inpod system lets you have control of the process of creating your residential, leisure or work space without having to worry about the technical as well as build quality. We have partnered with renowned names in the construction business to meet your aspirations and requirements.
inpod is especially designed using inskin material developed from German technology.
It is made from a unique composite building system that’s carefully crafted with
expertise gained from marine and aviation industries. Its surface coating includes
a PU paint system combined with a selection of both, visible and non-visible materials
which yield a combination of crack resistance, extreme robustness and a beautiful
even surface.
Every step is supervised and each aspect is detailed to perfection. Assuring you
of pods with a flawless finish, elegant feel and stunning looks.
Our pods are not only easily accessible to you, but they are also capable of accessing
the most unlikely locations that so far seemed impossible to build on.
Due to the unique Plug and Play nature of inpods’ MEP services, pod buildings require
very little effort and almost no time for onsite installation. This feature allows
you the luxury of having structurally integral fully finished monolithic pods, ready
to be plugged into utilities for immediate use. Even in the most challenging geographical
areas.
inpod brings the quality and strength of marine and aviation industries to the construction
world. inskin, a one-of-its-kind composite material that’s lighter than wood and
yet stronger than concrete, forms the building blocks of our pods.
This composite material comprises a combination of Epoxy Resins, Tri and Quadra
Axis glass and high density PU, which is coated with PU paint or Gelcoat. The method
of cold-welding is employed for the joinery using inskin and the principle of epoxy
bonding.
As a result, inpods enjoy incredible strength and weight benefits over their conventional
alternatives. Each inpod has a load bearing capacity of 1 ton per sq. mtr. horizontally
and 10 tons per sq. mtr. vertically. In addition, it can easily carry twice its
own weight on its roof.
Each inpod has built-in provisions and features which make it possible to connect it seamlessly and effortlessly with other pods. This extensive foundation system coupled with the ‘completely built’ and ‘ready to use’ nature of the pods ensures that space is never a constraint. inpod combines advanced materials and processes of manufacturing in marine and aircraft industries, with the assembly line design of the automotive industry. Assuring you of faster delivery of inpods, without compromising on quality.
The inskin composite parts that constitute the main building material for inpod
comply with German test type A. The high density PU provides high resistance from
fire.
Tests carried out on parts have proven that inpod’s sustain their structural integrity
and restrict the fire from spreading beyond the initial area, even after being exposed
to an extreme temperature of 1250 degree Celsius over a period of 30 minutes.
Needless to say, these fire resistant properties make inpod’s ideal for work, living
and leisure spaces as well as commercial and industrial applications.
Weighing in at 6 kg/m², the inskin composite material is lighter than timber and yet it is stronger than concrete. As a result, the monolithic structures made out of our composite materials act four times stronger than their RCC counter parts. This keeps inpod’s protected against winds of upto 300 kmph.
The inskin and infast bonding materials used in building boats are utilized in the manufacturing process of inpod. This makes it ideal for use in coastal areas with high saline content, both in air and water as algae, fungi, water and osmosis have no effect on it.
inskin composites have been tested by repeatedly shooting a six feet rod through a cannon @ 60 feet per second. After repeated assaults on the same area of inskin, there is no penetration. This makes it safe against flying debris.
The secret behind inpods incredible strength is the unique way in which it is produced. Instead of conventional joinery, the inskin parts are bonded using our own self-developed infast epoxy bonding material. As a result, pods withstand seismic events four times higher than the conventional structures. Tests have shown that buildings made using composite material will retain structural integrity on deflection of upto 20%.
inpods, made using inskin composite material are amongst the most energy efficient
construction modules in the world. The acoustic absorption index of inskin composite
material is 28db and its heat insulation parameter of 0.04 w/mk surpasses the stringent
German low energy standards and easily exceeds that of conventional buildings.
Besides, the highly insular nature of PU used in the composition of inskin bars
blocks the atmospheric heat and regulates the pods interior temperature with minimum
outside assistance. As a result of these outstanding energy credentials, the inpod
is often referred to as the Green pod.
The production process of inpod combines advanced materials and processes of manufacturing used in the marine and aviation industries, with the assembly line design of the automotive industry to achieve mass production of the highest quality of inpods. Thus making it possible to build your leisure, residential or work space in a matter of just a few days.
The use of composite building material offers possibility of innovative approach towards production. inpods are painted in their custom built spray booth to receive PU paint, Gelcoat and Epoxy paint. This allows inpods to be painted in vibrant colours.

The unique and intuitive turnkey nature of inpod's structure make them immediately ready for use on installation. Additionally, even as each inpod module is independent with its own MEP systems, its intuitive design similar to LEGO blocks means that it can be connected with or plugged into other pods to make more complex buildings.
inpod structures achieve their performance advantage over conventional material because of a unique new composite material called inskin, which comprises of outer protective coating of either PU paint or Gelcoat and, in-between materials consisting a combination of Epoxy Resins, Tri and Quadra Axis glass and high density PU. This unique material is developed from German technology and is lighter than wood and yet stronger than concrete. It is four times stronger than its RCC counterparts. And can carry a load of 1 ton per sq. mtr. horizontally and 10 tons per sq. mtr. vertically. Using the method of cold-welding using infast, a specially developed bonding system, inskin is crafted to form the basic structure of inpod. Both inskin and infast bonding materials used in manufacturing process inpod’s are waterproof, penetration proof and non-flammable. Thus, making our structures stronger than almost any other construction methods in the world.
inpods are built with the assembly line design of the automotive industry, where they move from a jig based fabrication to their custom built spray booth to receive their incredible paint finish. Then, they move along subsequent assembly stations to receive their doors and windows as well as their MEP services. The result, structurally integral fully finished monolithic pods ready to be plugged into utilities for immediate use.
