The concept of prefabricated houses in the construction industry in Pakistan is fairly new. The launch of Naya Pakistan Housing Program (NPHP) in the country has attracted many foreign investors and construction companies to build affordable and low-cost housing for the poor and the homeless. As per the most recent update, Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan has inaugurated the \u201cPrefabricated Housing Project,\u201d along with the Chinese envoy in Islamabad.<\/strong> Prefabricated houses in NPHP is the next big thing in Pakistan’s construction industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the work on Naya Pakistan Housing Program entering its practical phase and the last date to register in NPHP <\/a>approaching fast, people are submitting their registrations online through the Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme portal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, let\u2019s begin with the definition of prefab homes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are prefabricated houses?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Modular homes or prefab homes feature pieces or components that are especially built in a factory. These individual construction components are then transported on the construction site where they are simply assembled. Whereas, site-built homes are constructed using conventional methods. These houses are built on the site which will be inhabited, using construction materials and equipment.

Here Is How NPHP Will Benefit From Prefabricated Housing Technology<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The plant for prefabricated houses is being set up by the leading Chinese construction company Henan D.R. Construction Group in the M-3 Special Economic Zone. In the groundbreaking ceremony, PM Imran Khan also discussed how prefabricated houses will benefit and speed up the process of building affordable houses on a large scale and in the shortest possible time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Zaighum Mehmood Rizvi, who currently serves as the head of the 17-member task force formed by the PM for overseeing the government’s flagship Naya Pakistan Housing Program, shared his views about prefab houses, \u201cWe are working on using prefabricated housing technology which has met quality standards and, apart from this, international contractors from China, Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia are also showing interest because we need large scale manufacturers who will use the latest technologies to build houses in short time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is expected that Naya Pakistan Housing Program will first begin in big cities like Lahore and Karachi as these cities have more population and the land is expensive to buy here for a common man.
