Modular Bathroom Units Revolutionize Construction with Hoisting Technology

In a groundbreaking advancement for the construction industry, modular bathroom units installed via hoisting technology are reshaping how modern buildings are developed. This innovative approach, which combines factory prefabrication with on-site precision hoisting，has gained significant traction in 2025, driven by China’s push for prefabricated construction and global demand for sustainable, efficient solutions.

Key Advantages of Hoisted Modular Bathrooms

Modular bathroom units, such as those cases are fully assembled in factories with integrated fixtures like waterproof trays, wall panels, ceilings, and drainage systems. These units are then transported to sites and lifted into place using cranes, drastically reducing construction time compared to traditional wet-lay methods. For instance, a typical bathroom installation that once took 10+ days can now be completed in as little as 2 days.

The non-slab-lowering same-floor drainage, a core feature of these units, eliminates the need for structural slab modifications. This not only saves 30% on construction costs but also prevents common issues like water leakage and odor problems. Additionally, the use of fire-resistant materials and modular designs ensures durability, with lifespans exceeding 20 years.

Industry Growth and Policy Support

China’s prefabricated construction policy has been a major catalyst. The 2025 notice on the "Renewal" Work of Home Kitchen and Bathroom and standards like JGJ/T467-2018 have mandated stricter quality controls and promoted modular solutions. As a result, the prefabricated bathroom market is projected to surpass ¥100 billion (US$14 billion) by 2025, growing at a CAGR of over 15%.

Global players like Durapods and CID Associates are also adopting this technology, with projects ranging from luxury hotels to industrial facilities. Their modular units, equipped with smart interfaces and customizable layouts, align with international sustainability goals.

Real-World Applications

A recent renovation project in Guangzhou demonstrated the technology’s impact: a traditional bathroom overhaul requiring months was replaced by a 4-day installation of a modular unit with slip-resistant, quick-drying floors and integrated smart controls. Similarly, commercial projects using common bearing plug-in type prefabricated integrated bathroom reported 40-50% shorter construction timelines and 10-20% cost savings.

Leading manufacturers like LIXIL Water Technology Group are further innovating, debuting products like the Aqua Intelligence® system and CleansePlus micro-nano bubble technology to enhance water efficiency and user experience.

Future Outlook

As the industry evolves, experts predict a shift toward flexible customization and AI-driven design tools. Modular bathroom units, already a staple in hotels and apartments, are poised to enter residential markets globally, offering homeowners hassle-free, eco-friendly solutions.
