It’s promising to projects like BERTIM.
The study has been focused on following regions: Germany, Scandinavia, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Austria and Poland. According to scientists study, among 1+2 family housing, prefabricated housing is expected to gain in relevance, growing at c.3% p.a. from 2017 to 2022.
