You can enjoy many benefits by opting for prefabricated buildings rather than conventional constructions. Gone are the days when prefabricated buildings were seen as basic or make-shift structures – they are now built to such a high standard that they outperform traditional builds in terms of time and cost savings, durability, sustainability, and versatility in most cases.

If you are looking for a fast and effective way to create space or accommodate a workforce, please explore the advantages of modular constructions, especially if you are looking for a solution for a temporary site or may need to expand or move the building to another location in the future.

Prefabricated Buildings Save Time, Money, and The Environment

Module-T is a leading international prefabricated building manufacturer based in Istanbul, Turkey. We offer a wide range of prefabricated buildings and modular constructions to suit most industrial and commercial needs, all of which can be shipped to your location for assembly and use. See below six of the main benefits of using prefabricated buildings:

1. Saves Time: Prefabricated Buildings Save Time and Money

For many, the most significant reason to purchase a modular construction is the cost, as a prefabricated building can work out up to 50% cheaper than its traditional brick-built counterpart.

Due to the factory-built nature of modular construction, the building process is streamlined and optimised for savings. Bad weather delays are eliminated, and the use of top-quality materials and high technology ensures each of the panels and components is of a uniformly high quality that meets EU, US, and UK building codes.

Skilled permanent staff design, engineer, and manufacture the building, keeping labour costs down. The materials are also carefully chosen and purchased in bulk at a discount that ultimately gets passed down to the client, resulting in significant financial and time savings.

2. Reusability: Prefabricated Buildings are Portable and Can Be Relocated

If you require a building for a temporary site, such as a construction, mining, or industrial site, prefabricated buildings are the ideal solution.

The buildings are made to withstand multiple assemblies and relocations, and they can be transported for use in the most remote and challenging locations.

They arrive in a container, in an easy-to-assemble, flat-pack form and come with all the necessary fixtures, fittings and connections in place so they can be up and running quickly.

They can be stacked, linked, or joined to create the required space. They can also be dismantled easily and transported to another location as the need arises.

3. Better Materials: Prefabricated Buildings are Top-Quality Constructions

Prefabricated buildings are built to last, and all the materials used in these prefabricated structures have been tried, tested, and carefully chosen for their durability.

The materials used in building the structures differ according to their purpose and the location they will be used. Each section is produced in our controlled factory, where state-of-the-art technology ensures all elements are optimised for performance.

The sandwich panel walls are insulated and optimised for thermal and acoustic performance, the roof is made of galvanised steel with top-quality gutter-finished sheets or metal tiles, there’s a choice of exterior and interior doors, and the windows are double-glazed.

4. Less Material Waste: Sustainable Construction with Prefabricated Buildings

The highly controlled manufacturing process used to produce prefabricated buildings reduces emissions and makes them far more environmentally friendly than most traditional builds.

Waste materials are kept to a minimum, and most of the waste created can be recycled rather than end up in landfill sites. In addition, most prefab buildings only require light foundations, which reduces the impact on the landscape, allowing the site to recover quickly if the building is ever dismantled or relocated.

5. Highly Versatile: You Can Customise Prefab Buildings in Many Ways

One of the main benefits of prefabricated structures is that they can be highly customised to suit your needs. The exterior comes in a choice of colours, the interior can be styled and painted as you wish, and a wide selection of fixtures, fittings, and amendments can be made during the design process.

Depending on your location, the building can be reinforced, include additional security measures, be wired for various technology and utility connections, and be linked or stacked with other modular buildings to create extra space. For full details, please see our website.

6. Safe Construction: You Enjoy Less Onsite Disruption

Constructing a traditional building can create havoc at your site and is an obvious safety concern. Heavy machinery, storage of materials, additional staff and contractors, and bad weather delays pose a risk to existing staff. It can be many months before these dangers subside and the build reaches completion.

In contrast, prefabricated buildings are made remotely and require only minimal foundation or civil engineering work to be carried out before the building arrives. The assembly process is quick and can be completed in a few hours in many cases, significantly reducing onsite noise, risk, and disruption.
