In 1978 the idea of the first wooden house was born, that would give life to the project RUSTICASA®. A craft house, entirely made by hand, built in wooden trunks 30 cm in diameter. The “Trunk House”, as it was then called, remains iconic for the company.
It follows a vast investment process with the acquisition of 10,000m² of industrial land and the construction of a modern factory, equipped with semi-automated production lines. Industrialization would allow us to take the definitive leap into the national market with a quality product.
Over 40 years of experience, RUSTICASA® has acquired a unique and internationally recognized know-how, as evidenced by the awards that have distinguished the company for four decades. From AITIM quality label to 
marking, to LNEC approval.
The quality of the execution determines the durability of the construction. If this statement can be applied to masonry constructions, it can also be said about wooden constructions. In this sense, the quality of our products, our services and our supervision has truly established itself into a true company culture.
From the choice of wood from sustainably managed forests, certified PEFC™ and FSC®, to continuous training of our employees, through research and constant development of the most appropriate constructive solutions, RUSTICASA® has given itself as a mission from its conception, to offer a quality service that respects the environment, while integrating social and economic concerns.
Sustainable wood construction:
the choice of a responsible future
Choosing wood
Wood is an ally in the fight against global warming. Choosing wood means conducting an eco-friendly policy for sustainable development.
Building with wood
To build in wood is to allow the forest to develop, thanks to the sustainable management of its resources, preserving the environment, without destroying the forest capital.
To be eco-friendly
The wood construction helps the ecological balance by its CO2 storage potential, as well as its thermal insulation qualities that limit energy consumption.
FSC® 100% WOOD:
A FOREST IN YOUR HOME
For an eco-friendly wood construction
FSC® is a certificate that guarantees the use of wood in the production processes from sustainable and responsibly managed forests, in terms of environmental, social and economic issues.
The FSC® label on products is a guarantee of transparency that makes you more aware of the choice you are making, more responsible in your purchases, thus establishing the necessary link between forests and consumers.
Now you can make an informed choice and live in harmony with Nature
Living in harmony with Nature
The tool of certifications
RUSTICASA®‘s desire to inform consumers about the true origin of its raw materials led us to select suppliers who adhered to the two main internationally used forest certification standards, the FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) label and PEFC™ (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification).
Recycling :
Let’s imitate Nature
In nature, all substances circulate, are transformed and finally reabsorbed or reused. Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed. This is the living maxim of Lavoisier in his Elementary Treatise on Chemistry. By imitating this natural cycle, RUSTICASA® wooden houses can also be reclaimed, recycled and reused.
A Healthy Home
RUSTICASA® has always taken care to protect people’s health and therefore uses only certified raw materials, strictly adhering to the limits set for the formaldehyde emissions of wood-based panels. In addition, only chlorine-free glues are used throughout the laminated wood production process.
The energy efficiency of wood surpasses all other building materials.
