The humble portable cabin has come a long way. We launched two innovative, modular pods at Plan Expo Exhibition in the RDS in November 2007. The new pods are complete bedroom and living space units and mark a mile stone in Modular Buildings.

They are constructed off-site by our partners McAvoy Off-Site Solutions and delivered to a construction site fully furnished, decorated and with a cladded weather-proof exterior.

The first two models are aimed at new hotel developments and the student accommodation market. Further models intended for social housing and nursing homes are planned.

The pods, which are the first available on the market feature fully finished interiors and exteriors. They can be erected on their own or with other pods, be temporary or permanent, and may also be built in conjunction with bricks and mortar to create ‘hybrid’ buildings. In addition, they are fully plumbed and wired, featuring insulation that meets the standard of new conventional buildings and complies with all the latest environmental legislation.

The Pods are currently on show at our Cork depot.
