BoKlok UK, the offsite housing developer jointly owned by Skanska and Ikea, has appointed Goldman Sachs-backed modular manufacturer TopHat to help deliver its first product offering in the UK.
Under the five-year contract, TopHat will work with BoKlok to manufacture two- and three-bedroom houses.
Like all BoKlok developments, the homes will be made from timber frames and will include key BoKlok features such as natural light, low energy consumption and Ikea fittings. All homes will be BOPAS (Building Offsite Property Assurance Scheme) certified.
Graeme Culliton, BoKlok UK managing director and country manager, said: “We are delighted to be working with TopHat. We share the same ambition to bring innovation and sustainability to the UK housing market, which means attractive and good quality homes for people on average incomes.
