The Boldt Group is reimagining how buildings are planned, designed and delivered by launching Bildt, a modular and prefabrication manufacturing company. Bildt was created in response to interest from facility owners, general contractors and architects to reduce project costs and increase speed to market. Industry veterans Melanie Taylor and Ben Bruns lead the new organization. As vice president of manufacturing, Taylor focuses on fabrication and manufacturing; as vice president of modular, Bruns leads sales and marketing efforts.
Bildt manufactures modular buildings, slide-in room and bathroom pods and a variety of components, such as headwalls, exterior wall panels and systems for commercial markets, including healthcare.
While fabrication takes place in the company’s offsite facility in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, the site team coordinates construction activities in the field. Prefabricated panels and components are tailored to project specifications.
Boldt’s prefabrication and modular construction business has grown since its first modular project in the 1980s and accelerated significantly during the pandemic when hospitals needed to add space quickly, efficiently and uniformly.
The company has performed work from coast to coast in the U.S., including both freestanding and modular additions to existing hospital campuses. For more details, visit bildt.com.
