Conor McAvoy and Orla McAvoy Corr, founders of Mac Zero, are driven to push the modular construction industry forward by setting new benchmarks for Customer Experience, Design Quality and Building Performance.
Between them, Conor and Orla have over 50 years of modular building experience having grown the McAvoy Group, from its humble beginnings working out of the family farm, to leading its management team. The name Mac Zero Modular Buildings is derived from their passion to care for their people and to create a culture that drives quality, builds reputation, and delivers its promise. Mac Zero is a small company with big ambitions, run with true family values and a commitment to sustainability and excellence.
BUILDINGS THAT REFLECT YOUR VALUES AND PROJECT VISION
We understand the market’s urgency to embrace energy efficient, carbon neutral buildings. At a time when the world is feeling the damaging effects of excessive carbon in our atmosphere, coupled with escalating energy prices, we promote and adopt the design and manufacture of high performing buildings. Reducing the carbon footprint of buildings is not just good for the environment, it’s good for business. Hence our focus is the design and manufacture of energy efficient, low carbon modular buildings.
LESS IS MORE - QUALITY OVER QUANTITY
We create next generation energy-saving modular buildings to make our community healthier and safer. We help to save the environment and reduce cost through designing for longevity, flexibility & long-term use:
Multi-functional spaces designed with repurposing in mind.
Simple, effective practices such as passive solar design combined with new technologies.
Natural, durable, low maintenance, recyclable and/or biodegradable materials with low-zero toxins, ethically and sustainably sourced.
Local factory focused production with emphasis on local labour resource and supply chain.
COLLABORATIVE TEAM APPROACH
Given that 90% of construction cost is determined at design stage, we focus heavily on front-end design and supply chain engagement, where the direction is set to maximise asset value. We believe that early collaboration with the client team, including groundworks contractors, is the key to high quality, cost-effective buildings. Our collaborative and transparent approach makes the design and delivery process easy to understand.

RELOCATION & REPURPOSE
Our business is focussed on sustainable designs. We recognise when renovating or rebuilding, it’s crucial to utilise eco-friendly, sustainable methods, and customisable structures to avoid new buildings falling out of use. We design and manufacture buildings with design flexibility and recycled materials considered. When times change, and organisations need to restructure, Mac Zero buildings can be quickly modified to meet your unique requirements. Thinking towards the future, you can customise each building to prepare for growth, expansions, and avoid expensive renovations or wasteful demolitions.
We offer a full relocation and repurpose service from design and reconfigure, projection management, decommission, reinstall and handover. We also offer for rent portable accommodation units. This way staff and valuable resources have a comfortable, secure place during the renovation or construction process.
