According to a
McKinsey & Company report, modular projects:
• have established a solid track record of accelerating project timelines by
20 to 50%
• can deliver over 20% in construction cost savings when optimized for scale
In a survey conducted by Prefab Modular Smart Market Report (2020):
• 91% of contractors reported improved budget performance when using
modular techniques
• 68% of these indicated savings of 5% or higher
• respondents indicated reductions in project durations of 20 to 50%
Another factor—the well-publicized shortage of available and affordable housing
stock—is also contributing to the rise of modular construction, particularly in
urban areas with high demand and limited space.

Modular and off-site construction projects demand materials that do more:
streamline projects without sacrificing performance.

Carbon fiber increases modulus more than glass or natural fibers and a composite with 50% fiber will be stiffer than one containing 30%.
Long fiber composites typically have similar impact performance at -60°F (-50°C) as they do at room temperature.

Hot tip gates are suitable for GLS TPEs, but they will leave some gate vestige (which can be as high as 50% to 75% of the gate diameter).
