Dunhuang Foldable Container House

Admin September 15, 2026

Dunhuang foldable container house is a temporary building that combines the standardized characteristics of containers with the advantages of foldable design. It is convenient, economical, and durable, suitable for various scenarios.

Structure and Specifications

Dunhuang foldable container houses typically adopt standard dimensions, such as a width of 3m, length of 6m, height of 2.8m, a building area of 18m², and a self-weight of 1.5t. This specification design ensures the regularity of the interior space, facilitating the loading, unloading, storage, and management of goods, while also meeting the requirements of standardized transportation, enabling easy conversion between different transportation modes.

Advantages and Characteristics

  • Convenient Production and Installation: The production process of foldable container houses is standardized, with a neat appearance and stable structure, and few welded parts. On-site installation and disassembly are extremely convenient, requiring only 2-3 people to cooperate, and the installation time is short, greatly saving labor and time costs.
  • Low Transportation and Storage Costs: Due to its foldable nature, transportation costs are significantly reduced. A 6m vehicle can carry about 6 sets, and a 17.5m flatbed truck can carry about 20 sets. In terms of storage, one set can be stacked and stored in multiple layers, effectively reducing the demand for storage space.
  • Cost Savings in Use: Compared with traditional color-steel houses and other types of container houses, foldable container houses have certain cost-saving advantages. Their ability to be repeatedly folded and recycled reduces long-term use costs.
  • Superior Performance: They possess fire-resistant, earthquake-resistant, wind-resistant, and leak-proof properties, enabling them to remain stable in various harsh environments and providing safe and reliable protection for occupants.

Application Scenarios

Dunhuang foldable container houses have a wide range of application scenarios, including temporary housing, post-earthquake resettlement, highways, railways, construction, wind power, thermal power, photovoltaic, petroleum, and other fields, as well as rural dilapidated house emergencies. Their modular design principle allows them to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to meet the requirements of different scenarios.
