Modular factory in Erlenbach am Main, Germany

The office building is part of the MoFa Building Project, which stands for Modular Factory and consists of a turn-key product for customers who are interested in a sustainable and integral solution comprising both the technology and the building around it.

 

The results is a timber building consisting of three functional modules, which are interlocked into a dynamic ensemble and accommodate the different functional groups: management/laboratory, logistics, and production. This modular system enables multiple building sizes and configurations to allow for growth scenarios and therefore can adjust to the customer´s changing needs.

 

The use of concrete has been reduced to the indispensable fire-separating walls and the ground-floor slab, maximizing the amount of timber in the building. This material choice not only helps to reduce the carbon footprint of the building due to the CO2 sequestrating capacity of wood but also enables a high degree of prefabrication, hence drastically shortening construction time.
