Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Modern Construction Methods: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Tom Parlon:

If we are into standardisation, robotics in the plants would make a lot of sense. I am actually part of an industry delegation going to Estonia the week after next. Apparently it is big into exporting modular timber homes all over Europe, particularly Scandinavia. It has a massive timber heartland. It has developed its modular construction to a very high degree, so it will be interesting for the industry to pick up some ideas there.
