MBI Seals - The Industry Regulatory Relief Fund

The modular industry's program dedicated to reducing and eliminating barriers to industry growth.

Support Our Efforts to Grow & Protect the Industry

MBI's focus is to identify, reduce, and remove barriers while capitalizing on opportunities in key markets. This is done in large part by retaining outside legal and lobbying support as well as by collaborating with other organizations on the development of new tools and resources. To be successful, it is imperative that we continue to build our war chest so funds are available when needed.

In recent years, these funds have been used to help develop new industry standards in the U.S. and Canada, create new modular-friendly building code language, and to defeat anti-industry legislation and regulations at numerous state, provincial, and federal levels.

We are asking all MBI members support this effort. Manufacturers can purchase one $20 MBI Seal for each new module constructed, while all other companies can make a donation in any amount and elect whether or not to receive an equivalent number of Seals.

Funds generated by the seals program will continue to be allocated towards removing these barriers to our growth in North America. 100% of funds from companies in South America and Europe will be redirected back into those regions in the form of additional marketing efforts.
