Logistics & Installation (Key Info)
A folding container house is a modular housing structure made from shipping containers that can be easily folded and transported. They are quick to assemble and can be used for housing, offices, or storage. The advantages include affordability, quick assembly, durability, and portability, making them ideal for temporary use or hard-to-access areas.
The house achieves ventilation with two windows, and an additional window can be added if needed. For hot climates, a socket for an air conditioner is pre-installed on the wall panel.
We provide professional packaging with plastic film to prevent damage during transportation. For shipping, FCL (Full Container Load) is recommended over LCL (Less than Container Load).
