Horizon Europe 2026-2027 Targets Scalable Offsite Renovation Components: A Supplier Readiness Guide
Programme Direction
What type of solution is being sought?
Direct answer: The work programme points toward scalable offsite-manufactured components that can support customised renovation across varied buildings.
Use the European Commission work-programme document for the formal scope.
Existing-Building Data
What must be captured before manufacture?
Direct answer: Survey geometry, substrate condition, structure, moisture, fire strategy, services, access and resident constraints. Define tolerances and how field uncertainty will be absorbed.
Interface Design
Which interfaces control repeatability?
Direct answer: Standardise survey data, fixings, joints, weather seals, service connections and digital identifiers. Allow configurable dimensions without redesigning the entire system.
Demonstrator Evidence
What should suppliers measure?
Direct answer: Record installation time, defects, airtightness, thermal performance, moisture behaviour, waste, resident disruption and maintainability. State test conditions so results can be compared.
For building-level coordination, the International Building Code overview provides useful context, but the project must follow the locally adopted rules.

What should a project inquiry include?
Direct answer: State the destination, occupancy, room schedule, climate, design loads, utilities, transport limits, installation split and approval route. Buyers can review ZH-ENG modular building solutions before confirming the project configuration.
