Over the years, we have delivered complete, high-quality school buildings, offices and health centres in response to emergency situations.
Here are just a few examples to illustrate:
Schools often need accommodation at short notice – and not always in response to a disaster. Full pupil intake numbers are often not known until late in the school year – and if numbers are higher than expected, you may need to get additional classrooms and other facilities in place very quickly. Portakabin can react immediately to meet these demands, ensuring you have all the buildings you need ready for the start of the new school year.
Don’t wait until you’re faced with a crisis to form your plans – emergencies are very pressurised situations. Ask about a free Emergency Buildings Plan to help ensure business continuity at all times.
For emergency requirements, we are on call 24 hours today – just call your local Visitor Centre.
Portakabin and Mace have worked closely to deliver this temporary school to ensure that the pupils of KAA have access to suitable facilities for the next twelve months. It has been a hugely emotional project to work on. It’s been very moving to see everyone in the supply chain move heaven and earth to deliver a fully functioning school for nearly 1,000 pupils. This is a real testament to what you can do when every member of a team is pulling in the same direction.
When a fire destroyed nearly half of the original buildings at Carleton Community High School, it was essential that the buildings could be replaced quickly to ensure that disruption was kept to a minimum.
Known as the fastest school ever built, KAA2 was an unprecedented project from start to finish and took a record-breaking nine weeks to build
After unprecedented flooding in Cumbria, Portakabin provided Newman Catholic School with interim classrooms through a two-phase emergency response plan.
