Introduction
Based in Hampshire, PF Modular has been providing portable and modular accommodation solutions to businesses and organisations since 2005. Our knowledge and expertise mean we can satisfy a diverse range of customer requirements, from secure storage units to bespoke, multi-storey modular office buildings, portable classrooms and modular marketing suites.
Sustainability is crucial to us, and we go to great lengths to minimise the negative impact of what we do. We believe our buildings contribute positively to the environment, reducing the negative impact of traditional build to the local environment and wildlife.
Our company ethos is to provide high-quality accommodation at excellent value for money while protecting and enhancing the environment on both a local and global level wherever we can while reducing, recycling and reusing building materials is at the heart of our business.
