Prefabricated building refers to those which are partially or wholly manufactured in factories and then transported to construction sites for assembly.
This construction method not only helps increase the work efficiency of construction personnel, but also can effectively reduce construction costs, minimize the damage to the environment, and reduce environmental pollution.
Currently, the zone is home to one national prefabricated building production base and two provincial bases, strongly promoting the development of prefabricated buildings in the zone.
