Armadilla named among Scotland’s most innovative companies.
Scotland Innovation Week
We’re delighted to share that Armadilla has been selected to feature during Scotland’s first National Innovation Week.
The week celebrates Scotland’s legacy of invention and the people building the next wave of transformative industries - culminating in a National Innovation Summit in Edinburgh.
What we’re showcasing
Our case study - published as part of the National Innovation Week showcase - highlights how Armadilla reimagines flexible, premium accommodation for hospitality operators: design-forward units engineered for fast deployment, low environmental impact, and a memorable guest experience. From our base in Mayfield, we design and manufacture complete units that integrate energy-monitoring, efficient heating/cooling, and digital connectivity - baking sustainability and comfort into the build, rather than bolting it on later.
The goal isn’t just beautiful spaces. It’s operationally smart, future-ready accommodation that performs for guests and for the bottom line.
Why this matters for hospitality now
Speed & scalability: Flexible factory-built units shorten on-site disruption and help operators expand quickly to meet demand spikes or pilot new concepts with lower risk.
Sustainability by design: Integrated energy systems and material choices reduce environmental footprint and operating costs over time.
Experience, elevated: Thoughtful Biophilic design, acoustics, lighting, and thermal comfort create a guest stay that feels both restorative and refined - key for wellness retreats, eco-destinations, and luxury outdoor hospitality.
Made in Scotland, built for the world
National Innovation Week isn’t just a celebration; it’s a signal of Scotland’s strengths - advanced manufacturing, data/digital, health & life sciences, and the energy transition. We’re proud to contribute from the design-and-build side of hospitality, drawing on Scotland’s skilled workforce and supply chains to deliver products that travel globally.
Inside the Armadilla approach
Design that works as hard as it looks: Every line and finish serves durability, maintainability, and a premium feel guests notice immediately.
Systems thinking: Energy monitoring, connectivity, and efficient climate control are part of the core spec - so operators can manage performance, not just appearance.
Sustainable construction: Off-site manufacturing reduces waste and site impact; transportable units preserve landscapes while unlocking new destinations.
