Industrialization and off-site

Together Building a More Sustainable Tomorrow!

Building resilient infrastructures, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization, as well as fostering innovation are just some of the premises that can and should be associated with the principle of durability. These have been guiding our performance in the market.

Industrialization is our tool to increase efficiency. We believe it will be essential for the transition of construction, where we will increasingly see products and systems designed and produced in an integrated way. It allows us to transform construction into a process of assembling components that can be configured in different ways to achieve the contracted final result.

The durability of buildings depends on better design, better performance of building products, and the sharing of information. In this sense, as a civil engineering and construction company, we are already at the forefront when it comes to using construction techniques that promote building durability and material resilience.

Our teams use technologies such as BIM to simulate various durability scenarios and compare costs. The use of software that allows us to have a more incisive focus on the building’s main performance indicators, such as its cost throughout its life cycle is already a reality for Casais.

In our processes, we have also included the resources necessary for error resilience. We have already started our industrialization and off-site pre-construction process, with considerable impact on all phases of building design, construction, and maintenance.

We are developing solutions that allow us to add off-site construction processes to BIM technology that focus on the opportunity to bring the construction sector closer to the best practices of other industries.

 

The visible face of this industrialization process is BluFab, which embodies our off-site construction unit and is supplying the construction sites with elements manufactured and assembled in the factory.

 

Thus, in addition to being completely focused on the development of quality, reliable, sustainable, and resilient infrastructures designed to support human well-being and economic development, we have been promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization. It helps us foster the processes of technological development, research, and innovation.

Casais Offsite & Technology Hub

Located in Braga, the Casais Offsite & Technology Hub is the space where we have brought together expertise, technology and production capacity to accelerate transformation in the construction sector.

Group companies Blufab, Bluint, BluMEP, HidroCNT, Opertec, Quadrina, TopBIM, Twin Studio and Undel are working together in this ecosystem, so that each one can contribute specialist knowledge in their respective areas of the construction value chain.

The Hub brings together different fields of expertise, ranging from digital development and coordination to engineering, offsite production and systems integration.

Bringing these disciplines into such close proximity with one another enables us to coordinate design, production, logistics and assembly using an integrated approach which enhances predictability, and improves quality and efficiency throughout the entire construction process.

It is within this ecosystem that we develop, test and produce industrialised solutions that work in real-world projects, thereby ensuring that construction becomes more familiar with best practices in other industries and, as a result, promotes safer, more sustainable and scalable processes.
