Timeline: 30 Months
Precision, durability, and efficiency in construction—qualities that were paramount in the recent development of Cronins Wood, Killarney. This landmark project is overseen by KPH Construction in partnership with Co-Operative Housing Ireland (CHI). Spanning a total of 249 units over a 30-month timeline, Cronins Wood required a building solution capable of meeting ambitious schedules while upholding the highest standards of quality.
Working alongside key partners, including Meitheal Architects, DOSA Structural Engineers, and our experienced installer Eocwall ICF, Amvic ICF played a pivotal role in delivering this large-scale housing development, which now stands as a model for sustainable and efficient construction in Ireland.
Cronins Wood was designed to meet the specific needs of CHI’s clients—providing high-quality, energy-efficient homes that adhere to modern sustainability standards.
