What does a precast plant cost?
Reasons for a detailed cost analysis before you start the construction work
A precast concrete plant is far more than just a production facility - it is a strategic investment in the future of construction. The costs of factory planning are crucial to the economic viability of the project. Whether building a new plant, using existing facilities or restructuring existing plants - each initial scenario has different requirements and cost factors.
Cost transparency and planning accuracy
Prilhofer Consulting supports companies/investors worldwide in the decision-making process: Which cost factors influence the planning of a precast concrete plant? Which investment areas are essential? And how can an economically viable solution be developed as early as the planning stage? We create transparency in the financial matters and planning reliability for your investment.
Factors influencing the costs of building/expanding a precast plant
The costs for a precast plant (building system & building products) depend mainly on the following aspects:
- Product range: Different elements (building system & building products) require different machines, formwork, processes (e.g. slabs, hollow core slabs, solid walls, double walls, sandwich walls, etc.).
- Production capacity and cycle times: Higher output requires more space and a higher level of automation.
- Degree of automation and IT structure: From semi-automated to fully automated plants. Depending on the objective, a need for CAD/CAM, ERP, PPS systems
- Property / Production building: size, condition, topography/shape, and location
- Location-related factors: Regional differences in construction and labour costs, regulatory requirements and infrastructural connections
- Extensibility requirements: A plant that is to be extendible or upgradeable at a later stage must be planned differently today in line with future requirements.
- Logistics and connections: distance to construction sites, railway connections, truck access, internal material flow
- Number of shifts/staff demand: Affects operating and investment costs.

Investment ranges & costs typical for the realisation of a precast plant
A successful precast concrete plant requires investment in numerous, coordinated fields. From strategic planning to production buildings and technology to commissioning/acceptance:
- Strategic consulting, master planning and feasibility studies
- Production buildings, storage areas, traffic routes and technical buildings
- Machines and systems - tailored to the products and product quantities to be manufactured and to the building types
- IT/CAD/CAM systems, production planning and control
- Employee training and production start-up
- Coordination of assembly, commissioning and acceptance
With the right planning, you will receive the basis for an efficient plant that will strengthen your competitive and market position and secure a successful future for your company.
Prilhofer Consulting accompanies you through all investment steps.
Think economically - right from the start!
How economically a precast plant works depends significantly on the right decisions made at the planning stage.
However, industrial prefabrication or building with precast concrete elements or hybrid precast elements (wood+concrete) is economical, sustainable and efficient. The precast concrete construction system saves costs, resources such as materials and time and allows buildings to be completed up to 5 times faster.
Prilhofer Consulting analyses the location-specific framework conditions and determines which investments make sense in the long term. The basis for clear decisions and sustainable success is a well-founded estimate of the investment costs and a detailed profitability calculation.
