Canberra Hospital - Building 15

Modular is the key to faster delivery

Delivering full turnkey modular solutions through a unique 360 Degree Service, Ausco Modular guides clients throughout the entire build from start to finish by providing expert advice in design, build and installation.

Not to be confused with outdated demountable buildings, Ausco’s buildings are aesthetically pleasing and can be custom-made to suit all needs. Ausco Modular General Manager - Modular Sale, Ben Knight, said modular building solutions were becoming increasingly popular with healthcare professionals for many reasons. 

“Providing safe and healthy medical facilities is incredibly important to our healthcare clients and we have helped them achieve reduced waiting lists and greater room availability through our services,” he said. “Reducing the time spent on building new facilities means they can be operational quicker, allowing better medical services to be provided.This is a major priority for our clients and we’re proud to help them deliver on their building objectives time after time.

“Ausco Modular recently partnered with fitout and refurbishment specialists SHAPE Group to deliver and install 84 modular units for Canberra Hospital, allowing patients and medical staff to occupy the Hospital well ahead of schedule.” “Neighbouring businesses and residents also experience far less inconveniences that come with an in-situ build because there’s less traffic entering and exiting the site as tradespeople work on the building off-site.”

“The benefits of being constructed in a factory-controlled setting are vast,” he said. “Ausco Modular employs qualified tradespeople across all of our factories, all of whom are required to adhere to strict safety protocols. “Our factories have achieved ISO9001, ISO14001 and AS 4801 accreditations through independent industry regulators for quality, environmental and safety. “These allow for maximum productivity through a better quality of build, better finish and the testing of all services prior to installation.
“Weather can be unpredictable in Australia and delay in-situ builds considerably. With the majority of construction done off-site with modular buildings, unfavourable weather doesn’t impact the timeline of our builds.”

Waste and pollutants is another key consideration for healthcare professionals when it comes to building new facilities.
With modular buildings constructed off-site, minimal waste and dust is left on-site, which minimises the impact on existing facilities and patients.

With Ausco Modular’s extensive network across Australia and longstanding history of providing quality made-to-order modular buildings, it’s worthwhile considering Ausco Modular for your next healthcare build.
