Prefabricated houses for developers and housing programmes.
Single-storey homes in series — staff housing, rural housing, a first phase of a community — planned around plot sizes, local building rules and the logistics to the site.
Project scope, engineering, permissions and delivery are assessed for each destination in Europe and selected African markets. The code MOD-PH is a catalogue reference for enquiries, not a product approval.
Who typically plans this
- Developers planning a series of homes on serviced land
- Employers providing staff or worker housing
- Public or donor-funded housing programmes working through a contractor
Typical use cases
- 20 two-bedroom homes as the first phase of a development
- Staff housing beside a resort, mine or plant
- Rural housing with a repeated plan and local finishes
What is fixed and what is set per project
A row marked MODUNERA reference is a published figure of MODUNERA's units. Every other value is set by engineering for the project and confirmed in the technical offer.
| Parameter | Value | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Building system | Panelised or volumetric, chosen per project | Set per project |
| Structure | Steel frame | MODUNERA reference |
| House types | One to three bedrooms, set by the brief | Set per project |
| Insulation and climate | Specified for the climate zone | Set per project |
| Roof and wind loads | Calculated for the site | Set per project |
| Fire and accessibility | To the local code, verified by a local engineer | Set per project |
| Foundations | By site investigation | Set per project |
| Services | Electrical, plumbing and drainage to local standards | Set per project |
Which building system fits which job
Four ways to deliver a modular building. Which one a project uses depends on transport, site access, the number of units and how permanent the building is meant to be — decided in the feasibility step, not here.
| System | Suits | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Flat-pack modular | Large numbers of identical rooms shipped in compact packs: site offices, dormitories, sanitary units, storage | Assembly on site needs a trained crew; finishes are simpler than a volumetric unit; local approval of the system is a project question |
| Panelised prefabricated | Single-storey houses and buildings with a freer plan: staff housing, rural and serial housing, schools | More site work than volumetric: foundations, panel erection, roofing and finishes on site |
| Modular volumetric | Units fitted out before they leave the hall: hospitality units, homes, clinics and offices where finish quality matters | Transport size and crane access set the limits; fewer units per truck or container |
| Mobile tiny house (MD 1–MD 8) | Single premium units for private living, holiday rental and small hospitality | A mobile unit and a permanent dwelling or hotel room are different permit categories in most countries |
Three scales, as examples
Every figure here is illustrative. A real configuration follows the site, the permit and the operator's programme.
| Scale | Composition | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 20 houses | One or two repeated house types and a site layout | Illustrative |
| 80 houses | Phased delivery, two to three house types, shared infrastructure | Illustrative |
| Staff housing | Homes or shared houses beside an operation, with laundry and parking | Illustrative |
What we need from you
- Number of homes and phases
- House types and floor areas
- Plot status and masterplan
- Who builds roads, utilities and foundations
- Funding or tender stage
From brief to installation
Delivery terms (EXW, FCA, FOB, CIF, DAP or other) are agreed per project and per Incoterms edition in the contract. Nothing on this page fixes a delivery term, a price or a lead time.
- BriefYour programme, site, country, quantities and timeline.
- FeasibilityExport, customs, permits, transport and partner questions for the destination.
- Preliminary layoutModule types, counts and a schematic site arrangement.
- ProposalScope, exclusions, delivery terms and the open points.
- Engineering approvalStructure, building physics and services against the applicable local codes, by qualified engineers.
- ProductionBuilt to MODUNERA's specification once drawings and specification are signed off.
- Quality checksInspection points agreed in the contract.
- ShipmentRoad, Ro-Ro or sea freight to the agreed delivery point.
- InstallationBy MODUNERA's team, a local partner or the client's contractor — as the contract sets out.
What a site needs before a unit arrives
- Serviced plots or a plan for roads, power, water and sewerage
- Foundations by a local contractor to the engineer's design
- Building permit for the house type in the destination
- Access for delivery vehicles and lifting equipment
Whether a prefabricated house can be approved as a permanent dwelling is decided by the local building authority. No page on this site says a house can be installed without a permit.
Who does what
The same table on every solution page, because the same questions come up in every project.
| Scope line | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| Land procurement | by the client unless contracted |
| Local planning and building permits | local licensed professionals and authorities |
| Foundations and site works | scope dependent |
| Utilities and connections | scope dependent |
| Customs, duties and VAT | destination and contract dependent |
| Transport, unloading and crane | project-specific |
| Installation and warranty | contractual scope dependent |
No datasheet is published for this family yet; technical information is supplied with the offer.
Fast answers, clear limits.
Plans, facades and finishes can be adapted within the building system. What changes and what it costs is set in the proposal.
Usually not. Foundations, roads and utilities are normally local works by the developer's contractor, to the engineer's design.
No price per square metre is published for project housing. A price follows a brief, a specification and a delivery term.
