Why modular construction is a game-changer for Canada's housing crisis

from Hub Podcasts

Adam Beattie, president of ATCO Structures, argues that modular construction can tackle the housing market's three biggest challenges: speed, scale, and affordability. He explains how ATCO's facilities can produce homes much faster and at a far greater scale than traditional construction, and why this approach has the potential to significantly expand Canada's housing supply.
