MMC (Modern Methods of Construction)

The nominations for the 2022 Northern Housing Awards are now officially open – and this year, they’re bigger than ever.

Cornwall Council has entered into a deal to buy SoloHaus ‘micro homes’ from Hill Group in a bid to tackle homelessness and the housing crisis.

The rise, measured by looking at manufacturers’ sales prices, coincides with an increase in the capacity for offsite housing manufacturing.

The development marks the first time Cardiff Council has used this kind of offsite construction to deliver permanent homes for families in the city.

123 MMC homes are being delivered as a result of collaboration between Abri, Homes England, Keepmoat, and ilke Homes.

All new homes delivered through the project will have an EPC rating of 105/100, placing them beyond the carbon neutral threshold.
