The benefits of modular construction – how much can you save?
The benefits of modular construction can be divided into three categories: design, construction and use. For designers, modularity means simplicity, as the modules integrate technical building systems, among other things. You can read more about this in our blog post on design based on modularity. In addition, prefabricated bathroom modules reduce work phases on construction […]

Improving quality, safety and cost-effectiveness in construction
Is it an impossible equation to ensure quality, speed, safety and cost management simultaneously at a construction site? No, not at all. It is definitely possible, but it requires changing the traditional construction methods and adopting new ones.

The successful completion of modernisation projects depends on open cooperation
The modernisation of buildings, or renovation construction, is often challenging. Modernisation projects are typically fast-paced and complex. This requires a great deal from the project parties: the client, the users of the facilities, the designers and the implementing parties. The modernisation of buildings is a complex puzzle where it’s important to stay on schedule and […]

Fira Modules responds to a modern construction challenge
We at Fira are inquisitive: we like to peek over the neighbour’s fence and see what we could do differently. Modular construction (don’t stop now – we’ll explain the term in more detail) has become more widespread in the world over recent years, but in Finland, things have remained quiet on this front. We sent […]
