From Shipbuilding Expertise to Industrialized Housing
ADMARES was founded with a singular vision: to industrialize the construction of housing through smart, scalable, and efficient technology. Our journey began in the shipbuilding industry, where modular engineering and off-site fabrication were already solving complex challenges in confined, regulated environments. Today, those same principles drive our mission to transform how the world builds.
ALMACO Modular Construction Acquired
ADMARES was founded by Mikael Hedberg, leveraging decades of expertise in shipbuilding and modular construction. The acquisition of ALMACO’s modular construction division marked the transition from offshore to land-based housing solutions, establishing the foundation for ADMARES’ product and production technology.
