Residential (Apartments And Villas)

Smarter Living Starts with Smarter Building

In residential projects, on-site challenges like varying skill levels can lead to quality control issues and delays. Modulex addresses these risks with a factory-first approach, ensuring consistency, speed, and precision across urban apartments and private villas. If a volumetric solution isn't feasible, our panelized approach offers architectural freedom while maintaining the advantages of modular construction.

Configurations

Tailored to Project Needs

Modulex layouts strike a balance between standardisation and flexibility, enabling developers to repeat units for faster builds or customise them for site-specific architectural needs.

Configuration 1: Apartment Blocks

Layout Approach

Standardised volumetric modules repeated across floors.

pods include

Bathroom Pods (approx. 2m x 2.5m, configurable)
Kitchen Pods (typically galley layout)

Key Advantage

Repeatable layouts accelerate design approvals and reduce on-site build time.

Configuration 2: Villas

Layout Approach

Flexible kit-of-parts system combining pods and panels for custom spatial planning.

pods include

Interior layouts
Facade materials
Room arrangements

Key Advantage

Supports architectural individuality while maintaining the speed and control of modular delivery.

Delivery Timeline

Accelerated Project Timelines

Modulex projects are engineered for speed without compromising quality. The earlier we engage with you, the more efficiently we can align designs and production with your project milestones, often reducing total build timelines by up to 40%.

Phase 1: Early Design Engagement

Begins at the pre-construction stage. Clients consult with Modulex to align modular strategy with site plans.

Phase 2: Standardisation of Layouts

Faster delivery is achieved by using pre-approved volumetric or pod configurations.

Phase 3: Manufacturing

Production takes place off-site, scheduled to match your site's readiness milestones.

Phase 4: On-site Installation

Completed modules are craned in and connected quickly, reducing dependency on on-site labour.

Our modular approach ensures circular, net-zero construction meeting ESG goals without sacrificing speed, quality, or ROI.

Up to 30% reduction in material waste

Lower site footprint and disruption

Airtight envelopes cut operational energy by 30%

FAQ

Everything You Want to Know About Building Smart

How do you ensure quality control in volumetric modular construction?

Since modules are pre-fabricated in a factory setting, quality control is embedded in the process. This ensures modules are delivered to specification and assemble correctly on-site.

What are the challenges of transportation and logistics?

Volumetric modules are large and heavy, which means they need to be transported to the construction site.   A logistics survey is done at the beginning of the design process to ensure this methodology is suitable. (Specialist vehicles and optimal routes are used). Transportation and any road restrictions being addressed early.   If Volumetric modular isn't feasible then a design utilising Panels and Pods will be suggested, which compliments traditional on site construction by speeding up the process with prefabricated building components.

How does volumetric modular construction address local building codes and regulations?

What is the long-term durability and performance of modular buildings?

Since modular buildings are often assembled off-site and then transported to their final location, there can be skepticism about how they will stand up over time compared to traditionally built structures. Steel modular buildings have the equivalent if not superior performance of a traditionally built building. Steel has a much higher strength to weight ratio than traditional materials which also makes it lower in embodied carbon. The steel in a primary structure can also be recycled. Proper maintenance is also key to extending the life of all buildings, including modular structures.

How do costs compare between Volumetric Modular and Traditional Construction?

Volumetric construction can have higher up front costs initially however because the overall programme is faster because much of the work is done off-site in factories, developers can finish projects sooner, start earning revenue, and reduce financing costs. Traditional builds take longer, delaying returns. Faster Build Time = Quicker ROI Volumetric construction offers more predictability . Fewer weather delays and less reliance on local labor means lower risks of cost overruns. Traditional construction faces more external factors that can increase costs and timelines. Volumetric construction provides faster completion, reduced risks, lower costs, and quicker returns. These factors make it a strong choice for developers aiming to maximize ROI.
