Founded in 1983, the Modular Building Institute (MBI) is the international non-profit trade association serving commercial modular construction. MBI represents nearly 650 member companies in over 20 countries, including manufacturers, contractors, dealers, architects, owner/developers, and general contractors. MBI's mission is to expand the use of offsite and modular construction through innovative construction practices, outreach and education to the construction community and customers, and recognition of high-quality modular designs.
Headquartered in Charlottesville, Virginia, MBI operates across multiple continents serving two distinct industry segments: permanent modular construction (PMC) and relocatable buildings (RB). The organization provides services to advance the commercial modular construction industry through education of policy makers regarding building codes and hosts the annual World of Modular conference, which attracts industry leaders globally for education, awards, and networking. MBI also gathers and distributes statistical information about the size and growth of the commercial modular construction industry.
