The industrialized construction method by CompactHabit allows for up to a 70% reduction in construction time compared to traditional building methods. But how is this time reduction achieved, and how can projects be completed faster?

Modular Construction: Parallel Production to Optimize Time

Modular construction enables simultaneous work at both the factory and the construction site, maximizing efficiency and shortening project timelines. While excavation, foundation work, and underground installations are carried out on-site, CompactHabit’s factory manufactures fully equipped and finished 3D modules, ready to be transported and assembled on-site.

This optimized process ensures that on-site and factory work progress in parallel, preventing unnecessary delays and speeding up project completion.

  1. Simultaneous Work in the Factory and on the Construction Site

On-site work: Excavation, foundation work, and underground utility installations.

  1. Transportation and Assembly

The modules are transported to the construction site and assembled to form the modular building.
