Manufacturing custom wood products in California since 1979. Tiny Homes Portfolio About Us RW on FB Producing Tiny Homes to Address Homelessness Crisis The need to provide homes for our vulnerable populations is becoming more critical than ever. The faltering economy and employment instability is threatening to increase the unhoused population, and at the same time, the COVID-19 outbreak is making safe housing crucial. Ruszel Woodworks has been manufacturing wood products for over 40 years, primarily ready-to-assemble retail displays. In an effort to confront and address the homelessness crisis, we’re now looking to pivot our wood manufacturing expertise to producing prefabricated, ready-to-assemble tiny homes. We aim to produce homes for municipalities, organizations, and individuals working to tackle the crisis of homelessness. These are not sheds or shipping containers, but homes purpose-built to be affordable, durable, dignified, and beautiful. This will allow us to focus our efforts on a truly critical product, while continuing to provide career employment to our 20+ employees. Moving Forward Currently, our concept is to produce homes as private spaces for communities with separate central kitchen and bathroom facilities. We now need input from experts in the field to finalize the design of our homes. Our goal is to work with organizations involved in deploying emergency housing in order to find out what considerations are needed in the homes that we produce. Please reach out to us at Homes@ruszelwoodworks.com to let us know what would make our product perfect for your needs. Our Homes Our concept is to produce engineered rigid panels that allow for: •Versatility of home designs and scalability – Our 96”x48” panels lend themselves to a wide variety of layouts. Our ability to run panels as production line components means that neighborhoods of 10 homes or 100 homes can be immediately put into production. •Quick and simple shipping, assembly, and disassembly – Our primary home design (shown above) will ship from our Northern California facility on two pallets, and can be assembled by two people in a day. If needed, our homes will be easy to disassemble and relocate. •Strength and durability – By employing torsion box construction, our panels are extremely strong and resistant to warping or twisting. They’ll come pre-insulated, and factory manufacturing means that we’re able to make each panel to exacting tolerances, for easy assembly and a beautiful finished product. •Rapid manufacturing capability – Ruszel Woodworks comes to homebuilding from a background in manufacturing. Efficiency of component manufacturing helps to speed and streamline production while helping keep cost down. - Subscribe - We’re making progress everyday on developing our homes.
