Saltair is an Australian-owned and operated modular building manufacturer established in 2013 on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. The company quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach, winning its first HIA Innovation in Housing Award in 2015. In 2019, Civil Engineer Steve Bridger, with over 30 years of large-scale project delivery experience, acquired the business, guiding it through significant growth. Saltair continued to accumulate accolades, securing multiple HIA awards in 2021, including Best Modular Home and Best Custom Home. By 2023, the company had completed landmark commercial projects, such as an award-winning modular build for Sunshine Coast Airport, and expanded into multi-storey residential developments, bolstering its mid-rise capabilities. In 2025, Saltair cemented its position as a government partner of choice, being appointed to the Queensland Department of Education panel and the Homes NSW modular taskforce, as well as completing 36 homes for QBuild in Bundaberg, a Master Builders award-winning social housing project.
Saltair specialises in volume-engineered, turnkey modular solutions, leveraging a "modular first" approach while also offering in-situ construction capabilities. Their process is managed entirely in-house, from initial design by their in-house team, through precision manufacturing of steel-framed modules in their factory, to Australia-wide transport and final on-site installation by their crews. This integrated approach ensures consistency, eliminates weather delays, and delivers fully functioning buildings efficiently.
The company builds across a diverse range of sectors, including residential (dream homes, regional housing, retirement villages), commercial, government and social housing, health and aged care, education, tourism, and resource sectors. They pride themselves on delivering tailored designs with custom options to meet specific project demands. Saltair serves clients across metropolitan, regional, and remote locations throughout Australia, reflecting their commitment to local jobs and capabilities through their Australian-based manufacturing. With a track record of over 150 projects delivered and more than $500 million in project value over 13 years, Saltair is a prominent builder in the Australian modular construction industry.
