North America Modular Construction Market

Market Overview:

The North America modular construction market size reached US$ 27.3 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 42.2 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during 2024-2032.

Modular construction includes off-site prefabrication of single or multi-storey structures before being installed on the main construction site. It includes the construction of various components, such as ceilings, doors, walls, floors, beams, columns, etc., that are joined together to make a single structure by deploying cranes and other lifting or rigging tools. Modular construction offers easy relocation or expansion, improved quality control, reduced construction time, better design options, and minimized waste production. In North America, modular construction is increasingly being adopted as a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional construction methods.

The increasing demand for prefabricated building structures along with growing focus on reducing overall construction cost and time is primarily driving the market for modular construction in North America. Furthermore, the rising number of infrastructure projects, including healthcare facilities, corporate buildings, modern housing centers, educational institutes, etc., is also propelling the market growth. Additionally, the rising environmental concerns towards increasing level of carbon emissions from conventional construction methods are further driving the demand for modular construction in the region. The introduction of numerous government initiatives for promoting the construction of green buildings across the United States and Canada, is also catalyzing the market. Moreover, the high prevalence of extreme cold weather in the region leading to shorter daytime and heavy snowfall that inhibit on-site construction methods is also propelling the need for modular construction. Moreover, the growing integration of numerous advanced technologies with prefabrication methods, such as 3D printing, artificial intelligence, Building Information Modeling (BIM) etc., are expected to further drive the market for modular construction in North America.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, in early 2020, however, has negatively impacted the market for modular construction in North America. The introduction of stay-at-home measures across the region has led to the postponement of numerous construction activities, disrupted supply chains, and led to the temporary closure of facilities, thereby hampering the market growth.
