A MODUNERA unit — real photograph, not a prefabricated houses
MODUNERA · MOD-PH · Prefabricated houses

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-specific concept — subject to engineering and capacity confirmation
Scope

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 this is for

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
Technical outline

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.

Systems

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.

SystemSuitsLimits
Flat-pack modularLarge numbers of identical rooms shipped in compact packs: site offices, dormitories, sanitary units, storageAssembly on site needs a trained crew; finishes are simpler than a volumetric unit; local approval of the system is a project question
Panelised prefabricatedSingle-storey houses and buildings with a freer plan: staff housing, rural and serial housing, schoolsMore site work than volumetric: foundations, panel erection, roofing and finishes on site
Modular volumetricUnits fitted out before they leave the hall: hospitality units, homes, clinics and offices where finish quality mattersTransport 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 hospitalityA mobile unit and a permanent dwelling or hotel room are different permit categories in most countries
Typical configurations

Three scales, as examples

Every figure here is illustrative. A real configuration follows the site, the permit and the operator's programme.

Process

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.

  1. BriefYour programme, site, country, quantities and timeline.
  2. FeasibilityExport, customs, permits, transport and partner questions for the destination.
  3. Preliminary layoutModule types, counts and a schematic site arrangement.
  4. ProposalScope, exclusions, delivery terms and the open points.
  5. Engineering approvalStructure, building physics and services against the applicable local codes, by qualified engineers.
  6. ProductionBuilt to MODUNERA's specification once drawings and specification are signed off.
  7. Quality checksInspection points agreed in the contract.
  8. ShipmentRoad, Ro-Ro or sea freight to the agreed delivery point.
  9. InstallationBy MODUNERA's team, a local partner or the client's contractor — as the contract sets out.
Site readiness and permissions

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
Country rules

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.

Buyer FAQ

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.
