(PRWEB) October 7, 2005 -- Launched less than two years ago, Portakabin Marketing Suites were developed to provide house builders, such as Redrow Homes, with high quality, bespoke buildings that provide a better environment to showcase new developments.

Providing spacious, stylish environments with the flexibility to reflect whatever image is required - from the hustle and bustle of city living to quieter rural developments - the marketing suites can be configured to the individual needs of the project.
One of the UK’s most successful residential and commercial property developers, Redrow Homes was the first customer to purchase a Portakabin Marketing Suite and has now become the proud owner of the 100th.
Situated at the company’s new Platform One development in Staffordshire, Redrow bought this marketing suite, as well as the others it now owns, to reflect its reputation for quality.
Chris Pitt, Redrow Homes’ Plant Manager, said: “More often than not the marketing suite is the first building to be put in place on any new site. They are crucial to the success of a development as potential buyers have to be able to visualise what the properties will be like when they are finished.”
“Before Portakabin introduced its new modular marketing suite range, we used to site our marketing offices in the space allocated for a double garage, which meant it could take several weeks before it was up and running. It also meant we had to design them to fit in with the physical constraints of the space on offer, rather than what we really needed in terms of shape and size.
“Portakabin has provided us with high quality site accommodation for many years so we decided to look at what it could offer us for marketing purposes, which could be easily moved from site to site and constructed quickly.”
Marketing suites need to make use of as much natural light as possible, as well as being spacious and airy for sales staff and customers. The exterior of the buildings also needs to be modern and smart to reflect the high standard of homes being built.
Portakabin Marketing Suites can be up and running within two weeks, compared to the average 12 weeks it takes to construct one by traditional means, allowing housebuilders to begin marketing new developments much more quickly.
Chris continued: “The team at Portakabin worked closely with us to design and develop a bespoke modular building that incorporated all the features we required and we’re very pleased with the results. That’s why we’ve bought so many!
“We currently use Portakabin Marketing Suites on developments across the country. The buildings are completely flexible so as well as being totally portable buildings, if we feel that the layout of a suite needs to be adapted to more closely reflect the properties being built in a particular area it can be easily changed.”
