The two offsite manufacturers said combining the modular knowledge, scale and financial strength of York-headquartered Portakabin with the specialist healthcare expertise of Darwin Group would transform the offer to healthcare clients.<\/p>\n

Portakabin said Darwin Group represents a highly strategic acquisition that fitted its longer-term strategic ambitions to address the growing demand for temporary and permanent building solutions across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
