Construction projects are replete with examples of a lack of control and certainty, including overruns in cost and delivery times, quality control issues, increases in skill shortages, and reduced productivity. This challenge is compounded by an aging building stock and a growing population.
Eliminating the one-off nature of building design and delivery without compromising on flexibility and architecture. Utilizing a fully integrated design and built pre-approved solution, transitioning the industry from classic construction ‘Projects’ to offsite precision-manufactured Products.
DNH in partnership with Modular X, offers a range of services to support our clients, ranging from product development and integrated design services to a full turn-key design and build solution. This comprehensive package includes financing, obtaining statutory approvals, and providing facility management aftercare. Our unique approach, combining a product-focused solution with a fully integrated turn-key offering, results in a significantly reduced program while maintaining control and certainty. Within our model, we integrate our in-house expert team and our best-in-class strategic partners, including the largest global manufacturer pre-approved for our product range, ready to deploy globally.
DNH partner, Modular X, has licensed its product technology to a significant national healthcare system for the delivery of a framework exceeding €2 billion, covering wards, theatres, selective hospitals, etc. The impact of this product-led modular approach will significantly reduce the strain on healthcare services by streamlining building delivery, cutting nearly two-thirds of the time compared to their most recent classic design and construction projects.
With up to 90% of construction completed off-site, modular overbuilds drastically reduce on-site activity, noise, and disruption. This makes it ideal for occupied buildings, such as offices, hospitals, and residential complexes, where business continuity and safety are critical.
Using advanced manufacturing techniques, modular units are built to exact specifications, ensuring high-quality standards and compliance. Off-site precision engineering eliminates common on-site construction errors and ensures that modules seamlessly integrate with existing structures.
Modular construction utilizes lightweight, high-strength materials, reducing structural loads and minimizing the need for costly foundation reinforcement. This makes it possible to add new floors to older buildings that may not have been originally designed for vertical expansion.
Traditional construction projects often face budget overruns and unpredictable delays due to weather, material shortages, and labor challenges. Modular construction provides a fixed-cost solution with faster, more predictable delivery timelines, reducing financial and operational risks.
Every modular overbuild is meticulously planned using Digital Twin technology, creating a virtual replica of the existing building and proposed extension. This allows for accurate coordination, clash detection, and real-time adjustments, ensuring a perfect fit and optimized structural compatibility before installation begins.
By manufacturing in a controlled factory environment, modular construction minimizes material waste and optimizes resource use. Additionally, modules can be designed for energy efficiency, incorporating sustainable materials and smart building systems to reduce long-term operational costs.
