What are permanent modular buildings?

If you have been searching for a building solution that marries speed with quality, flexibility with cost-effectiveness then permanent modular construction might just be the answer. This innovative approach to building skips the traditional on-site construction process. Instead we craft your entire structure in our controlled factory setting.

Imagine sections:

  • meticulously designed
  • built with high-quality materials
  • arriving at your site ready for seamless assembly. 

Undeniable benefits of permanent modular

  • streamlined project timelines
  • predictable costs
  • minimal site disruption
  • flexibility to design a space that suits your exact needs, whether permanent or temporary.

No longer do you have to sacrifice one for the other. This isn’t just about speed; it’s about delivering exceptional performance, environmental sustainability, and an overall building experience that surpasses expectations. Elite Systems will deliver your dream space, delivered, built to last, and ready to inspire for years to come.

Revolutionising buildings with permanent modular solutions

Elite Systems is at the forefront of innovative and sustainable construction across the UK with our permanent modular building solutions. We harness the power of modularity to offer faster, greener, and more cost-effective alternatives to traditional brick-and-mortar methods.

Whether you’re expanding your school, enhancing your business space, or delivering vital healthcare services, Elite Systems delivers exceptional results.

What are the benefits of permanent modular over traditional build?

1. Quick occupancy, minimising disruption

Our prefabricated modules, constructed in controlled factory environments, reduce onsite construction time by up to 50%. This means schools can open classrooms sooner, businesses can operate swiftly, and healthcare facilities can be up and running without delay.

2. Predictable costs and streamlined planning

Unlike traditional builds with potential overruns and delays, modular construction offers fixed pricing and streamlined planning processes. Each module is precisely engineered and budgeted, minimising risk and ensuring complete transparency for your project.

3. Exceptional quality and durability

Made with robust materials and adhering to stringent UK building regulations, permanent modular buildings offer exceptional longevity and resilience. They withstand the changeable UK weather, ensuring lasting value for your investment.

4. Minimised environmental impact

Our off-site construction process significantly reduces waste generation compared to traditional build methods. Additionally, sustainable materials and energy-efficient features further contribute to a greener building footprint, aligning with UK environmental goals.

5. Versatile and adaptable

Modular buildings are not one-size-fits-all. We offer a wide range of module sizes and configurations, allowing you to design a building that perfectly meets your specific needs and aesthetic preferences, seamlessly integrating into UK planning regulations.

What our clients say

I would rank Elite as one of the top contractors we’ve ever worked with… the responses that Elite have given us over that time to changes and challenges has been second to none.
