Challenge 01
Work must fit a school break
Our answer

Customers · Schools, hospitals & communities
Steel buildings for schools, hospitals and communities, built during the break
Classroom blocks, sports halls, covered courts, hospital car parks, covered walkways and community halls. We design and fabricate the steel structure in our own factory and deliver it ready to bolt, so your Thai contractor finishes on site in weeks, not months.

What you need
Safe buildings, finished while the students are away
Schools and hospitals cannot stop. A new classroom block, sports hall, covered court or hospital car park has to be built in a short window, close to students, patients and visitors, and it must be safe for decades.
Prefabricated steel moves most of the work into our factory. We design and fabricate the structure, and the Thai contractor erects it with bolts in a few weeks, with less noise, dust and traffic on site.
- Short, quiet work on site during school breaks
- Column-free halls and covered courts
- Multi-storey blocks and car parks on small plots
- Fire protection and long-life paint
- Supply through your Thai contractor

FAQ
Questions Thai clients ask us
Can the building be finished during a school break?
Often yes. The steel is fabricated before the break and the structure is bolted up on site in a few weeks. The exact time depends on size and site access.
Do you build the school or hospital?
No. We design, fabricate and supply the steel structure and purlins. A Thai contractor builds the project, including foundations, roofing and finishes.
Is steel safe for public buildings?
Yes. Structures are designed to Thai building, wind and seismic codes, and fire protection up to R120 can be applied in our factory.
Can a temple or foundation order a hall?
Yes, through a Thai contractor of your choice. We give the contractor a clear steel price.
