Why Modular Construction

Modular Construction: Smarter, More Efficient Delivery

Modular construction shifts key elements of MEP delivery into a controlled manufacturing environment, reducing site variables and ensuring reliable, repeatable outcomes.

For clients in fast-moving sectors such as Data Centres, Energy, Renewables, and Life Sciences, modular methodologies offer:

  • Faster installation and reduced time on site
  • Higher, more consistent quality through precision manufacturing
  • Improved safety with fewer hours in live environments
  • Programme certainty and reduced schedule risk
  • Greater efficiency across procurement, logistics, and delivery
Modern modular manufacturing facility in Kells with advanced fabrication lines supporting high-volume MEP production and quality control.

Our New Modular Manufacturing Facility

To meet growing demand, Designer Group has invested €10 million in a 4,000 sqm Modular Manufacturing Facility in Kells, Co. Meath, creating 75 new jobs and expanding our modular capability across Ireland, the UK, Europe, and beyond.

Equipped with modern fabrication lines, specialist assembly areas, and advanced testing bays, the facility allows us to deliver high-volume, repeatable modular solutions with full control over quality, safety, and production timelines.

Offsite modular construction supporting sustainable building delivery with reduced waste, lower emissions and efficient resource use.

A Smarter, More Sustainable Way to Build

Modular construction supports Designer Group’s commitment to efficiency and sustainability. By manufacturing off-site, we reduce waste, optimise materials, minimise rework, and lower site emissions, helping clients meet their sustainability and Net Zero goals.

Delivering Modular Excellence Across Sectors. Our modular solutions support major projects in:

  • Hyperscale and co-location data centres
  • Energy and power generation
  • Renewable infrastructure
  • Life Sciences and high-compliance environments
  • Commercial and building services projects
DfMA-led modular design approach optimising offsite production, installation and long-term performance for complex construction projects.

Partner with Designer Group

Effective modular construction starts with intelligent design. We embed Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) principles from the outset, ensuring solutions are optimised for offsite production, transport, installation and long-term operation.

With expanded modular capability, a new manufacturing facility, and over 30 years of M&E expertise, Designer Group delivers faster, smarter, and more reliable projects.

Our modular construction approach enhances planning, building, and integration, helping clients deliver with confidence in the most demanding environments.

Designer Group is certified to ISO 19650:2018, confirming compliant BIM led delivery of mechanical and electrical systems across the asset lifecycle.
