Netherland’s Modular Building Industry
The Modular Building Institute (MBI) is positioned to support the Netherlands as it experiences rapid growth in the modular construction industry. Drawing inspiration from North America—where the modular sector surpassed $12 billion in 2024 and accounted for 6.64% of new construction starts, particularly in multifamily housing—the Netherlands presents similar promise, especially with its strong national focus on sustainable and efficient construction practices.
World of Modular Europe 2025
Get ready for Europe's most comprehensive modular building event of the year! In 2024, MBI hosted our World of Modular Europe event in Brussels, Belgium where representatives of modular building companies and contractors from all around Europe attended.
This year, we're hosting the event in Madrid, Spain on the 6th-8th of October and welcome everyone to once again attend. Connect with other companies in your industry from around the world, listen to speakers present on modular building innovations and statistics, and prepare for the future with the predicted market growth for the next several years.

MBI's Role in Supporting the Netherlands’ Modular Construction Growth
MBI brings together a diverse network of professionals—from architects to developers—who drive progress within the modular construction industry. While only a few MBI members currently operate in the Netherlands, the region is recognized as an emerging hub for modular development. New members would join a global network committed to upholding high regulatory standards, leading innovation, and advancing sustainable building practices.
MBI offers a valuable resource for stakeholders in the Netherlands looking to engage with modular construction. Through MBI’s searchable member directory, users can connect with modular builders and professionals from around the world who bring experience and solutions tailored to various construction needs—from local housing to large commercial developments.
ISustainability and Innovation at the Heart of Modular Construction in the Netherlands
Given the Netherlands' progressive environmental goals and commitment to green building, modular construction offers an ideal solution. MBI members use offsite manufacturing combined with permanent modular construction (PMC) techniques to deliver projects faster, reduce waste, and minimize the carbon footprint. These methods align seamlessly with the Dutch demand for sustainable, resilient infrastructure.
World of Modular Europe: A Global Stage for Collaboration
MBI’s annual World of Modular Europe event—held in Madrid in 2025—is a cornerstone for professionals interested in the latest modular trends and technologies. It brings together builders, manufacturers, designers, and developers to network, share knowledge, and shape the future of construction across Europe, including new frontiers in the Netherlands.
Versatile Solutions for Diverse Construction Projects
From modular education buildings to healthcare medical centers, multifamily housing, and commercial buildings, modular construction in the Netherlands is well-suited to meet evolving project requirements. The flexibility and scalability of modular systems make them an ideal fit for the country's urban planning goals and space-conscious infrastructure.
Why Choose Modular Construction in the Netherlands?
For Dutch builders, embracing modular construction means adopting a system known for efficiency, precision, and sustainability. Projects built in factory-controlled environments lead to faster completions, reduced onsite disruption, and more consistent quality—making modular a competitive and eco-conscious alternative to traditional construction.
