Chongqing Housing Container Project

The Chongqing Housing Container Project uses containers as carriers, which are widely applied in various scenarios such as offices, residences, and commerce through renovation or innovative design, offering advantages like rapid deployment, flexible mobility, and low cost.

I. Main Types and Characteristics

1. Container-based Office Buildings Using standard containers (20-foot and 40-foot) as carriers, these buildings are structurally reinforced and internally renovated to form independent office units. They can be used as single units or combined with multiple units, suitable for project departments, construction site command centers, and other scenarios. Their advantages include sturdy structure, convenient transportation, and features such as wind resistance, fire resistance, and earthquake resistance. For example, the construction site dormitory container houses provided by Chongqing Pinjian Integrated Housing Co., Ltd. use rock wool interlayers for sound insulation and thermal insulation, with a service life of over 20 years.

2. Expandable and Customized Houses Expandable containers add side or end expansion modules to the base container, increasing usable area by 30%-50% to meet the space needs of long-term on-site offices. Customized creative houses incorporate elements such as glass curtain walls and wood grain finishes for brand displays and cultural and creative parks. For example, Chongqing Deleisi Container Co., Ltd. can customize irregular containers, modular homestays, and even personalized mobile kiosks.

3. Folding and Modular Houses Folding houses are compressed for transportation and quickly expanded on-site (single unit expansion time ≤ 30 minutes), suitable for frequent relocation needs such as exploration teams and temporary command centers. Modular houses combine light steel frames with color steel plates for on-site modular assembly, allowing flexible expansion based on the number of occupants and functions, commonly used in temporary offices in parks or event planning sites.

II. Application Scenarios and Cases

1. Infrastructure Projects and Construction Site Accommodation Chongqing's large-scale infrastructure projects have a prominent demand for temporary worker accommodation. Residential containers, with their sturdy structure, waterproof and rust-proof features, and support for combined assembly, have become standard on construction sites. For example, Chongqing Le'anju Container Leasing Co., Ltd. provided orange residential container houses for the Vanke Caiyun Lake project, and Zhongke Container provided double-decker dormitories for the Jiangjin Wuyue Plaza project.

2. Commerce and Public Services Container houses are increasingly used in commercial fields, such as street shops, mobile exhibitions, and temporary public toilets. The container leasing project in Shapingba District's Shiguangli Community Park rents out a 100-square-meter area for 3,300 yuan per month for commercial operations. Additionally, containers can be transformed into newsstands, guard posts, and other public service facilities.

3. Cultural Tourism and High-end Scenarios Customized container houses, combined with creative design, can be used in cultural tourism projects and high-end temporary offices. For example, the customized container shop case in Ciqikou enhances visual appeal through glass curtain walls and irregular structures.

III. Service Models and Advantages Chongqing's container enterprises offer one-stop services including "design-production-installation-leasing-after-sales," supporting personalized customization and second-hand recycling. For example, Zhonglai Container Activity House leasing prices are as low as 6 yuan per day, including installation; Pinjian emphasizes "fast assembly, no foundation required, and easy mobility," suitable for short-term or emergency needs.
