We have decades of experience bringing the numerous benefits of modular construction to the healthcare sector.
Modular buildings
Modular construction is the process of using modules manufactured in a factory environment which are transported to site and connected together to form a complete building. This method of construction has many advantages over traditional build techniques.
Our modular buildings can be adapted to almost any sector or requirement.
These include:
Healthcare
Education & childcare
We deliver exceptional modern learning spaces designed to stimulate and nurture young minds.
Leisure
We can deliver attractive multi-functional facilities which can include sports halls & gymnasiums.
Office & retail
We can deliver commercial space such as offices offering you the flexibility to adapt, survive and thrive.
Industrial
Our modular buildings can be adapted for use at industrial, utilities, manufacturing and transport sites.
Custodial & justice
We can deliver multiple options for this sector including PCflex custody cell solutions.
Construction
We can provide accommodation to house workers at large construction and infrastructure projects, providing multiple functions such as welfare and office space.
Ministry of Defence (MOD)
The MOD have benefited from our cost effective accommodation over a wide variety of applications.
What modular construction means to us
Net zero 2040
We recognise the urgency of climate change as a global crisis. Our commitment to achieving net zero by 2040 goes beyond more than just complying with our legal requirements; it is embedded in everything we do.

Here are some FAQs about modular buildings
Modular buildings are structures manufactured off-site in a controlled factory environment, before being transported to site and assembled. This approach allows building modules to be produced while site preparation works take place, reducing programme times and improving quality control.
Modular buildings can be either permanent or temporary, depending on project requirements. Permanent modular buildings are designed for long-term use, while hire or relocatable buildings provide flexible solutions for short-term or changing needs.
Yes, modular buildings are designed and constructed to comply with UK Building Regulations, including fire safety, structural performance and energy efficiency standards. They are subject to the same requirements as traditional buildings.
Modular construction can significantly reduce project timelines, as manufacturing takes place off-site alongside site preparation. This parallel process can enable buildings to be delivered faster than traditional construction methods.
Yes, as much of the construction process takes place off-site, there is less on-site activity, reducing noise, vehicle movements and disruption. This is particularly beneficial for projects within live environments such as schools, hospitals and operational facilities.
Modular construction can support sustainability goals by reducing material waste, improving energy efficiency and minimising site-related emissions. Factory-controlled processes also allow for more efficient use of materials.
