Recently, many individuals and companies have turned to rely on the so-called prefabricated houses.
They are houses manufactured, assembled in a specialized factory, and then transported ready-made, or in the form of sections, to the desired place to be installed to become ready for use.
These prefab houses are characterized by their resistance to earthquakes and various climatic factors. It is also very fast, manufactured, and installed in brief periods.
It also has a variety of sizes and shapes to suit different tastes and uses. It is also cheap compared to the costs of traditional buildings that rely on expensive bricks, cement, and reinforced iron.
It is also easy to maintain. It is also characterized by flexibility, some of which can be installed in a specific place permanently, and others are designed to be moved from one place to another.
These many advantages justify why the demand for prefabricated houses has recently become very large. Based on the above, investing in a prefabricated house factory project is one of the best investment options.
Below we will provide you with exclusive content through which you can learn all you need and all the information you need to invest in a prefabricated house factory project. Let’s Begin.
Location and area of the prefab factory project
To be able to establish a prefabricated house factory project, you must search for a place outside the residential communities and far from the neighborhoods in which people live so that they are not affected by the noise and so that the roads are wide and free to facilitate the movement of home transport vehicles, as these homes are transported on large cars. It must also be ensured that the road leading to the place is paved and suitable for the movement of those cars.
As for the space that fits this project, it should be as large as possible. Because the prefab houses are significant, a place must be provided to accommodate them and store them, so the space of the place must be large enough, to facilitate the assembly of prefabricated homes.
Equipment and supplies for the prefabricated house factory project:
There are many supplies and equipment that you must provide in your prefab factory so that you can produce prefab homes in your factory. Those fixtures and equipment are as follows:
All means of security and safety must be provided inside the factory, such as fire alarms, fire extinguishers, and surveillance cameras, to preserve your project and the safety of workers.
The factory should be equipped with a large warehouse to store raw materials or ready-made houses until they are transferred to their owners.
You must buy several large transport vehicles, to save the price of transporting prefabricated homes.
It is necessary to equip the factory with all tools and equipment for dismantling and fastening, such as various screwdrivers. You should provide several welding machines. This is in addition to some types of metals that are used in bonding. Metal plates, whether iron or steel. Wooden panels of different sizes and shapes. All types of pipes prepare the sewage and water network in prefabricated homes.
Everything related to electricity, such as conductors, switches, lamps, and others. Some types of doors, whether iron or wood. Some types of windows with all their accessories.
Raw materials used in the manufacture of prefab houses:
Many materials are used in the manufacture of prefabricated houses, which are indispensable in the project of a prefabricated house factory, and they differ according to the type, shape, and size of the house and the nature of the place where it will be placed, and among these materials are the following:
* Metal plates differ according to size, thickness, and type, and iron or steel plates are used.
* Wooden panels, which are of different shapes and sizes as well.
* Some insulating materials.
* Colors and paints.
* Nails, wires, and pipes.
* Large metal grommets.
Production stages of prefab houses:
As for the stages that prefabricated houses go through in their manufacturing journey within the prefabricated homes factory project, they are straightforward. Still, they also differ according to the shape and size of the required house, and these stages are as follows:
A sketch of the house is made first and presented to the client until it is approved or changes are made to it, according to the client’s desire.
The materials needed for the start of manufacture are determined. Some of these houses are made on wheels to move from one place to another, and some are made and transported once or set up in a place for a long time.
Metal and wood panels are assembled and bonded together until the floor is prepared. And then the walls, and finally the ceiling is installed.
There are some parts that it is not enough to fasten with screws. Therefore, welding machines are used to hold them together.
They are transported on cars through winches suspended from large metal rings.
Obtaining the necessary licenses to start a prefabricated house factory project:
To ensure that your prefab factory project continues to operate, you must obtain some licenses stipulated by state laws to ensure that the state protects your project and so that the state ensures that you pay taxes.
To obtain these licenses, there are some papers and documents you must submit with the license application file.
Labor to be available in the project:
Of course, the issue of labor and its number depends on some factors, such as the size of your factory, the volume of demand for ready-made homes in the market that your factory targets, the number of working hours you want the factory to work, and all of the above depends on the amount of capital you have available.
But I will mention to you the average number of workers that you can provide to start your project in work and production, which are as follows:
* six installation workers and assembling parts.
* 2 workers for packing and unloading.
* 2 cleaners.
* At least one maintenance worker.
* 2 production supervisors.
* accountant.
* Personnel affairs officer.
* Director of Marketing and Public Relations.
* At least two-night security personnel.
As I mentioned, this is an average number, but you can start with only four workers, and you can double that number if you want to run your factory two or three shifts a day.
Marketing methods for the products of the prefabricated house factory project:
Price, quality, good customer service, and after-sales service are among the essential pillars of the marketing plan for your prefabricated home project.
You have to make some exhibitions in which models of what you make in your factory are displayed so that a large number of people can view them, and the features of these houses are explained during the exhibitions.
Also, distribute some propaganda papers in new cities in particular, and to companies that operate in remote locations in the desert, as they need such houses, so that workers and engineers can stay in them during the period of work in those locations.
You can also contract with petroleum and contracting companies, as these companies need mobile and tiny prefabricated homes to make it easier for them to move from place to place. These companies also work in remote areas where they do not find places for workers and engineers to live.
Summary:
The prefab factory project is a clear example of a successful and profitable industrial project. This current project offers a modern type of house that has dozens of advantages that make it unique from others.
During the topic, we explained these advantages in detail, as well as all the requirements for establishing a prefabricated house factory project and how to operate and market it.
