From the pandemic, Australia learns the importance of self-sufficiency, reducing reliance on overseas supplies, like from China, and promoting manufacturing within the country, including prefabricated houses in Australia.
The alternative is to be a country dependent on (and subservient) to other countries for many of our basic living requirements. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that Australia cannot afford to be in that precarious position. Supporting homegrown industries has never been more crucial. Choose prefabricated houses in Australia today.
The problem
Did you know that China supplies 90% of Australia’s merchandise imports and that the bulk of those imports are manufactured products? The proud ‘Made in Australia’ label is very hard to find these days, but you can find ‘made in China’ everywhere.
This is a real problem with the challenges Australia (and especially Melbourne) faces due to the impact of COVID-19 on the economy.
The solution
Many economists are now stressing the importance of reinvigorating Australia’s manufacturing sector, including the production of prefabricated houses. Manufacturing now accounts for only about 6% of Australia’s GDP, yet in the 1950s, it was 29%. It has steadily declined ever since, and so has Australia’s vulnerability.
How we can help with Prefabricated houses in Australia: The solution to your space needs
At Garden Studios in Melbourne, we architecturally design and build 100% Australian prefabricated garden studios (also known as granny flats) to suit various needs. We use no Chinese inputs whatsoever, and none from any other country. We are proudly Australian (and Victorian)!
Not only do we use all-Australian materials, we also use Australian innovation in our prefabrication process. Our state-of-the-art production facility utilizes a CNC router, a computer-controlled cutting machine, to prefabricate all the key components of our garden studios. This advanced technology enables us to meet precise and custom specifications with utmost precision. In our process, we recess all windows and doors into pre-fabricated panels, eliminating the need and cost of double-glazed windows.
By eliminating carpenters and nails we ensure exceptional quality without human error and maintain our exceptional quality standards. Moreover, this approach significantly reduces the cost of our studios. On-site, in the yards of our clients, we assemble these prefabricated components, thereby adding substantial value to their homes.
Explore our stylish garden studio designs for additional living space for your growing or adult kids, or elderly parents moving in with you. We can also customise our designs to suit your individual situation. We’ll take the time to understand your specific needs and we’ll provide you with the right advice.
