5 Reasons to Choose a Modular Office for Your Business

However, this is a major investment for any business owner and there are a number of factors that should first be considered.

If build quality and keeping within a limited budget are priorities, we believe there is no better option than modular offices. Still on the fence about it? Here are five compelling reasons why modular offices could provide the ideal setting for your business to thrive:

Affordability and Value

Commissioning a modular office as opposed to a traditionally-built office is very affordable and can translate to significant savings.

If you choose to commission a modular office as opposed to a bricks-and-mortar premises, you will typically save between 10-35% on build costs alone. Shorter construction timescales, lower design costs and less disruption on site can allow you to save even more.

Some modular construction companies even offer quality refurbished buildings, which can cut setup time and costs to an absolute minimum!

Excellent Build Quality and Resilience

Modern modular buildings are renowned for their build quality and durability. One of the major advantages to building an office’s modular components in a dedicated factory setting is that build quality can be closely monitored.

Furthermore, any building materials and completed modules can be stored securely at the factory until the site is prepared for assembly. This helps to avoid weather damage, which can also harm the quality and integrity of the finished structure.

Versatility

One of the most attractive advantages modular construction offers over other methods is its sheer versatility. Firstly, today’s modular buildings can be used for a whole host of applications - from offices, to sports facilities, retail spaces, canteens, medical centres and even accommodation. So, if your business model changes, your modular buildings can easily be repurposed.

And secondly, your modular buildings can be altered, built upon, or even transported to an entirely new location with relative ease. This would present a considerably larger challenge where bricks-and-mortar structures are concerned - and, in many cases, may not be feasible at all!

Improved Air Quality

Regardless of the industry in which you operate, ensuring good air quality at your office is essential to the health and wellbeing of anyone using or visiting the premises. One of the leading causes of indoor air quality problems are related to high levels of moisture within structures’ framing materials.

However, any such issues can usually be avoided by opting for modular construction. As modular offices are constructed in a controlled factory setting with dry materials, the risk of excess moisture becoming trapped within these materials is much lower.

An Eco-friendly Option

If you want to bolster your business’ green credentials, commissioning a modular office space may be a step in the right direction. After all, modular construction is one of the most sustainable methods available.

The shorter build times and sustainable construction process help to reduce the amount of waste that goes to landfill. What’s more, as the construction process mostly takes place in a factory setting, which is ideal for streamlining energy consumption.

Minimal Disruption to Your Business

With traditional construction projects, your work can be significantly hampered by the build process and may even need to stop completely for parts of it. Conversely, this isn’t an issue with modular projects, given that the lion’s share of the construction process takes place at an off-site location. As such, any disruption to your day-to-day operations will be kept to a minimum.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
