Advantages of Off-Site Solutions

There’s a paradigm shift occurring in the construction industry. Environmentally friendly practices are now the top priority.

`Auburn Group are frontrunners in sustainable Construction.`

Auburn Construction, a company committed to innovation, has embraced modern methods of construction (MMC) with off-site solutions at the heart of the vision. Adopting these techniques has positioned Auburn well to shape the industry revolution.

Auburn’s part in the new way is not just because of the technical expertise. Community spirit is always key to our thinking. These two crucial aspects have mitigated disruption to local traffic and minimised the carbon footprint. Let’s take a look at how.

Reducing Carbon Emissions:

Traditional construction methods cause an upturn in carbon emissions with excessive transportation of materials involved. Auburn Construction’s off-site solution significantly reduces this negative aspect. It reduces local traffic disruption as well as minimising air pollution with fewer trips being made.

`Our timber frames significantly reduce our carbon footprint.`

Auburn go further than this though! We use a timber frame, the most carbon-friendly structural frame in the industry. Moving away from cold rolled steel, reinforced concrete & masonry structures substantially reduces our fossil fuel usage, benefitting clients, customers, and the environment.

Reduced need for skilled workers:

There is a vast labour shortage currently, and using our off-site methodology navigates past this industry issue. It relieves pressure on our deadlines.

Energy Efficiency:

Working off-site gives Auburn greater control over energy consumption during the construction process. It’s allowed us to reduce operational costs and aid the environment.

Auburn Construction leverages pre-fabrication techniques to optimise energy usage, employing advanced insulation materials and efficient systems.

Minimal Disruption to the Local Area:
One of the key advantages of off-site solutions is the reduced disruption caused to the surrounding community. With fewer workers and on-site equipment, noise levels are significantly lower than traditional construction methods. This reduction in noise pollution translates to a more peaceful and harmonious living environment for nearby residents.

Additionally, off-site manufacturing helps minimise dust, dirt, spillages, and waste accumulation, enhancing the overall cleanliness of the area. The faster build also means fewer journeys for workers and deliveries.

`Our solutions will reduce your carbon footprint.`

Alleviating Local Traffic Congestion

Construction sites pose challenges related to parking and HGV delivery equipment. Auburn Construction avoids both by working off-site. Our manufacturing facilities being elsewhere allows traffic flow to remain virtually untouched by our presence.

The reduction of HGV lessens damage to carriageways and footpaths and has allowed. Consequently, Councils can cut expenditures on fixing roads and spend much-needed money elsewhere and improve local people’s lives.

Sustainability

Manufacturing in a controlled weathertight environment minimises risks associated with damage from adverse weather conditions. This avoids waste associated with possible rework due to incorrect production and errors in detailing and finishing.

Our advanced manufacturing machinery and software cut schedules and, therefore, waste. They also increase the opportunity for recycling off-cut materials at source. As a result, we can identify and segregate waste streams for reuse and recycling.

Enhanced Health and Safety:

Off-site solutions contribute to improved health and safety standards. During drop-off and pick-up times at nearby schools, the reduced presence of construction activities on-site reduces potential hazards, making the area safer for pedestrians, children, and other road users. By adopting off-site manufacturing, Auburn Construction prioritises the community's well-being while delivering efficiently.

Working at height is the industry’s biggest cause of accidents and fatalities. Our off-site solution tempers this predicament considerably.

Other benefits include the reduction of occupational health risks such as noise, dust and vibration exposure.

Sustainable Construction Practices:

Auburn Construction's commitment to sustainability extends beyond its reduced environmental impact. By employing off-site solutions, the company utilises innovative technologies and sustainable materials manufactured off-site.

This practice ensures a more efficient use of resources, reducing waste and contributing to a circular economy. Moreover, we can complete projects in record time with minimal disruption to the sustainable construction practices and the Local Communities in which we work.
