What do you think are the latest global trends in prefabrication and modular construction? Is the segment becoming more important and in which contries in particular?

We clearly observe a steady growth and an enormous demand for smart modular construction which partly combines materials such as concrete and wood. In our XC product range of MMK, a joint venture of the Kirchdorfer Group together with Mayr Melnhof GmbH, we combine the best features from these two construction materials. Modular construction is not a new concept. For years, it has been existing in different forms and with different materials. Nevertheless it is necessary to cope with the individual plans of each customer and project. Different construction cultures have been created in Europe which can only partially be served by the modular construction and the adjustments cannot be made overnight. Due to increasing costs, is standardisation one of the greatest solution nowadays.
