Our Kit of Parts
Our Kit of Parts is manufactured within the supply chain to remove the need for dedicated factories, making it a uniquely asset-light and scalable solution.
Our Kit of Parts is a standardised set of assemblies providing a high-performance modular housing system. It is the only accredited offsite solution that is produced within the supply chain, with no need for a fixed factory.
How does it work?
The Kit is designed for flatpack transportation and ease of assembly. It is delivered just-in-time and in sequence to temporary facilities close to or at the final site, where it is easily assembled into volumetric modules. These can be configured into standard or bespoke unit types.

Unit
Our fast-track service is based on our standard unit types with one, two, or three bedrooms. These highly efficient layouts have passed rigorous fire tests and are designed to provide optimised daylighting, acoustic performance, and ambient temperature control. They form the base library from which TESSA’s algorithms generate design options.
TESSA can generate design options for a variety of alternative accommodation types, including student, senior living, hotel, and meanwhile housing. The unit types for these asset classes can be configured from the Modulous Kit of Parts by our in-house design team, or systems from other providers can be digitized for use within TESSA.
