Builder-facing modular supply for Tennant Creek and the Barkly region, Northern Territory.
Tennant Creek sits inside a major remote-housing push. Under the 10-year remote housing program, 31 new homes and 16 upgrades have been delivered across the Barkly, with a further six new homes and six upgrades planned for 2026-27. A $6.9 million partnership between Venture Housing, Housing Australia and the Territory and Commonwealth governments is funding twelve social and affordable homes, and the 2026 Budget added $5 million toward the Peko Road project under the Housing Australia Future Fund, all framed by the Barkly Regional Deal and a $4 billion remote housing investment.
For builders delivering remote and community housing across the Barkly, modular supply addresses the core remote-build problem: getting consistent, compliant homes built where local trades and on-site time are both in short supply.
Why modular for this region
EcoPrestige is an Australian-controlled supplier of steel-framed volumetric modular building systems. Modules are fabricated offshore under Australian engineering and quality assurance oversight, then delivered and installed to suit the site. We supply builders, developers and head contractors, we do not compete with them for the head contract.
Our systems cover Class 1 to Class 10, including Class 9b commercial and public buildings, and are designed to meet the National Construction Code with evidence of suitability provided. For builders the value is certainty: a controlled factory process, repeatable quality, and a program that is far less exposed to weather, local trade shortages and rework than conventional on-site construction.
Indicative supply cost
As a guide, EcoPrestige modular supply runs from approximately $2,200 to $3,300 per square metre excluding GST, depending on building class, finish level, services and site requirements. This is a supply-and-deliver indication for budgeting only, not a fixed quote. Send us a brief or drawings and we will return a project-specific figure.

Is modular suited to remote community housing?
Yes. Volumetric modular suits repeatable, durable housing for remote communities and reduces the on-site labour a remote build would otherwise need.
