MMH Prestige Homes Inc.

Prestige Homes Inc.

Prestige Homes pioneered the concept of custom designed homes in
Atlantic Canada in 1973. John deWinter, President of Prestige
Homes, and three partners, all well experienced in the industry,
joined forces with the idea of prefabrication - assembling all
the parts in advance - purchased 16 acres of land in the Sussex,
NB area and constructed their first assembly plant and hired 50
employees, many of whom are still employed with the company.
The first home came off the production line in April 1974.
Within 18 months the firm was producing 200 homes per year.
Today that figure has more than doubled and at present Prestige
has produced over 7,500 Homes. Now with four plants on 25
acres,
Prestige employees over 150 employees, including 25 design and
support staff.

As well as mini, modular and panelized homes, Prestige
manufactures commercial office buildings, cottages duplexes,
apartments, condominiums and motels. Some of the local projects
have been a 28 room, three suite hotel called the Amsterdam Inn
in Sussex, NB, a 24 unit apartment complex in Saint John, NB,
and a four unit condominium in Moncton, NB, to mention a few.
Prestige believes in the client becoming a partner in design
where they can take part in designing their own floor plans.
Prestige prides itself in producing highly efficient and
well-drained homes with their customers in superior workmanship
and quality. All Prestige homes are produced according to the
National Building and Canadian Standards Association codes. An
excellent Quality Control System and Warranty Program is
maintained. Prestige is a registered R2000 builder.

The Department of Economic Development and Tourism awarded MMH
Prestige Homes with the Export Achievement Award in 1988 for its
sales into United States. Along with a strong Atlantic
Provinces and U.S. market, the firm has developed products that
meet housing needs around the world. Homes have been shipped to
the Middle East, Japan, China, The Netherlands, Romania, Russia
and Germany. These homes are built in wall sections and
components small enough to be shipped in 40 ft., containers and
are erected on site at the destination. Prestige`s recent
projects overseas of this type have been to China in the fall of
1997 of fifty executive-style homes for the Shanghai Links
Project.

In September of 1995, we shipped homes to Germany that were
shipped completely finished, the modular homes were shipped in
two halves and the mini homes in one piece. They were rolled
inside a vessel`s hold and delivered to the destination in
Germany intact. This was the first venture of its kind for the
Port of Saint John.

Canadian Housing has a good reputation around the world and
People recognize Canadian Houses as being both cost effective in
terms of its common wood-frame construction and energy efficient
for cold climate.

A new development is that Prestige was pleased to learn that one
of our Panelized homes was the winner of the New Brunswick Home
Builders Association's 'New Single Family Home' award for 1999.

Environmentally Sustainable Architecture.
The concept of sustainability is an important underlying principle of good architectural design. A new generation of facilities has emerged that incorporates this new paradigm throughout the design approach, as well as within the actual fabric of the building. Materials used in construction and in furnishing interiors often come from depleted resources. Often they require manufacturing processes notorious for air and water pollution, or energy usage. The new architectural paradigm is based on ecologically sensitive and environmentally sustainable principals, and becomes an integral part of the entire design process.

Energy Efficient Housing
The firm is a registered R2000 builder that, in a joint venture with the C.M.H.A. has tried to educate people to the advantages of the R2000 product.
