►SAFETY

►SIMPLICITY

►SUPERIOR QUALITY

Bathroom pods have been in use across Europe and Asia for decades, and we are proud to have been the first to introduce them to North America. Since 2004 we have installed over 15,000 bathrooms in a variety of commercial settings, including hotels, dormitories, hospitals, military barracks and apartment buildings. Modular bathrooms represent an exciting paradigm shift in construction, which is in keeping with Oldcastle’s long standing tradition of innovation.

We work across North America on a daily basis with countless architects, contractors and developers. As the largest and longest tenured manufacturer of component modular solutions in North America, Oldcastle is in a unique position to help guide you through the process of modular construction to achieve the benefits highlighted above. We invite you to contact us to discuss your next project.

advantage SPEED

SpeedManufacturing of bathroom pods and on-site activities occur concurrently which enables construction firms to accelerate their schedules. Easy and efficient installation on-site and no punch list to worry about due to our stringent quality standards also help save significant time on-site. In addition, factories are not subject to weather delays. Overall, Oldcastle SurePods offer a potential savings of up to 20% off a project time line.

SimplicityPre-fabricated bathroom pods simplify projects. Put an end to the parade of trades vying for space to work inside the bathroom. Use bathroom pods and eliminate 8–12 trades from working in a confined space that requires a high level of finish. Bathroom pods will help you minimize your project punch list, decrease waste, reduce material deliveries and keep the site cleaner. The construction manager has one supplier to coordinate with for the entire bathroom. SurePods improve logistical efficiency, and promote a simplified work environment.

HOW DO SUREPODS SIMPLIFY?• Design assist program

• Single point of contact

• Minimized installation time

• Reduced punch list

• Reduced material waste

• Less people on site

• Reduced labor supervision at site

On the Saint Joseph Hospital project, Oldcastle bathroom pods saved 52 days, diverted 78,000 labor hours off-site and reduced required labor overall by 27,700 hours.(M.A. Mortenson Company, 2014)

advantage SAFETY

SafetyRemoving bathroom construction from the site reduces workers compensation rates, decreases the risk of OHSA violations and has potential to reduce general liability insurance.Factories are not affected by dangers of poor weather conditions. Safety measures are easy to monitor and can be strictly imposed in a manufacturing facility. The bathrooms are constructed at ground level, reducing risks from working at heights. When all combined, factories are a safer place to build bathrooms.

Each hour pulled off-site anddone in the factory at ground level virtually eliminates fatalities from falls and caught-in-betweens.

the OLDCASTLE SUREPOD PROCESS

SurePods are modeled in Revit by our engineers which facilitates the use of BIM or building information modeling.

1 Bathroom pods are primarily shipped to project sites over the road in closed container trucks. We can also ship via flatbed and ocean container.

3

The SurePods factory is driven by automation. Materials are cut using CNC machines which drive dimensional accuracy.2 The Oldcastle team of

experienced installers will load 25-30 pods on average per day from a designated staging area JIT delivery to site.

the OLDCASTLE SUREPOD PROCESS

The customer and an Oldcastle representative do a walk-through inspection of all bathroom units once on site. When hand-off is complete, the warranty period begins.

7

Mechanical contractors connect the bathroom pod to the buildings services Early planning of scope helps contractors know where the pod systems will connect.

6 The bathrooms are complete. You now have superior quality bathrooms ready for occupancy. Oldcastle SurePods stands behind our bathroom pods 100%.

The Oldcastle team moves the bathroom pod into final position after the building is weather tight and mechanical rough-ins are completed.

WHAT MAKES A GOOD BATHROOM POD PROJECT? • Bathroom unit quantity is greater than 100.• Bathrooms feature a repetitive layouts.• Project is schedule driven.• Project location is rural and therefore less accessible. • There are logistical challenges due to a dense urban site. • Skilled local subcontractor labor is expensive or unavailable.
