by The global Modular Construction Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 84.48 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
Modular construction refers to a process in which structures are designed and built off-site, in sections, using the same designs and materials. These pre-fabricated modules are then transported and assembled at the construction site. Modular construction offers advantages such as faster construction, cost-effectiveness, reduced wastage, and consistent quality. It is increasingly being adopted for residential and commercial construction to meet the rising demand for affordable housing and infrastructure development. Some key product types in the modular construction market include permanent modular buildings and relocatable modular buildings. Permanent modular buildings are designed for longer-term use, while relocatable buildings can be transported and reused at multiple sites.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends in the modular construction market is the growing adoption of mass customization. Modular construction allows for mass customization where modules and designs can be combined and customized as per a client’s needs in terms of size, layout, and features. This enables developers and builders to offer personalized housing options to customers while retaining production efficiencies of modular construction. Another key trend is the development of affordable modular homes. With the rising housing shortage, modular construction is playing a crucial role in providing cost-effective housing. Companies are investing in research to develop modular designs that can significantly reduce construction costs and time for affordable homes. Sustainability is also a major focus area, with many builders opting for greener building materials, renewable energy integration, and sustainable waste management practices in modular construction.
