Sirius Flex Adds Prefabricated Restroom, Vending, Shelter and Security Units to EV Charging Sites

Sirius Buildings has introduced Sirius Flex, a prefabricated amenity building designed specifically for electric vehicle charging locations. The modular solution is now available in both the United States and Australia, with the U.S. serving as the company’s primary target market.

Sirius Flex is designed to address a common challenge facing many public charging sites: a lack of basic amenities for drivers during charging sessions. The building combines a family restroom, snack and beverage vending machines, sheltered seating, and 24/7 lighting and security into a single standardized structure. Manufactured off-site and delivered as a complete unit, Sirius Flex allows charging operators to quickly add essential services without the time and expense of designing and constructing custom buildings at every location.

The company says the solution is suitable for a wide range of charging environments, including highway fast-charging hubs, rural charging corridors, urban charging stations, and future electric fleet and trucking facilities.

As EV adoption continues to grow, driver expectations are changing. Electric vehicles accounted for roughly 10% of new light-duty vehicle sales in the United States during 2025, according to Sirius Buildings. While American EV sales have slowed compared to the surge seen before federal tax credits expired, global demand continues to accelerate. According to Benchmark Minerals Intelligence, worldwide EV sales are up 27% year over year in June, compared to the same period in 2025.

California’s new EV incentive is expected to increase EV adoption in that state, and other states may follow suit, undoing federal mistakes.

As EVs become more mainstream, drivers increasingly expect charging stops to offer the same conveniences found at traditional roadside travel centers, including clean restrooms, seating areas, food options, and well-lit surroundings.

While charging speeds have improved significantly and route-planning technology has become more sophisticated, public fast charging still requires drivers to spend time at a location. Sirius argues that enhancing the charging experience has become just as important as expanding charging infrastructure itself.

The broader charging industry is already moving in this direction. Major operators are investing in larger, destination-style charging hubs that provide a more comfortable experience. Examples include Electrify America’s flagship charging station in San Francisco, and IONNA’s Rechargery locations, which combine fast charging with food, restrooms, and customer amenities.

Founded in Sydney, Australia, Sirius Buildings comes from a background in modular construction and design systems.

EV adoption is booming in Australia. In July 2026, The Drive reported that electric vehicles accounted for nearly a quarter of all new cars sold in Australia in June 2026, marking what is widely considered the strongest month ever recorded for the country’s automotive market.

The company manufactures its own steel components and says the Sirius Flex concept was developed after extensive discussions with charging network operators in both the United States and Australia, as well as the company’s own experiences as EV drivers navigating public charging infrastructure.
