Premier Modular<\/a> has achieved BOPAS accreditation for its modular living solutions, after its expansion into the residential sector<\/h2>\n

BOPAS accreditation \u2013 the Buildoffsite Property Assurance Scheme<\/a> \u2013 is the industry benchmark to give funders, principal mortgage lenders, valuers, and purchasers the confidence that homes built using offsite construction will have a life of at least 60 years.<\/p>\n

It also demonstrates the integrity of the offsite system, consistent delivery, and long-term performance to specification.<\/p>\n

Premier specialises in the offsite construction of affordable, sustainable and fast-track apartments, studios and multi-occupancy buildings for social housing<\/a>, build-to-rent, schemes to address homelessness, hotels, and student accommodation.<\/p>\n

\u2018A standards-led benchmark for modular housing\u2019<\/h3>\n

Jeff Maxted of BOPAS and director of BLP Technical Services (UK), said: \u201cIt is fantastic to see Premier\u2019s expansion into the residential sector, building on their vast experience in other areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cBOPAS is an independent, standards-led benchmark for modular housing<\/a>, providing long-term assurance to lenders and valuers that homes built using non-traditional methods of construction offer longevity and reliability.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dan Allison, director of Premier Modular, commented: \u201cWe are immensely proud to receive this industry accreditation which reinforces our expansion into the residential sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cBOPAS provides our local authority and developer clients as well as funders and mortgage lenders with complete reassurance of best practice and that our modular apartment solutions meet or exceed the required standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have ambitious plans to bring innovation and sustainability to the\u00a0UK\u00a0housing\u00a0market. We already have a number of residential projects on site and nearing completion and are receiving a high level of enquiries for new schemes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe anticipate the demand for offsite construction<\/a> will continue to increase to help address the housing crisis and the drive for net zero.\u201d<\/p>\n

Allison added: \u201cWe offer a range of modular solutions for low to mid-rise apartment developments, and the speed of offsite manufacturing will help to reduce housing waiting lists.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have also successfully demonstrated the structural stability of our building system beyond 15 storeys, giving our customers even greater confidence in our design and construction capabilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe residential sector is facing considerable challenges \u2013 from the shortage of skilled labour to the need for increased productivity and improved quality in housebuilding to meet the rising demand for new homes.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy moving the construction of new apartment schemes offsite and into a more controllable factory environment, we can produce energy-efficient homes with less impact on the environment, to reduced programmes, and significantly enhanced quality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Premier has been awarded full BOPAS accreditation<\/a> for design, manufacturing and construction.<\/p>\n

A rigorous assessment was carried out by BOPAS, which audited all aspects of Premier\u2019s operations, including quality control systems, health and safety, project management, and interfaces, from design through to offsite manufacture, construction, and handover.<\/p>\n
