What Are Modular Homes?

Our modular homes are prefabricated, sustainable dwellings created by repurposing shipping containers. These homes are built off-site and assembled quickly in urban or rural areas, providing a practical and eco-friendly solution to housing needs.

Our Mission

The UK is facing a housing crisis, with rising living costs, increasing population density, and growing social inequality making it difficult for families to find affordable homes. Traditional housing solutions are falling short.

At Modu-Lite, we believe in the transformative power of modular housing. By repurposing shipping containers into sustainable, adaptable homes, we aim to provide quality housing that addresses urgent needs while building long-term community stability.

We envision a future where everyone has access to affordable, high-quality homes. Through innovation and sustainability, we’re not just building houses—we’re fostering thriving communities.

Meeting The Demand

The UK needs 150,000 new social housing units each year, but current output stands at only 4.4% of this target. Modu-Lite offers a scalable, sustainable solution to bridge this gap and support local councils in meeting their housing goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are modular homes?

At Modu-Lite, we don’t just talk about innovation—we bring it to life. Our prototype modular home is a tangible example of how sustainable design and practical functionality come together. Built with a repurposed shipping container.

Why choose modular homes over traditional construction?

Modular homes are faster to build, cost-effective, and more sustainable than traditional construction. They are produced in a controlled environment, which reduces material waste and energy consumption, and their factory assembly ensures consistent quality.

What makes Modu-Lite homes sustainable?

Our modular homes use recycled materials, such as repurposed shipping containers, and integrate renewable energy technologies, including solar panels and air source heat pumps. They are constructed to achieve high energy performance ratings (A or B EPC), which lowers energy costs and carbon emissions.

Why choose modular homes over traditional construction?

Modular homes are faster to build, cost-effective, and more sustainable than traditional construction. They are produced in a controlled environment, which reduces material waste and energy consumption, and their factory assembly ensures consistent quality.

What is the turnaround time for modular homes?

Using precision-engineered techniques, Modu-Lite can produce up to four homes per week, with the potential to increase capacity by 50% if needed. This streamlined process ensures a rapid delivery to meet urgent housing needs.

How do modular homes address the housing crisis?

The UK faces a severe social housing shortage, requiring 150,000 new units annually. Modular homes provide a scalable, cost-effective solution to bridge this gap quickly while offering quality and sustainability. Modu-Lite specifically aims to address Wales’s need for 20,000 new units annually.

How much space do modular homes require?

Each modular unit measures 20ft (L) x 8ft (W) x 9.6ft (H), making them compact enough to fit into a standard car parking space. Additional space may be required for amenities like bike storage and parking.

Are modular homes accessible?

Yes, Modu-Lite designs its homes with inclusivity in mind. Each unit includes features for disabled access, ensuring a safe and comfortable living space for all residents.

How are modular homes funded?

Our homes are primarily funded through private investment, with councils contributing existing plots of land that meet development criteria. Grants may also be utilised to support specific projects.

What is required from councils to implement modular housing?

Councils need to provide existing plots of land that are level, landscaped, and equipped with access to roads, communal lighting, and drainage. These requirements align with Section 106 of the Town & Country Planning Act 1990.
