RUBB BUILDINGS LTD

RUBB BUILDINGS LTD

Rubb is a world leader in portable structures of all types. We started making shelters in Norway in 1968 and now have complete engineering, design and production facilities in Norway, the UK and the USA.

MISSION STATEMENT... The Rubb Organization is committed to being the premier supplier of fabric covered portable structures in the world. Conservative engineering, superior product quality and absolute customer satisfaction are the guiding principles through which Rubb achieves this goal.

ABOUT RUBB BUILDINGS

The Rubb Group manufactures prefabricated, portable structures, buildings, and shelters and custom structures for many applications. There are two common features: a well-engineered steel frame and a PVC coated polyester fabric cover which is tensioned over the frame to provide a tight fitting shell. Variations include provision of alternative materials such as steel cladding or aluminium frame members, but essentially the concept of prefabricated, relocatable construction remains. Rubb structures are available in single spans of 3 meters (10 ft.) to over 79 meters (260 ft.) by any length. Standard module distances vary from 3m (10 ft.) to 5m (16 ft.) Multispan options are also available to provide for even larger structures. Side and gable walls of Rubb buildings are vertical to provide maximum space utilization.

A primary advantage of the Rubb design is its ability to be provided in virtually any configuration to suit your needs.

Other major benefits of Rubb structures are their speed of delivery and erection, minimal foundation requirements and complete relocatability or extension at any time. This portability provides several advantages over conventional structures and allows quick response to changing circumstances. Because Rubb products are so easy to deploy or relocate, an investment in a Rubb structure should never be thought of in the conventional terms of "fixed assets". Rubb buildings are often resold and put to an entirely different use elsewhere in the world so there is never a danger of making a serious investment mistake when you specify Rubb.

Rubb has earned a reputation for tackling difficult and unique projects. We have developed substantial structures which can be moved about on wheels or rails or even lifted around a job site in fully erected form. We offer a strong commitment to compliance.

THE VALUE OF A RUBB BUILDING

For most companies the concept of value relates to the total cost of a service or product over its useful life. It takes into account repairs, inspection, maintenance costs as well as the original price.

Rubb has a long, proven track record for providing value to its customers. Most of the facilities we sell have no recorded maintenance in the first ten years of use (this does not take into account willful acts or accidents).

The performance of a Rubb building is not chance or location based, it is built upon sound and practical engineering. Post production hot dip galvanizing of steel frames to ASTM-A123 provides a durable finish for fifty plus years. By using a standard 28 ounce architectural membrane which is high frequency welded, our roof systems are lasting twenty plus years on average.

The foundation of all our processes and systems is our ISO 9001 quality protocols. For over thirty years Rubb has made incremental changes to improve it's products. Rubb is committed to designing facilities that meet the challenges of our customers in both form and function.

Rubb is a cost effective solution that stays a cost effective solution. Please feel free to contact us to find out more advantages of the Rubb Building Systems.
