Canadian houses in the Biobío Region
We build with the Canadian Metalcon system, on site, across the Biobío Region — from Greater Concepción and the coast to the valleys of Los Ángeles. It is not a prefab kit house: it's Canadian construction built on your land.
Building in the Biobío
The Biobío is rain and humidity country: long, wet winters, plus salty air and wind on the coast. The galvanized steel of the Metalcon system doesn't rot or warp with humidity, and the Canadian system's double barrier keeps the walls dry and the house warm.
It's also one of the most seismically active areas of the country. The Canadian system's light steel structure performs excellently in earthquakes: less mass to move in a quake, and connections designed to flex without collapsing.
Why a Canadian house in the Biobío
- Galvanized steel that resists coastal humidity and salty air.
- Light structure with excellent seismic behavior.
- Insulation and a double barrier against the southern winter rain.
- We know the municipal regulations and soils of the region.

FAQ — Biobío
How does the house perform in an earthquake?
Very well: the galvanized-steel structure is light and ductile, with less mass than traditional construction and connections that absorb movement. It's one of the system's strong points in seismic areas like the Biobío.
Do southern humidity and rain affect Metalcon?
No: galvanized steel doesn't rot or warp with humidity, and the system includes a double barrier against water. That's why it works so well in the region's rainy climate.
Do you serve Greater Concepción and Los Ángeles?
Yes, we cover the whole region: Concepción, San Pedro de la Paz, Chiguayante, Talcahuano, Los Ángeles, Cabrero, Mulchén, Nacimiento and surroundings.
