Estilo utilises Unitized modular construction as an innovative, sustainable delivery method utilising offsite, lean manufacturing techniques to prefabricate stand alone multi-story building solutions for any accommodation facility. Modules are delivered with mechanical, electrical and plumbing installed. Fixtures and fittings and interior finishes completed in less time – with less waste and higher quality control compared to projects constructed traditionally. The building design and aesthetics are not compromised when choosing unitized construction as the majority of designs are “modularized” to capture the design intent.
Structurally, unitized buildings are generally stronger than conventional construction as each module is engineered to independently withstand the rigors of transportation and craning onto foundations. Once together and sealed, the modules become one integrated wall, floor and roof assembly.
Building off site ensures better construction quality management. Materials are delivered to our factory and are safely and securely stored to prevent damage or deterioration. Estilo have stringent QA/QC programs with independent inspection and testing protocols that promote superior quality of construction at every step of the way.
Beyond quality management and improved completion time, unitized construction offers numerous other benefits to developers and builders. Reducing over 60% of the building construction activity from the site, significantly reduces site disruption, vehicular traffic to the local environment and improves safety and security.
For architects and developers alike, we can work with levels of design and construction sophistication that will exceed all expectations. It is beneficial that when exploring the various project delivery methods, off-site construction needs to be chosen early in the design and development process so the project built around that methodology will avoid any redesigning. Our design team can view your designs and create a modular solution so it is never too late to explore the possibilities.
As builders, developers and designers we look for sustainable designs which have an improved environmental impact. Building in a controlled environment reduces waste. This along with improved quality management throughout the construction process and significantly less on-site activity and disturbance inherently promotes sustainability.
