Industrialized housing solutions that accelerate delivery and sustainability—helping tackle Europe’s housing shortage and support Ukraine’s reconstruction.

Established in March 2020, Daiwa House Europe B.V. is dedicated to delivering innovative housing solutions across Europe. In collaboration with Daiwa House Modular Europe and our affiliate company Jan Snel, we specialize in industrialized modular construction to provide scalable, sustainable, and high-quality living environments. Our modular approach is smarter, faster, and cleaner, as it allows us to build under controlled conditions, significantly reducing construction time, CO₂ emissions, and material waste. This philosophy, championed by Daiwa House Modular Europe and Jan Snel, enables us to offer flexible solutions that cater to the evolving needs of modern communities, with distinct quality and health and safety advantages.

We cater to a diverse array of residential and commercial needs, including rental apartments crafted to meet the increasing demand for flexible urban living, student housing designed to offer comfort, affordability, and a sense of community, senior living accommodations for an aging population, hotel developments that combine modular efficiency with high hospitality standards, healthcare and first aid accommodations for both temporary and permanent facilities, educational buildings ranging from individual classrooms to entire campuses, government and municipal solutions including refugee accommodation and public service buildings, and business offices offering permanent or flexible solutions for qualitative corporate and industry needs.

Driven by our mission to address the urgent need for affordable housing, we strive to contribute to social well-being and support the reconstruction of Ukraine through resilient and innovative building technologies.

Expanding into the UK: Elephant Park Plot H11B Project

In October 2023, our UK subsidiary, Daiwa House UK Limited (DHUK), inaugurated its first residential development in London: the Elephant Park Plot H11B Project, a collaborative venture with Lendlease Residential (CG) Limited. This project includes two residential towers (25 and 11 storeys) encompassing 259 units, ranging from studios to 3-bedroom apartments, a prime location just 2 km from the City of London with excellent transport links via Elephant & Castle Station, amenities such as gyms, coworking spaces, rooftop lounges, and private gardens, and an environmentally conscious setting within the Elephant Park Project, featuring net-zero carbon energy systems, green infrastructure, and biodiversity initiatives.

This development underscores our dedication to leveraging our expertise in industrialized housing, shortened construction timelines, and high-quality design to address the UK’s housing shortage.

New Branch in Poland

In August 2025, we proudly opened our Polish branch in Warsaw, marking a significant milestone in our European expansion. This strategic move enables us to better serve the Central and Eastern European market, bringing our modular expertise and housing solutions to a region with a growing demand for sustainable urban development.

While modular housing remains our core strength, we are also exploring a broader range of opportunities, including traditional construction methods, commercial real estate, and innovative urban solutions as part of our long-term regional strategy.
