Basic Information

What is a container house?

A container house is a durable, modular building solution based on standard shipping containers or customized container structures. After professional structural reinforcement, internal renovation and exterior decoration, Buildgram container houses can be directly used for living, office work, warehousing, retail and other commercial or residential scenarios.

Expandable container house vs. traditional prefab house?

Buildgram Expandable Container House: Adopts integral welded steel structure, featuring high overall stability, strong durability, one-piece hoisting and integral relocation. It supports fast on-site installation, excellent airtightness, waterproof performance and longer service life.

Traditional Prefab House: Assembled with separate light steel frames and wall panels. Although easy to assemble and disassemble, it has weaker integrity, lower wind and earthquake resistance, and inferior sound/thermal insulation compared with expandable container houses.

Are Buildgram container houses safe?

Yes. All Buildgram expandable container houses undergo strict structural reinforcement, professional fireproof treatment, rust prevention and anti-corrosion processing. Our products fully comply with international building safety standards and ensure stable and reliable performance for long-term daily use.

Specifications & Sizes

What standard sizes do Buildgram container houses provide?

We provide complete standard expandable container house sizes for different application scenarios:

  • 10ft: 2.95m × 6.3m × 2.48m
  • 700 Type: 5.9m × 4.8m × 2.48m
  • 20ft: 5.9m × 6.22m × 2.48m
  • 30ft: 9.0m × 6.22m × 2.48m
  • 40ft: 11.8m × 6.22m × 2.48m

Custom widened, heightened and lengthened sizes are also available to support personalized project customization.

Can multiple container houses be spliced and combined?

Yes. Buildgram container houses can be freely spliced horizontally and stacked vertically to create large-space buildings, including offices, staff dormitories, exhibition halls, scenic homestays, construction camps, clinic rooms, retail stores and other customized spaces.

Performance & Configuration

How about thermal insulation and sound insulation?

Buildgram expandable container houses adopt high-quality insulated sandwich panels. The insulation core options include EPS, rock wool and glass wool with thicknesses from 50mm to 75mm, with double-sided PPGI metal cladding. Compared with ordinary prefab houses, our units deliver outstanding heat insulation, cold resistance and sound insulation effects, fully adapting to different seasonal and climatic environments.

What is the fire resistance level?

We provide two grades of fireproof solutions:

Grade A Fireproof: Adopts glass wool, rock wool or magnesium oxide board materials for full fire resistance.

Grade B Fireproof: Uses EPS sandwich panels with cost-effective performance for conventional daily scenarios.

All internal circuits adopt standardized wiring, meeting daily fire safety requirements and CE, SAA international certification standards.

Can they resist strong wind and earthquakes?

Yes. The standard model resists Level 8 winds and Level 6 earthquakes. The upgraded reinforced version supports Level 10 wind resistance, ideal for coastal, windy and high-risk areas.

What internal facilities can be equipped?

Buildgram supports full customized interior configuration, including doors, windows, complete water and electricity systems, independent toilets, air-conditioning reserved positions, beds, storage cabinets, lighting fixtures and power sockets. All units can be finished as ready-to-move-in houses.

Installation & Transportation

How long does it take to install?

A single Buildgram expandable container house can be fully deployed and put into use within 1 working day. Multi-unit combined buildings can be completed within 1 to 3 days with fast on-site assembly.

Is transportation convenient?

Extremely convenient. Standard-sized units can be directly transported by truck with integral hoisting, no disassembly required. It greatly reduces transportation costs and avoids component loss during transit.

Does it require complex foundation treatment?

No complex concrete foundation is needed. Buildgram container houses only require flat and hardened ground, and can be stably placed on flat floors, cement piers or steel support frames.

Service Life & Cost

What is the service life?

With regular daily maintenance, the integral steel structure main body can serve 20–30 years. Proper anti-rust and daily maintenance can further extend the service life.

Can container houses be relocated and reused?

Yes. Buildgram expandable container houses feature an integrated rigid steel structure, supporting multiple hoisting, relocation and repeated use. It is the perfect reusable solution for construction sites, temporary camps and short-term project facilities.

What is the general price range?

The final price depends on size, material configuration and customization requirements. Our mainstream market reference prices:

Standard Economical: $100 – $200 / m²

High-end Custom (Homestay/Office): $200 – $300 / m²

Compliance & Application Scenarios

Do I need official approval to build a container house?

Relevant regulations depend on local urban construction policies:

Temporary use (construction sites, temporary offices): Usually only local filing is required.

Long-term fixed use: Necessary to apply for relevant procedures per local housing and urban planning bureau requirements.

We recommend consulting your local construction department in advance.

Can they be used as residences or scenic homestays?

Absolutely yes. Buildgram customized container houses are widely used as scenic homestays, resort cabins and private residences worldwide. With personalized exterior painting, curtain wall decoration and interior customization, the container building presents a modern, stylish and high-end commercial accommodation effect.
