Limerick company Modulacc is to create 25 jobs to meet growing demand for its energy-efficient modular buildings, particularly in the education sector.
Modulacc, which previously traded under the Castlecabin brand, has opened a second offsite building manufacturing facility to boost supply of its ready-to-use classroom solutions.
The new jobs will bring Modulacc'ss total workforce to 70.
The company's new employees will be mainly involved in the production of its new near zero energy building (NZEB) building range.
Modulacc has built up a strong relationship with schools across the country and its products - with a 50 year lifespan - are already in place at over 100 schools across Ireland.
The firm is also growing its client base in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors.
The company was established as Castlecabin by Tom Chawke at its original Castletroy site in Limerick in 1979.
Tom Chawke's son Tony took over as managing MD in 2009.
"Our mission is to set the standard for an industry, where the model has traditionally been to follow others. Today’s announcement is further evidence of our ambition to deliver sustainable building solutions to our core markets," Tony Chawke said.
