High-Specification Welfare for Manchester Sites
As Manchester continues its rapid urban development, the demand for high-quality onsite facilities has never been higher. Adacon supplies the P600 modular building system, a steel-framed solution designed for longevity and comfort. Unlike standard shipping container conversions, our modules are purpose-built for human habitation, featuring fully insulated walls, floors, and roofs as standard. This ensures your workforce remains productive and comfortable, whether they are working on a high-rise project in the city centre or a infrastructure scheme in the surrounding boroughs.
Flexible Configurations for Any Headcount
The P600 system is modular, meaning single units can be used for small teams, or multiple units can be linked to create expansive complexes. You can explore these layouts using our P600 configurator to visualize your specific site needs.
- Single Module (13m²): Ideal for small sites or as dedicated modular toilet blocks. These are frequently used by contractors on residential renovations in areas like Chorlton or Didsbury.
- 2-3 Modules (26m² - 39m²): Often configured to include a canteen, drying room, and separate office space. This is a popular choice for mid-sized commercial developments.
- 4+ Modules: Large-scale complexes for major contractors. These can be stacked two storeys high to maximise footprint on tight urban sites where ground space is at a premium.
By browsing our site welfare units page, you can see how these configurations meet various health and safety requirements for site facilities.
What is Included as Standard?
We believe site welfare should not feel like a temporary afterthought. Every P600 module we deliver to Manchester includes:
- Fully insulated steel frame structure (floor, walls, and roof).
- Internal finishes: Plastered and painted walls, laminate flooring, and LED lighting.
- Double-glazed uPVC windows and high-security external doors.
- Electrical sockets and a pre-installed consumer unit.
- Exterior cladding in a choice of colours to match your corporate branding.
Optional extras are highly recommended for welfare use, including integrated modular shower blocks, kitchenettes with water heaters, and air conditioning units for year-round temperature control.
Indicative Pricing for Manchester Projects
Costs for site welfare units vary based on the number of modules and the internal fit-out required. For projects in the Greater Manchester area, our indicative price bands are typically:
- Single Module Welfare Units: Starting from approximately £18,000.

Delivery and Site Access in Greater Manchester
Our production facility in Turkey allows us to maintain strict quality control, with finished modules transported via sea freight and road. For Manchester deliveries, we typically utilise the M6 and M62 motorway networks. We are experienced in navigating the specific logistics of the region:
- City Centre Logistics: For tight sites in central Manchester or Salford, we can coordinate with local traffic management and crane hire companies to ensure safe placement.
- Access Constraints: If your site is located in a narrow residential area or a rural location on the outskirts of the city, we will assess access routes for our delivery vehicles during the planning phase.
- Site Preparation: It is the customer's responsibility to provide a level, prepared base (such as concrete pads or a slab) and to ensure that a crane can operate safely on the day of delivery.
Local Authority Considerations
Requirements for site welfare units can vary depending on their duration on site and the nature of the project. While temporary structures for construction sites often fall under specific allowances, we recommend checking with the relevant local authority—whether that is Manchester City Council, Salford City Council, or another borough—to confirm if planning permission or specific building regulations apply to your installation.
Lead Times and Availability
We understand that construction programmes are time-sensitive. Our standard lead times are measured in weeks rather than months. For firms in Manchester requiring immediate solutions, we occasionally hold 'Ready to Order' stock units that can be dispatched even faster. Your specific delivery schedule will be confirmed at the point of quotation.
