Home models prove a big hit

By KESSIE TADAP
THE PNG Forest Products’ recently-launched housing models of Niu Homes (NH) have drawn wide interest from prospective homebuyers nationwide.The series of home design-models were advertised in the newspapers.Marketing manager Fred Alblanaida, when contacted by The National yesterday, said due to the large number enquiries from the public, the company would not be able to reply to individual queries.However, Alblanaida said the company was drafting a standard reply which would be distributed through public channels.This way, the company hopes to answer public queries to their new range of home models.Although the company is not new to building and providing pre-fabricated homes for the PNG homebuyers, Alblanaida said the NH range was the company’s new model type of houses which had been specifically designed to give the people quality and affordable housing, which was “perfect for modern tropical lifestyle”.Asked about the target market, he said: “The company’s new home models are catered for people who could afford to buy them.”“From executive to village design settings, the buildings are 100% PNG made,” Alblanaida said.The buildings are termite-resistant as all timber components have been treated to meet Autralian standards, using 100 % sustainable and renewable pine wood.
