Buildings built smarter, in the factory.

A1 Prefab uses precast concrete PPVC to manufacture fully-finished building modules indoors, then crane them into place on site — delivering permanent buildings up to 40 storeys, faster, safer and to a higher standard.

What is PPVC

Volumetric construction, perfected in concrete.

PPVC — Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction — produces complete room-sized concrete modules in a controlled factory, with walls, floors, finishes, plumbing and electrics already installed. Modules arrive on site up to 90% complete.

  • Structural-grade precast concrete shell
  • Finishes & services fitted in the factory
  • Craned and stacked on a prepared foundation

Why concrete PPVC

Permanent buildings, factory precision

Concrete modules combine the strength of permanent construction with the speed and control of factory manufacturing.

Up to 40 storeys

Modules stack to build permanent high-rise structures, fully compliant with permanent construction standards.

Integrated dry operation

Decoration and fit-out are completed in the factory, virtually eliminating wet trades and rework on site.

Excellent seismic performance

Reinforced concrete modules with pre-embedded steel deliver robust structural and earthquake resistance.

Superior fire resistance

Non-combustible concrete provides outstanding inherent fire ratings for occupant safety.

Outstanding sound insulation

Dense concrete mass blocks noise transfer between rooms and from outside for quiet, comfortable living.

Permanent & durable

Built to last for decades — resistant to weather, pests and decay, with low maintenance over its life.

Our concrete systems

Three ways to build in concrete

From turnkey volumetric modules to flexible panelised and post & beam structures — matched to your building type.

Volumetric

Complete, factory-finished 3D modules for turnkey occupancy — ideal for hotels, apartments and villas.

Panelized

Prefabricated panels finished on site — highly adaptable for offices and low-to-mid-rise apartments.

Post & Beam

Prefabricated frame for rapid erection with maximum design freedom — for offices and event venues.
