30ft Expandable Container House Features
- Spacious and practical: When unfolded, the usable area is approximately 56 square meters (603 square feet), allowing for flexible division into a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Furniture placement is unrestricted, making it ideal for both daily living and work.
- Efficient thermal insulation: The 75mm EPS sandwich panels in the walls and roof effectively insulate against temperature fluctuations, keeping the interior cool in summer and warm in winter, reducing the need for air conditioning and heating, and lowering energy costs.
- Sturdy and durable structure: The galvanized steel frame and high-quality building materials extend the life of the structure and can withstand winds of up to 120 km/h. The core material of the walls and roof is non-flammable and offers excellent fire resistance.
- Quick and convenient installation: Approximately 90% of the components are pre-assembled at the factory, allowing on-site installation to be completed in just three hours by just four people, significantly saving labor time and costs and eliminating the need for complex construction processes.
- Flexible and Customizable Layouts: A variety of layout options are available, including the number of bedrooms (0-6) that can be customized. Kitchens can be designed in L- or straight-line configurations, and bathrooms are pre-equipped with basic fixtures to meet your individual needs.
- Complete Amenities: The entire home is pre-wired, including sockets, switches, and power outlets in all rooms. Plumbing is also pre-installed, with hot and cold water inlets for the kitchen sink, bathroom sink, toilet, and shower. Electrical wiring complies with multiple international standards, including Australian-certified wiring with a 50A rear input and waterproof connector.


Why Are More People Choosing Foldable Homes over Traditional Buildings?
- High Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to traditional construction, 30-foot expandable container homes are more affordable. Prefabrication reduces labor costs and utilizes materials efficiently, providing the same high-quality living or office space at a fraction of the cost of traditional construction.
- Time and Cost Savings: The fast installation process allows homes to be operational quickly, whether meeting emergency housing needs or facilitating time-sensitive projects. This allows for rapid implementation and increased efficiency.
- Wide Applications: They can be used as daily living quarters, vacation homes, small offices, and temporary construction sites, flexibly adapting to various scenarios and meeting basic needs without requiring additional modifications.
- Easy Relocation: To relocate, disconnect utilities like water and electricity, remove easily removable components like kitchen cabinets and partitions, and then load them onto a transport vehicle via crane. Relocation is quick and easy, eliminating the need for rebuilding.
- Low Maintenance: Galvanized steel and PVC materials resist corrosion and wear, requiring minimal maintenance. The sandwich panels and sealed design minimize water seepage and air leakage, resulting in lower long-term costs.
