PORTAKABIN subsidiary Yorkon has won a £6m contract to build a minor injuries unit for the NHS.
Yorkon, which specialises in off-site construction, will make the building in its York factory, and then send it by road to Portsmouth where it will be assembled at the hospital.
The building will be made of 72 steel-framed modules.
Engineering company Amec designed the minor injuries unit and walk-in centre.
Keith Blanshard, of Yorkon, said: "The use of off-site construction will significantly reduce the programme time."
