Boxy looks at construction not how it is…but how it should be.
Why do they believe in offsite construction solutions as an alternative to the traditional construction industry?
Social innovation: the environments we work in and the spaces we live in have a profound impact on our moods and quality of life. Boxy believes that these friendly work and living spaces can be built up to 20% cheaper and more accessible than before with modular construction. [1]
Progressive employment: work in the traditional construction industry is dangerous and hard. By bringing things under one roof and streamlining construction processes, Boxy wants to create a working environment that allows for more production while having fewer work hours, accidents, and health risks.
Environmentally conscious: Modular construction has inherent environmental advantages over traditional building; benefits include reduced emissions from Jobsite travel, minimal environmental disturbance, and at least 70% less material waste. [2] Boxy takes pride in building structures with extended lifecycles.
It’s exciting: Traditional construction has run its course. Boxy is here to disrupt the industry. Striving to bring the best craftsmen together and deliver world-class products as a result. We see Boxy as a vehicle for improvement and innovation in the industry.
