Every material, brand, and grade — locked before construction begins.
Your Material DNA is the contractual specification behind your segment: exactly what goes into your build, documented in writing, before ground is broken.
Documentation replaces "trust me."
Every material, brand, grade, and process is contractually documented before construction begins. This DNA-locked system is what makes Apex’s 11-segment pricing possible — and what makes substitution impossible.
Grade-level precision
Steel, cement, and finishing materials are named to their exact grade — not described as "high quality" or "premium."
Cross-checked on arrival
Materials are checked against the Material DNA specification when they reach site, before use is approved.
“ We use the TMT steel grade specified exclusively, cross-verified through our material selection checks. We do not substitute specified brands.
This is how we speak about materials — in data, grades, and named brands. Not "high-strength premium iron rods from reputable local vendors."
The grade progression, in full view
Every step up in segment is a step up in engineering grade — not just finish quality. Here is exactly how the structural specification scales across Residential and Luxury.
| Segment | Cement | Steel | Concrete | Masonry | Floor Height |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | PPC | Fe450D | M20/M25 | Fly-ash brick | 10 ft |
| Standard | OPC 43 | Fe500D | M25 | Fly-ash brick | 10.5 ft |
| Premium | OPC 53 | Fe550D | M25/M30 | AAC block | 11.5–12 ft |
| Prestige | OPC 53 | Fe550D | M30 | AAC block | 12 ft |
| Luxury Signature | OPC 53 | Fe550D/600 | M30/M35 | AAC Premium | 12.5 ft |
| Luxury Elite | OPC 53 | Fe550D/600 | M30/M35 | AAC Premium | 12.5 ft |
| Luxury Imperial | OPC 53+ | Fe600+ | M35/M40 | Porotherm clay | Custom |
All grades comply with relevant IS codes (IS 456, IS 1786, IS 1489, IS 12269). Specific vendor brands for each project are confirmed in your signed Material DNA contract.
