Green Buildings

With the increased awareness of green construction practices, there is a growing acceptance of the environmental advantages of the modular construction process.

Think of modular construction as more of a process than a facility type. The same materials are used in modular construction as in conventional projects—wood, concrete, and steel.

Modular facilities are also built to the same codes and specifications as conventional construction—just built off-site in a quality-controlled environment. Due to this process, several “green” advantages result. Here are a few:

• Reduced environmental impact on the site
• Fewer materials waste in landfills
• Labor and resource efficiency
