What Cabn Co. Foundation does

CABN Co. Ltd. is a Canadian clean-tech prefabricated housing company founded in 2021 in Brockville, Ontario by CEO Jackson Wyatt. The company designs and manufactures net-zero and carbon-negative homes using FSC-certified Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) sourced from Canadian forests, assembled via a patent-pending component-based construction system (CABN Core Technology) that compresses core assembly to 48 hours–7 days and full finishing to 2–5 months, against an 18+ month conventional baseline. The product portfolio covers nine residential models ranging from 540 sq ft (MOR.II, $139,000 CAD) to 2,500+ sq ft (LA.TIGO), a 21-design BCH-Ready municipal catalog (fourplexes, sixplexes, townhomes, ADUs), and commercial buildings (e.g., a 2,400 sq ft National Car Rental facility in Trenton, Ontario). Technical components include integrated solar PV and battery storage, energy-informed design modelling, smart-home monitoring, and non-invasive helical pile foundations, with verified up to 80% energy consumption reduction and an 85+ year CLT structural lifespan.

CABN operates a multi-channel go-to-market: direct-to-consumer e-commerce at cabn.co with transparent pricing and waitlist management, enterprise field sales targeting municipalities and developers via consultation bookings, and government-funded partnerships for the Advanced Construction Technology Training (ACTT) program and the 17-week STEP workforce development initiative in partnership with EEC Brockville. Revenue streams are predominantly one-time unit sales across residential, commercial, and municipal partnership models, supplemented by professional-services revenue from training programs. The CABN Foundation, a separate non-profit, extends the mission into affordable and Indigenous community housing. Strategic positioning is anchored by a Build Canada Homes alignment, CMHC Affordable Housing Fund access, and FSC/Net-Zero/Carbon-Negative certifications.

The business is at an early commercial stage: 11-50 employees, a Brockville manufacturing facility described as 'once operational' at 1.66 million cubic feet of annual capacity, and disclosed funding consisting of a 2024 strategic round and a 2025 $3M CAD investor raise. Customers to date are limited and relationship-driven — Augusta Township as a flagship municipal partner, National Car Rental as the first commercial client, and EEC Brockville as a training partner — placing CABN at a pre-scale inflection point rather than a volume-production stage.
