Old containers in Taicang can be renovated into personalized houses, with multiple companies offering related services and abundant renovation cases.

Renovation Advantages:

  • Excellent Structural Performance: Standard containers inherently possess strong structural strength and good waterproof and windproof properties. Combined with modern thermal insulation materials and window and door designs, they can achieve warmth in winter and coolness in summer, providing a relatively high level of living comfort.
  • Flexible Space: The size can be customized, with options of two meters, four meters, or six meters according to needs. They can also be stacked and combined to achieve a loft effect, meeting different spatial requirements.
  • Diverse Designs: They support personalized designs and can be transformed into various forms such as street trendy pop-up stores, pet houses in the countryside, and two-story villas. Whether for office use, short-term rentals, or self-occupancy, there is no need to follow the traditional decoration path, saving time and effort while offering a unique style.

Renovation Cases:

  • A family of four in a small town in Jiangsu uses containers as their house on the original foundation, equipped with thermal insulation layers. With reasonable space planning and the installation of air conditioners, they are not afraid of cold or heat.
  • A mountain resort hotel abroad is composed of six containers, built on a mountain according to the terrain, forming a courtyard in the middle. The rooms have large floor-to-ceiling windows, and the interior decoration is similar to that of a residential house.
