Architects, owners and developers are becoming increasingly aware of the sustainable benefits of the modular construction process. With greater numbers of government agencies and end users requiring facilities to meet energy-efficient performance standards, such as LEED™ or CHPS™, modular construction can offer significant advantages over stick-built construction.
In fact, many companies in the modular industry recycle entire buildings for different applications. Renovated reuse describes a module or modules that have been renovated to make up the core space of a new facility. Green construction offers significant material and waste savings.
