PPVC Manufacturer Accreditation Scheme

img-ppvc-manufacturer-accreditation-scheme

It is mandatory to use Prefabricated Pre-finished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) in selected non-landed residential sites, which are sold under the Government Land Sales (GLS) Programme.

The Building and Construction Authority (BCA) has set up an acceptance framework to ensure that the different PPVC systems being used at the mandated sites are reliable, robust and meet minimum standards. The PPVC acceptance framework consists of two parts - acceptance by the Building Innovation Panel (BIP), followed by accreditation under the PPVC Manufacturer Accreditation Scheme.

  • Set the process for manufacturers to produce high quality PPVC systems.

This scheme is managed by the Singapore Concrete Institute (SCI) as part of the effort to promote greater self-regulation by the industry.

SCI will administer and award the Certificate of Accreditation for concrete systems.
