Foremans is the UK’s leading specialist supplier of quality pre-owned Portakabin modular buildings and can supply any size and layout, up to three storeys high from stock.
We carry in stock over 25,000 sq.m of quality pre-owned Portakabin Duplex modular buildings that can be re-configured to suit your specific requirements. All of our Portakabin Duplex buildings comply with the current 2006 Part L 2A building regulations and are environmentally friendly.
Environmentally friendly
The DCLG (formally the ODPM) has accepted that modular and portable buildings have unique energy efficient properties and this is recognised and approved in the latest document L2A 2006.
A More Sustainable Method of Construction
The use of pre-owned modular buildings is a more environmentally friendly method of construction as the unique characteristics possessed by pre-owned modular buildings, are that the embodied energy required to manufacture them is transportable. The embodied energy of modular buildings are locked into their fabric. With pre-owned modular buildings, the embodied energy can be relocated along with the modules to another site.
Where a pre-owned modular or portable building is relocated with minimal alteration, the amount of energy used is less than 3% of the energy that would be required to manufacture an equivalent new building.
So whether you are looking for a small 2-module office or a large 200-module office complex, we can supply you with an environmentally friendly and competitively priced quality solution from stock.
The external envelopes of our pre-owned Portakabin modular buildings are inspected and fully refurbished. Internally, they are fitted out with new materials to produce a finished modular building that is almost as good as new.
All of our fully refurbished modular buildings benefit from 3 year product and 10 year structural warranties and are competitively priced to give you, the client, excellent value for money. We also offer guaranteed buybacks for your temporary portable buildings at the time of purchase.
Modular buildings are offered for hire or sale and can be procured through finance leasing on larger contracts.
