Matthew Goff, Operations Director, RoanKabin said: "We were delighted to be awarded this contract from Cork University Hospital. RoanKabin was conscious that patients and busy staff would be on-site during the entire construction phase, so the building had to go in quickly and without disturbing day- to-day operations at the hospital. RoanKabin has delivered a high quality, permanent modular facility in a short period of time that will service the needs of both patients and doctors at the hospital for years to come."

The project took 26 weeks to complete.
