Foreign Prefabricated House Main Body
The prefabricated house main bodies purchased by foreigners are characterized by efficient production and transportation, easy installation, comprehensive internal pre-assembly, competitive pricing, reliable quality, and wide application in commercial infrastructure projects.
Efficient Production and Transportation: The main body of the prefabricated house is manufactured in a factory and then transported to the site for assembly. For example, a foldable modular prefabricated house of approximately 70 square meters can be fully pre-assembled and folded into a container at a factory in Hebei, and then shipped across the Pacific Ocean to the buyer's land in the United States. This production and transportation model significantly enhances efficiency and reduces the time and complexity of on-site construction.
Easy Installation: The installation process of the prefabricated house main body is relatively simple and quick. Typically, three people working with lifting equipment can complete the unfolding of the house main body in one day. For instance, an American couple who purchased an expandable prefabricated house, along with the husband's father, used lifting equipment to unfold the house main body in just one day after it arrived on their land.
Comprehensive Internal Pre-assembly: During factory production, internal facilities such as bedrooms, kitchens, and bathrooms are already pre-assembled in the prefabricated house main body. Taking the house purchased by the American couple as an example, it was pre-equipped with a separate bedroom, an open kitchen, and a complete independent bathroom. Upon receiving the house, buyers only need to perform simple arrangements and decorations before moving in.
Competitive Pricing: The prefabricated house main body offers a certain price advantage. For example, the total cost for a house, including the house body, ocean freight, customs duties, and miscellaneous expenses, amounts to $28,689, which is comparable to the budget for an ordinary overseas family car. Among these costs, the ex-factory price of the bare house is $15,800, and when combined with ocean freight, U.S. import duties, inland transportation, and lifting expenses, the total landing cost is $28,689.
Reliable Quality: The quality of the prefabricated house main body is also guaranteed. Its walls are made of wood-grain metal panels with foam insulation layers behind them; the windows feature double-glazed units that seal tightly when closed; the workmanship and surface finish look good, and all the areas where sealant is applied are well done.
Wide Application in Commercial Infrastructure Projects: The orders for prefabricated house main bodies purchased by overseas clients are mainly concentrated in commercial and supporting infrastructure projects such as hotels, long-term rental apartments, elderly care facilities, worker dormitories, office buildings, and modular data centers, rather than standalone permanent residences.
