing and specifically embraces the critical factors of impact investments and the circular economy – especially for affordable housing and the educational environment.
Mi Panel is a unique product that speaks directly to the immediate and future needs of an African continent ready to embrace its specific challenges in the built environment of a lack of natural resources - especially water and low embodied energy construction materials.
Mi (Modular Innovative) Panel is a load bearing lightweight concrete insulated panel that is 75 mm thick , 600 mm wide and is manufactured in 2400 , 2700 or 3000 mm lengths. Mi Panel is a walling system that is completely waterproof and is impervious to rising damp, moulding or delamination – which is a common problem with inferior SIP technologies that are not manufactured in an autoclaved process in a controlled environment. Mi Panels are manufactured with an exothermic process that requires zero energy in the curing process, making it one of the greenest walling construction materials with the lowest embodied energy fit for purpose.
MIBT has the largest capacity for manufacturing SIP technologies in Africa and can meet clients demands with ease.
We can manufacture 24 000 m2 of walling in a production month with our installed capacity.
The lead time for supply is 10 days from date of order.
Mi Panel is also suited for modular construction with homes, office buildings, schools that are prefabricated off-site and rapidly deployed on site or construction that is executed on site with tangible and demonstrated time savings and cost savings. Building with Mi Panel requires almost no water, thereby eliminating the need for building sand, cement, a hosepipe, or even a wheelbarrow on site. This is sustainable construction with the least impactful footprint on the earth - that is done in the most quality controlled and sustainable manner possible.
