Skillnet MMC Accelerate’s Post

A big thanks to the Remagin team for hosting our recent Skillnet MMC Accelerate Business Support Event on October 15. We were thrilled to collaborate with Remagin Ireland by Etex to welcome a diverse group of over 100 attendees to their Offsite Manufacturing Facility in Cahir Business Park, Cahir, Co. Tipperary. It was fantastic to reconnect with familiar faces and meet so many new ones! This event was truly unique, as attendees had the rare opportunity to witness the Remagin experts in action creating new LGS homes. The day began with a warm welcome and introduction from Alan Hore, who provided an overview of Skillnet MMC Accelerate. Ger Fahey followed with an insightful presentation on how Remagin operates, offering valuable perspectives on the technology behind their low-energy solutions. He highlighted the importance of the MMC industry uniting to advance offsite construction. Máirín McGrath spoke passionately about the vital role of partnerships and collaboration between industry and higher education providers. Órla G. gave more detail of the Skillnet MMC Accelerate initiative, including the platform https://lnkd.in/eTnsQVDJ and the Business Support Events. She explained how Skillnet MMC Accelerate is driving change and supporting innovation across the construction sector. Jeff Stanford presented an M&E Co-ordination case study of a development in Clonsilla involving EDC - Engineering Design Consultants ALTU Architects, ORS, Murphy Matson O'Sullivan Consulting Engineers Ltd. MCHUGH PROPERTIES LIMITED, TC Estimating Services Ltd, Monami Construction, Stephen Diamond Associates and Remagin for more efficient coordination in design, off-site manufacturing and onsite installation. John Hoctor from Tipperary Fire Rescue Service provided unique insight into the dwelling fires in framed construction. Declan Wallace discussed unlocking barriers to creating an ecosystem for more cost-effective MMC mid-rise construction. Darragh Ryan ended by sharing how Remagin maintains sustainability, from minimising waste and transport emissions to reduced snagging. He also spoke of the benefits of LGS with competitive pricing, cost certainty, speed and less dependency on trades and simplifying on site management processes. Following the presentations, there was an interactive Q&A and factory tour. A huge thanks to all our speakers, attendees, and the entire Remagin team.
