Europe’s construction industry is grappling with a significant labour shortage, with a forecasted need for over 7 million jobs within the next 15 years. Industry experts are addressing this challenge with modular construction solutions, which have proven to deliver exceptional efficiency. For instance, Modula’s modular techniques at Sir John Rogerson’s Quay cut on-site labour requirements by up to 60%, resulting in substantial time savings throughout the project.

In France, the newly enacted RE2020 (Environmental Regulation 2020) mandates higher environmental standards for buildings across their entire lifecycle—from sourcing materials to construction, usage, and even decommissioning. Aligned with these regulations, modular construction methods can reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions by up to 50%, supporting the French government’s drive for eco-friendly building practices. By reducing carbon emissions and minimizing environmental impact, modular construction offers a sustainable alternative to traditional methods.

The Paris 2024 Athletes Village exemplifies this sustainable approach, with over 45% of its structures made from timber and large sections prefabricated and assembled on-site. This innovative project highlights how modular techniques can achieve rapid assembly without compromising quality, creating sustainable and high-quality living spaces.
