Expansion or relocation of production space often occurs in response to a change in demand, which makes the flexible modular and portable solutions from Portakabin the perfect solution.
Clear, spacious areas, ready in weeks
The generous, column-free spaces that are possible within our modular buildings can be configured to meet your exact requirements, incorporating any specialist equipment, sterile working areas or secure storage facilities you may need. Our robust, all-steel buildings offer the permanent-quality of a traditional building with the added benefit of being up and running just a few weeks after your order is received.
Considering the extremely challenging timescale we were working to for this project, the whole process was made very straightforward for us. The laboratories are spacious and the performance of the building overall has exceeded our expectations. It is as good as any site-based building project. Off-site construction suits nanocomposite manufacturing very well.
Experienced in specialist requirements
Our in-house designers and engineers can work with you to accommodate challenging features like the dust-free, clean and easy-to-maintain environment that was created for nanocomposite testing at the University of Warwick's International Institute for Nanocomposites Manufacturing.

Totally Wicked
When Totally Wicked needed to expand facilities at its head office and production centre in Blackburn, the company chose a Portakabin off-site solution to shorten the programme and reduce disruption. The new scheme is the first purpose-designed fluid production and technical facility for electronic cigarettes to be built in the UK. It has enabled the company to increase capacity to over 10 million bottles of premium quality e-liquid every year for the UK, USA and worldwide markets.
