Product Overview

Our prefabricated housing solutions cover the full range from basic site accommodation to permanent living quarters. Three product lines: prefab panel houses (活动板房), welded container houses (集装箱房), and flat-pack folding container houses (打包箱房) — each designed for different use cases and budget levels.

Activity panel houses (活动板房) are the most economical option — lightweight steel frame with sandwich panel walls and roof, suitable for construction camps and temporary facilities. Container houses (集装箱房) are welded steel box units, stackable, and ideal for longer-term site offices, dormitories, and guard houses. Flat-pack folding houses (打包箱房) collapse for shipping — one 20ft container can carry 2-3 complete units, reducing shipping costs significantly.

All units come complete with doors, windows, electrical pre-wiring, and floor finishes. Customizable layouts, sizes, and interior fit-out levels available. A 4-person crew can assemble a flat-pack unit in 30 minutes without special tools.
