What are the Types of Panels for Container Houses
Container house panels mainly include steel, aluminum alloy, glass, plastic, sandwich panels, corrugated panels, etc. Different panels have different characteristics and are suitable for different scenarios.
Steel: It is the main structural support material for container houses, including channel steel, angle steel, and steel plates. It has high strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring the structural safety of the house. For example, steel that complies with the national standard GB/T 708, combined with a reasonable keel structure design, can meet the wind resistance requirements of most regions.
Aluminum Alloy: Often used for doors and windows of container houses, it has the advantages of being lightweight, aesthetically pleasing, and corrosion-resistant, while also providing good thermal insulation and heat preservation properties, enhancing the comfort of the house.
Glass: Mainly used for doors, windows, and observation windows, it has the advantages of high transparency, good reflectivity, and corrosion resistance, increasing the lighting and view of the house.
Plastic: Such as plastic pipes and plastic panels, are widely used in container houses. They have the advantages of being lightweight, easy to process, and cost-effective, meeting the needs of different houses.
Sandwich Panels: As the enclosure material for panel houses, they directly affect the user experience and safety. Common types include polystyrene (EPS) sandwich panels, rock wool sandwich panels, and polyurethane (PU) sandwich panels. Among them, rock wool sandwich panels have a fire rating of A1, with no open flame spreading for 30 minutes at 800°C, providing high safety; polyurethane (PU) sandwich panels offer the best thermal insulation but produce harmful gases when burned.
Corrugated Panels: Widely used as an eco-friendly and energy-saving material, they exhibit excellent strength and toughness and are widely applied in the welding of container movable houses. Made by pressing galvanized patterned plates, they are corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, suitable for uses such as container iron sheet decorative panels.
