Design and off-site fabrication

Design and Off-site fabrication is the fastest-growing development in building services installation. Simply speaking it means taking traditional processes off-site into a factory environment where they can be carried out much more efficiently using the right equipment and production processes.

Design and Off-site fabrication invariably reduces cost and project time while mitigating risk and waste at site level. Labour and skills shortages and the desire to reduce headcount on site are now driving this change even more quickly. Research shows that off-site fabrication can reduce construction time by 30%, material costs by 20%, and lower accident rates. It is no wonder that it is prooving a popular method of construction.
