Lanex Manufacturing Inc., a leader in precision machining and fabrication, has recently acquired METALOQ's patented steel structure prefabrication technology and is now offering this advanced modular construction solution to the market.

Revolutionizing Construction with METALOQ

METALOQ presents a pre-engineered "frame kit" system designed for mass production and customization. Builders have the flexibility to assemble the frames in-house or receive them in knock-down form for on-site assembly, streamlining operations for construction companies of all sizes.

Simplified Assembly Process

The METALOQ frames are engineered for straightforward assembly. A small team equipped with basic hand tools can erect the frames on a flat surface without the need for specialized tradespeople or complex fixtures. This design ensures precise tolerances, which are crucial for CNC-driven fit-out processes, thereby accelerating construction timelines and ensuring consistency across projects.

Scalable Solutions for Diverse Projects

In their standard configuration, METALOQ frames are stackable, supporting the construction of non-combustible buildings ranging from four to ten stories. For taller structures, heavier frame versions combined with braced cores can accommodate buildings exceeding thirty floors. This scalability makes METALOQ suitable for a wide array of applications, from residential complexes to commercial edifices.

Lanex Manufacturing: Driving Innovation

Based in Windsor, Ontario, Lanex Manufacturing Inc. has a longstanding reputation for excellence in precision machining, fabrication, assembly, and cold-forming steel. The strategic acquisition of METALOQ's technology enables Lanex to offer innovative, non-combustible, sustainable, and cost-effective building solutions in the offsite construction industry.

 

Key Benefits of METALOQ Technology

• Safety and Sustainability: Constructed from cold-formed steel, METALOQ frames provide exceptional durability and fire resistance, aligning with the industry's shift toward safer and more sustainable building practices.
• Rapid Construction: The intuitive design allows for swift assembly, significantly reducing construction timelines compared to traditional methods, leading to faster project completion and cost savings.
• Cost Efficiency: Streamlined manufacturing and assembly processes result in cost savings, making METALOQ an attractive option for a wide range of construction projects.
• Consistent Quality: Lanex's kit-based supply model ensures consistency and quality, facilitating rapid scaling and deployment for construction companies aiming to expand their modular capabilities.

Empowering the Construction Industry

Along with supplying purpose-built modular kit frames Lanex is also actively exploring opportunities for sublicensing and self-production agreements with strategic partners to broaden the reach of METALOQ's innovative technology. This collaborative approach aims to foster widespread adoption, driving industry-wide progress.

For construction companies engaged in or considering prefabrication or volumetric modular manufacturing, METALOQ offers a transformative solution. Its blend of precision engineering, ease of assembly, and scalability addresses core challenges in modern construction, paving the way for efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable projects.

In an industry where time, quality, and cost are critical, METALOQ, supported by Lanex Manufacturing's expertise, emerges as the definitive choice for forward-thinking construction companies. Embracing this innovative framing system unlocks new levels of efficiency and excellence, setting the stage for the next era of modular construction.
