Ausco Modular | Temporary buildings

Smart space solutions with minimal environmental impact

Temporary modular buildings offer numerous advantages, such as a reduced environmental footprint, adaptability, and rapid deployment.

By choosing to hire a portable building from Ausco Modular, our customers gain the ability to adjust on-site infrastructure according to their needs, with minimal construction involved. Depending on the specific project needs, connecting to existing services like water, electricity, and sewerage can be easily achieved.

When Ripley Valley Football Club, situated west of Brisbane in Ipswich, joined Football Queensland's grassroots competition in 2018, it became evident that adequate unisex compliant facilities were necessary on-site to accommodate games and visitors.

Ausco Modular's Brisbane team collaborated with various stakeholders, including local Ipswich City Council, to provide a sustainable long-term hire solution. This comprised of two changerooms, a shower block for both home and away teams, a referee/officials’ room, along with an ablution facility with ramp access, and a male/female toilet block.

These facilities were to remain on-site until Ausco and Ipswich City Council could jointly develop a permanent solution to accommodate the club's growing membership base.

Manufactured locally in Riverview, Ipswich, the new clubhouse facility, which was handed over to Council earlier this year, features multiple changerooms with unisex compliant cubicle shower facilities, public amenities including facilities for individuals with disabilities, umpire amenities, office and meeting spaces, and a high-quality commercial canteen.

The grassroots club is taking full advantage of their new home base, hosting matches, education and community sessions via their new Ausco Modular facility. Read more about the project here.

Ausco's smart space solutions can be modified and reconfigured to adapt to the changing requirements of our customers, with units easily moved or adapted as the needs of our customers and communities evolve.

Ipswich City Council requested the temporary buildings be relocated to a nearby parklands project for further use. Ausco's construction team demobilised the buildings from the site and re-turfed the space, returning it to pre-building condition. Is it time to upgrade, expand or move your modular building?

Temporary transportable buildings require very little ground penetration, meaning the site has minimal environmental impacts during and after use.

The site has been returned to pre-building condition.

Once our building modules reach the end of their economic lifespan, they undergo either resale to extend their utility or disassembly into constituent parts, with an impressive 96% of materials being recyclable. Our primary goal is to perpetuate the value of materials and resources indefinitely, minimising residual waste.

At Ausco Modular, our commitment is centered on creating smart space solutions to work, learn or stay, guided by principles of circularity and sustainability.
