Welcome to Hong Kong’s first private residential development built with Modular Integrated Construction (MIC), a pioneering leap into the future of housing.  This visionary project delivers 198 meticulously crafted units, assembled with the precision of interlocking building blocks. Beyond speed, MIC represents a quantum leap in sustainable development: slashing on-site construction activity, dramatically reducing noise pollution, and minimizing environmental disruption. Most crucially, it delivers a staggering reduction in carbon emissions—ushering in a cleaner era for urban development.  

Iris Wong / Host:

I’m here in Huangpu, Guangzhou, at China’s national hub for prefabricated construction innovation.

At this cutting-edge facility, MIC technology redefines the very DNA of construction. Entire buildings are deconstructed into modular units, precision-engineered in factory-controlled environments. These complete living modules—pre-installed with flooring, exterior cladding, and fully integrated utilities—arrive on-site as polished, plug-and-play components, ready for rapid assembly.  

Cai Guohai / Assistant General Manager, GMC Grand-Bay:

Each module is transported intact to the construction site, where the building rises block by block—like an architectural symphony of perfectly tuned components.

How does MIC outperform conventional construction methods?

Cai Guohai / Assistant General Manager, GMC Grand-Bay:  

First, unprecedented speed. Our Tonkin Street project achieved completion in just one year. Second, surgical precision. While traditional methods tolerate 2-centimeter variances, MIC delivers millimeter-perfect accuracy within 3 millimeters. Third, logistical efficiency—a single module shipment to Hong Kong replaces what would require multiple trips under old methods.

This is more than construction evolution—it’s a blueprint for smarter, greener cities. Where others see buildings, MIC sees opportunities: for sustainability, for community, for tomorrow.
