What ORANA by AJC Modular does

ORANA by AJC Modular is the premium modular housing brand of AJC Portables Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary limited company headquartered at Luscombe, Queensland. The company designs, manufactures, and delivers factory-built modular homes and granny flats nationwide across Australia, with full turnkey installation available in select regions. Its 18-design product portfolio comprises five modular homes (ranging from 54.4 m² one-bedroom units to a 94.9 m² three-bedroom home) and thirteen granny flats (from compact 20.4 m² studios to 67.2 m² three-bedroom layouts), all engineered to Class 1a dwelling standards under the National Construction Code.

ORANA's underlying technology is a purpose-built, weather-protected factory environment with precision-controlled processes, utilising 92mm engineered steel wall frames, a W10x22 steel skid beam sub-floor system, engineered roof framing, and structural insulated panels achieving R15 wall, R15 underfloor, and R26 roof insulation to meet 7-star Australian energy efficiency requirements. Buildings are delivered fully assembled rather than constructed on site, enabling approximately 15-week build cycles and one-day on-site installation. A 10-year structural warranty backs every building.

The business model is primarily one-time hardware sales of modular dwellings under fixed-price contracts, supplemented by site preparation and turnkey installation services (council approval, town planning, engineering documentation, crane and connections). Revenue is diversified across three customer segments — individual homeowners (primary), property investors, and developers (secondary) — sold via a hybrid GTM combining self-serve digital tools (3D Design Studio, Instant Pricing tool, Site Cost Calculator, Finance Pre-Qualification via partner Finance Your Way) with a consultative sales team and a physical QLD showroom. All buildings are produced in a single Queensland facility, with nationwide delivery handled through transport partners.
