In New Zealand, modular construction have been increasingly gaining prominence especially in the aftermath of natural disasters due to its flexibility and relocatability, which can serve as effective temporary housing solutions for displaced residents. Modular construction and pre-fabrication techniques will no longer only be a solution as temporary buildings for disaster recovery but it also emerges as one of the most brilliant ideas to construct buildings in a faster, smarter and cost-effective way. Besides being able to mitigate the housing crisis New Zealand is facing, modularization and pre-fabrication methods are also able to reduce costs and offset cost savings to consumers to bring down property prices.

Join us at the New Zealand Modular Construction and Pre-Fabrication Conference in Auckland, New Zealand from 5 – 7 December 2016 and explore how modular construction will shape the future of New Zealand’s construction landscape as well as ways to tackle emerging challenges for tomorrow. You will also discover high-growth sectors which you can tap into and achieve growth and gain crucial competitive advantage through effective adoption of off-site construction techniques.
