Founded in 2018 and based in Tasmania, Podmatrix has steadily grown into the state’s largest and most respected transportable building company. Specializing in fully prefabricated structures assembled offsite and delivered as completed units, Podmatrix offers clients an efficient and streamlined building solution that minimizes disruption while slashing construction timeframes. Co-owners Zack Harris and Mitchell Walker, both builders by trade, have expertly navigated the business from its early days to become a one-stop-shop for modular buildings across Tasmania. The journey that led Zack and Mitchell to Podmatrix began with them leading another company. After completing their apprenticeships, they formed Visionary Carpentry, a business that focused on renovations, house extensions, and new builds throughout Southern Tasmania. They grew that business to employ 12 people and actually began contracting for Podmatrix, which was then owned by its original directors. When those directors retired, Zack and Mitchell seized the opportunity to purchase the company, marking a significant pivot toward prefab modular construction. “It was a big step up for us, but we worked closely with the previous directors for about a year and were confident we could take the business to the next level,” Zack says. Podmatrix’s core expertise lies in transportable buildings ranging from 40 to 108 square meters. Unlike typical modular homes requiring onsite assembly, Podmatrix’s units are built entirely offsite and delivered as complete, plug-and-play buildings. Once on site, installation primarily involves connecting utilities like power, water, THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE AUSTRALIA
