Utilizing Prefabrication Technology to Preserve Water

Water crisis is a major concern that has worried every nation across the globe. The excess demands and depleting availability has created an unavoidable scenario of crisis that must be addressed in all ways possible.  

Alleviation of water wastage must be practiced in all domains and the same is to be catered by the construction sector. Conventional brick and mortar or concrete construction methods are high water consuming activities and result in enormous wastage of the same as well. There is no controlled strategy to prevent wastage of water in construction projects and thus massive volumes get lost in the processes.   

Water has an essential requirement in various phases of construction such as preparation of concrete, wetting surfaces, cooling of concrete elements, cleaning of material as well as in preparation of plaster for surfaces. In each of these processes, large volumes of water are utilized and much is wasted as well.    

Eliminating the reliance of water in construction through prefabrication   

Prefabrication is a “Dry Construction Technique” that allows development of building components without utilization of water. This method caters to the current awareness and demands for change. By implementation of these processes, greater savings in water consumption can be achieved at each and every stage of process of construction as well as post-construction.        

As these modular construction techniques usually involve working with metal frames, composite rockwool sandwich panels, wooden elements and dry foundations, there is minimum dependency on water.  

Prefabrication technology is the only viable solution to target better water wastage reduction in construction processes and thus cater to the rising concerns of crisis. Prefabrication technology is an overall sustainable process that alleviates resource wastage and enables better energy savings as well.

Another factor that makes modular technology a viable alternative to the traditional construction method is its involvement of materials that are 100% recyclable. This delivers unparalleled efficiency, sustainability as well as environmental protection standards with an overall saving in cost and resources.      

The flexible approaches of design and ergonomics serve a fantastic possibility for reusing modular construction elements to gain myriad utilization possibilities. This way altering a building altogether can be accomplished without the need of any fresh resources thus enabling better material and water savings.  

The incredible advantages of dry construction processes enable better savings of resources and through environmental-friendly processes, it becomes possible to preserve water for flourishment of the future generations. EPACK offers Rockwool panel solutions, LGSF structures, portable buildings and many other modular construction offerings that are vital to derive technologies that enable sustainable development processes.
