III. Factors Contributing to Price Differences

  1. Materials and Craftsmanship: Durable materials like metal-carved panels and containers incur higher costs, while paper or simple plastic materials are relatively inexpensive.
  2. Functional Configuration: Models with restrooms, shower rooms, or smart systems are significantly more expensive than basic models.
  3. Usage Scenario: Rental prices for temporary events are higher than long-term purchases, and customized needs (such as antique designs) drive up costs.

It is recommended to choose the appropriate type based on actual needs (such as duration of use, scale of the scenario, and functional requirements) and contact suppliers to confirm the latest quotes and service details.
