Yongchang Mobile Toilets
The following is an overview of mobile toilets in Yongchang:
Manufacturers: There are two main manufacturers in the Yongchang area. Gansu Qihang Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. is located in the Yongchang Town Industrial Park, Liangzhou District, Wuwei City, and its business covers the research and development, production, sales, and installation of mobile toilets. Guting Metal Products, as a local enterprise, has focused on the research and development and production of mobile toilets in Jinchang for more than ten years. Its main models adopt a double-layer hollow galvanized steel frame + 1.2mm 304 stainless steel cladding structure, emphasizing weather resistance and structural strength.
Product Types and Specifications: Currently, mainstream products are divided into three categories according to structural processes:
- Steel Structure Welded Type: Using galvanized square tubes as the frame and covered with color-coated steel plates or stainless steel plates, it has strong load-bearing capacity and flexible modification, suitable for heavy-duty scenarios such as mining areas and construction sites. The applicable temperature range is -30℃ to +50℃. The installation period for a single unit is 1 to 2 days. The standard configuration includes a stainless steel squatting pan, LED lighting, an exhaust fan, and a washbasin. The five-year maintenance cost is approximately 1200–1800 yuan per unit per year.
- Modular Assembled Type: Standardized wall panels, roof panels, and floor platforms are pre-assembled in the factory and connected with bolts on-site. A single unit can be installed in 4–6 hours, suitable for short-term and high-frequency use scenarios such as cultural tourism festivals and exhibitions. The applicable temperature range is -25℃ to +45℃. The standard configuration is the same as that of the steel structure welded type, with optional intelligent sensor faucets and solar power supply modules. The five-year maintenance cost is approximately 900–1500 yuan per unit per year.
- Integrated Injection-Molded Type: Molded as a whole with high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it has no welds, is corrosion-resistant, and has good self-cleaning properties, but its thermal insulation performance is relatively weak. It is mostly used for short-term deployment in the south or in summer. The applicable temperature range is 0℃ to +40℃ (it needs to be equipped with a heating cable to survive the winter). The installation period for a single unit is 2–3 hours. The standard configuration includes a basic toilet and simple lighting, with limited expansion interfaces. The five-year maintenance cost is approximately 2000–2600 yuan per unit per year (due to low compatibility of accessories).
Selection Points: In Jinchang City and the Hexi Corridor region, three key points need to be focused on:
- Structural Weather Resistance: Jinchang has a temperate continental arid climate with an average annual temperature of 8.5℃. The winter low temperature can reach -25℃, and the ultraviolet radiation is strong. Materials need to pass freeze-resistance and anti-aging practical tests.
- Modular Adaptability: In most scenarios, toilets are required to be flexibly combined with units such as washrooms, shower rooms, and management rooms. Products that support modular expansion need to be selected.
- Local Service Capability: Local enterprises need to respond to transportation, installation, and winter freeze-proof maintenance to ensure continuous use.
