Haikou Container Refitted Housing

Admin September 15, 2026

Haikou container refitted housing is based on fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) refrigerated containers. Through structural reinforcement and functional modular design, it achieves residential functionality, featuring structural stability, customizability, and rapid assembly/disassembly. It is suitable for construction site housing, field operations, and temporary buildings.

Material and Structural Characteristics
Haikou container refitted housing primarily uses FRP refrigerated containers as its foundational structure. These containers feature a plate-frame structure, connected through welding and rivets, ensuring overall stability. Their load-bearing capacity is uniformly 10 tons, with a total weight range of 1522kg to 4103kg. Self-weight and volume vary by model but all meet basic load-bearing requirements. FRP material is corrosion-resistant and aging-resistant, adapting well to Hainan's high-temperature and high-humidity environment, extending the housing's service life.

Functional Modular Design
The refitting process focuses on functional expansion and improved residential comfort. Insulation is achieved by adding materials such as wood panels and iron sheets internally, creating a warm winter and cool summer effect. The spatial layout is customizable, including window and door opening positions and internal partition designs, supporting single-story or multi-story construction. For example, services provided by Haikou Xianchuangda Trading Co., Ltd. and Hainan Zhuocheng Integrated Housing Co., Ltd. include design, installation, and maintenance of container housing, meeting users' personalized needs for living space.

Application Scenarios and Advantages

  1. Construction Site Housing: Serving as project manager offices, supervision meeting rooms, etc., addressing the lack of hardware facilities in remote construction sites. Its modular design supports rapid assembly/disassembly, adapting to the periodic relocation needs of construction sites.
  2. Field Operation Housing: Providing mobile dormitories and offices for expedition teams or film crews, with complete internal facilities and spacious interiors, surpassing the limitations of traditional tents.
  3. Temporary Residential Solutions: For instance, Aunt Yu's family in a case study refitted a container into a long-term residence, legally resolving their housing issue after illegal structure demolition by signing a lease agreement with the village committee.
