EOS have been manufacturing award-winning offsite light steel framing systems for over 16 years and have been part of Etex Group since 2017. Etex is a global industrial group with a diverse portfolio, incorporating strong brands and an entrepreneurial spirit drive growth.

Etex inspires the world to build safe, sustainable, smart and beautiful living spaces with a wide spectrum of lightweight solutions. From innovative modular systems to leading fibre cement and plasterboard systems. From applications for cladding, façade, roofing and terrace to high-performance fire protection and insulation for construction and OEM applications.

EOS are committed to technical excellence and understand the challenges faced by architects and specifiers – through Etex New Ways we have some of the best fire experts in the UK on our team. By eliminating uncertainty through rigorous testing regimes, EOS deliver light steel frame systems with certified and predictable performance.

Quality, safety and sustainability are at the very core of our organisation. EOS has recently successfully completed three quality badge audits with 100% success and zero non-conformances against ISO 9001:2015 quality management, ISO14001:2015 environmental systems and ISO45001:2018 health and safety management with no non-conformance issues or even any opportunities for improvement or areas of concern.

Performance Assured

EOS are continually looking at ways to make the building process not only inherently safer but also to offer performance assurances to developers to make certain they can provide sufficient levels of protection to occupants:

  • The amount of combustible material in a light steel framed building is much lower
  • Steel is non-combustible and does not add to the fire load of a building
  • Fire resistance periods from 60 – 120 minutes are readily achievable
  • Steel offers the best strength-to-weight ratio to improve efficiencies
  • EOS implement rigorous testing and quality control regimes
  • Light steel frame structures fully comply with Building Regulations

Advanced Manufacturing

Embracing a World Class Manufacturing ethos and optimising Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) principles are at the heart of the EOS operation. With a culture of continuous improvement, we invest in research to develop pioneering offsite systems which deliver enhanced quality, productivity and safety.
