“A company is not only defined by what it builds, but by why it does it. The story of BIOBUILDS did not start with a business plan, but with a promise made to my family.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“Before I was an entrepreneur, I was a father.
And in 2010, when my son was diagnosed with asthma, I wanted only one thing: to understand what was affecting his health and how I could protect him.
Searching for answers, we discovered a shocking reality: the materials we use to build our homes release chemicals that directly affect our respiratory system, especially harming children.
When it comes to my family's health, I can't accept compromises. I knew I had to find an alternative.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“After we started this research process, I came across the second big problem of traditional construction: costs.
I realized that many homeowners pay twice for their house: first at purchase, then forever on energy bills. Becoming prisoners of their own home.
This all changed when I discovered the Passivhaus standard. I learned that energy efficiency isn't a luxury, it's a necessity. Reducing monthly costs to near-zero wasn't just a far off dream, it was achievable, today.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“After understanding the importance of health and cost, I thought I had found the perfect equation.
But in 2012, a health problem helped me see the bigger picture: it wasn't just about materials and bills, but about how we live and the impact we have.
The conclusion was simple: you cannot build a sanctuary for the family while destroying the future of the planet.
Sustainability became a central pillar, transforming a healthy and efficient home into one built in harmony with nature.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“The three directions, health, efficiency, sustainability, merged in the Ria project. Not just a house, but proof that you can have the perfect home without compromise.
The result: the world's most efficient prefabricated house, internationally recognized.
Today, Ria has become the subject of hundreds of studies and doctorates. Though it was not the end of my journey, just the beginning of BIOBUILDS: the certainty that this performance can be replicated for every family.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“The success of the RIA project gave us tremendous momentum. The mission was clear: to make this performance accessible to all families.
We tried a hybrid system, half prefabricated, half executed on site. But the reality of traditional constructions hit us hard. Subcontractors without rigor, delays, poor execution.
Factory quality was lost on the ground.
The lesson was tough but decisive: to guarantee 100% of the quality of BIOBUILDS, we must control 100% of the process.”
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
“To realize the vision, we had to make a decisive leap. We created from scratch a modular system, inspired by previously learned principles, that brings 99% of the construction to the factory. The chaos of the construction site was completely eliminated.
The result: the world's first modular system certified by Passivhaus, Darmstadt, the strictest construction standard in the world.
Proof that we can build homes that are healthy, sustainable and efficient, but above all: in scale at the highest standards.
-Alin Muste, Founder of BIOBUILDS
In 2024, after years of innovation, BIOBUILDS launched Modular in Europe. Born from a family’s struggle, BIOBUILDS proves that health, efficiency, and sustainability are accessible to all. Our story is just beginning. Let’s build the future together.
