Container House Export from Dongguan

Container houses can be exported from Dongguan overseas, and a large-scale industrial practice has been formed.

I. Industrial Foundation for Container House Export in Dongguan

Dongguan and its surrounding areas (such as Shenzhen and Huizhou) have formed a complete modular construction industry chain. Taking Shenzhen Xishengqian Activity Board House Co., Ltd. as an example, it has a production base in Dongguan, mainly producing container activity rooms, residential container houses, and other products, with the following core advantages:

1. Standardized Production: Using a light steel structure system and standard container corrugated steel plates, it achieves factory prefabricated production. Modular components can be quickly assembled into complete living units (including walls, floors, ceilings, pipelines, and sanitary facilities).
2. Product Diversity: It provides container houses of different models (such as jzx, jzxf), supports customized needs, covers various purposes such as accommodation, office, and commercial use, and has flexible specifications and sizes (for example, the standard size is 6 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 3 meters high).
3. Performance Advantages: The products have characteristics such as fire resistance (Class A fire-resistant materials), wind resistance (withstanding winds of up to Level 15), earthquake resistance (withstanding earthquakes of up to Level 8), and corrosion resistance (steel plate exterior walls with a service life of 15-18 years), adapting to different climatic environments.

II. Export Practice and Market Coverage

The export of container houses from Dongguan has formed a large-scale effect:

1. Export Data: In the first quarter of 2026, the export growth rate of prefabricated buildings in China reached 45%. In the first four months, the Shenzhen port exported "activity houses" worth 1.68 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 19.6%, with products sent to more than 150 countries and regions.
2. Typical Cases: Dongguan Port Phase II Terminal once exported 2,840 tons of modular houses to Dammam Port in Saudi Arabia for local infrastructure construction; Changshu Yazhi Modular Construction Co., Ltd. also exported container-type activity rooms to oil camps in Iraq.
3. Application Scenarios: The exported products are widely used in overseas schools, hospitals, hotels, residences, data centers, and livelihood projects, such as hotels in Southeast Asia, data centers in the Middle East, and livelihood projects on Pacific islands.

III. Export Process and Policy Support

The export of container houses from Dongguan relies on a complete logistics and customs clearance system:

1. Logistics Efficiency: The customs enhances cargo turnover efficiency through measures such as "green channels" and priority berth arrangements, achieving "seamless" customs clearance.
2. Regulatory Model: It adopts a combined approach of "on-site inspections + video surveillance + data comparison" to strengthen loading supervision and ensure the safe and efficient exit of goods.
3. Industry Trend: China's construction industry is transforming from "labor export" to "industrial product export," with modular construction exports becoming a new growth point. Dongguan, as a core production area, continues to benefit.
