Hire or Purchase a Temporary Building With Neptunus

Temporary construction: developed to order

When you need space, you usually need it under pressure, an operational bottleneck, a live refurbishment, a capacity gap, or a programme that can’t wait for conventional construction. Neptunus delivers temporary buildings that are designed for real-day-to-day use, not short-term compromise. They’re engineered to be practical, compliant, and adaptable, whether you need a fast interim facility or a semi-permanent building that stays in place for years.

From retail outlets to airport terminals, sports and leisure facilities to theatres and showrooms, our temporary building solutions are used wherever continuity matters, and disruption carries a cost.

We provide the option to hire or buy temporary buildings to suit your timeframe and procurement approach. Flexibility in dimensions and design means the structure can be dismantled after use or relocated to a more permanent location.

What is a temporary building?

A temporary building is a modular, engineered structure designed to provide additional operational space quickly, with minimal disruption compared to traditional construction. In practical terms, it’s a building that can be installed, used, adapted, and, when required, removed or redeployed.

Neptunus temporary buildings are designed to deliver the look and feel of permanent facilities and can be fully insulated, including options aligned with Energy Label A, which is important for comfort, operating costs and sustainability targets.

When you hire or buy a demountable building from Neptunus, you’re choosing a structure designed to be reusable and recyclable, often a key factor when procurement teams are weighing whole-life value rather than just initial cost.

Is a temporary building structure right for my business?

If you’re expanding premises but don’t want to commit to a permanent footprint too early, temporary buildings are often the sensible option. They allow you to increase capacity while keeping flexibility if requirements change, because operational demand rarely holds still.

Our structures are designed to be quick and efficient to build with minimal disruption to your operation.

Because buildings are prefabricated and modular, they can also be more cost-efficient than permanent construction while still being tailored to what you need, layout, specification and finish level included.
