One Footprint, Refined to the Millimetre.
We build one size because a second size would mean a second set of jigs, a second set of spares and a second set of tolerances to keep. The 700 Series is a single 20-foot footprint — 5.85 × 6.3 m expanded, 37 m² of finished interior — refined across every order we have shipped instead of stretched across a range. If your project needs 30 feet, we will say so. If it needs one size done properly, this is it.
Stainless Where It Folds.
Most expandable units hinge on galvanized steel — a coating over mild steel that chips at the pin and then rusts from the inside out. Ours are 304 stainless: no coating to fail, no rust bleeding onto the floor at the joint, and the same swing resistance after five years of folding and relocation. It costs more per unit, and it is the first thing a competitor will quietly downgrade. Open a wing and look at the hinge before you sign.
An Asset That Moves With the Project.
Camp accommodation usually dies where it was installed. A 20-foot expandable unit folds back to 2.2 m, lifts onto a flatbed and reopens at the next site — the same 37 m² of housing, a second lease of life, no new purchase order. On projects that relocate every eighteen months, accommodation stops being a write-off and starts being a depreciating asset.
We Put the Water Where the House Doesn't Move.
Water is the hardest thing to put inside a building that folds. Every expansion joint moves, and a wet area has to sit on a floor that flexes with it. So the bathroom goes in the fixed core, not the wings: the shower tray is a sealed, tanked pan that bridges the joint instead of sitting on it, and the drain and supply lines run through rigid structure. Before you compare two quotes, ask where the shower drain falls. If it is in a folding section, the joint will find it.
Transportation
Our expandable container house is designed for easy transport and fast installation. It is shipped in a folded configuration.With extensive international logistics experience, we can deliver our products to 90% of countries worldwide. This folded design optimizes freight costs and simplifies shipping. Key components are protected by cushion packaging to avoid damage during transit. Once positioned on-site, the unit can be unfolded and installed rapidly.
A House You Can Sleep in the Week It Arrives.
Most prefab interiors smell of adhesive for a month. Panel cores, flooring glue and cabinet board are where that smell comes from — and what keeps off-gassing through the first summer. We specify E0 low-emission board, water-based flooring adhesive and powder-coated steel instead of solvent paint, so a unit can be occupied as soon as the power is connected. Ask for the panel and board certificates. They are the documents nobody requests until a tenant complains.
The House Is the Last Thing We Still Build by Hand.
A construction site is full of finished products.The switchgear comes assembled. Windows, kitchens, bathroom pods — all of it turns up complete and gets installed. Then the actual building is put together outdoors, in whatever weather that week brings, by a crew that might not be the same crew next month.
We do that part indoors. Steel is cut on jigs, so every frame ends up the same frame. Panels are bonded under pressure rather than glued by hand. Wiring is run and tested at a bench while the wall is still open, because that is the only moment testing is easy.
By the time a unit is wrapped, it has been checked once already. What is left at your site is moving it and connecting it.
A 20-foot expandable house is the smallest version of this. Folded, it ships like cargo. Opened, it is a building. That gap is where most of the cost of normal construction goes, and we have already done it.
We are a professional manufacturer specializing in prefabricated container houses, expandable container houses, foldable container houses and mobile prefab bathrooms. We design, produce and export modular housing solutions for hotels, villas, offices, dormitories, warehouses, workshops and construction sites. Our factory covers an area of 50,000 square meters and is located in Guangzhou. Visitors are welcome.
What is the difference between your floor base and those thin low-cost alternatives?
Low-cost options use extremely thin floor steel plates that deform easily. We adopt thickened hot-dip galvanized floor frames with sealed panels to eliminate gaps for better waterproofing and load-bearing performance.
Some units have their roofs blown off by strong winds in the first winter. How wind-resistant are yours?
The roof adopts structural locking design instead of relying solely on sealant. We can provide wind / typhoon resistance test reports.
How do you avoid misaligned screw holes and slipping self-tapping screws on thin sheets?
All holes are CNC pre-punched for consistent alignment, and thicker base material prevents screws from slipping.
Sharp sheet metal edges may cause cuts. Do you handle this?
All edges are deburred and finished before shipment.
Why can many doors still not close or lock properly after leveling?
This stems from deformed frames and warped panels. Our frames are welded and calibrated with jigs, and door frames are pre-installed and inspected at the factory.
What if the goods arrive dented, with missing screws or wrong parts?
Full inspection is carried out before shipment, and hardware is packed separately after counting. We guarantee replacement of defective parts as stipulated in the contract.
What causes warped panels that push doors out of alignment?
Thin steel plates deform easily with temperature changes. Thickened galvanized panels plus frame bracing reduce warping.
Are you a real factory or just an Alibaba reseller? Is your supply chain transparent?
We own a 50,000 m² factory in Guangzhou. On-site factory visits and live-stream production viewing are available, and our supply chain is traceable.
How is your after-sales service? Many sellers stop replying and refuse to send replacement parts after delivery.
We have formal after-sales terms. Spare parts for factory defects will be sent as agreed. We maintain communication after delivery. Since we are the factory, you can even communicate directly with our management.
Steel structures tend to rust and bring high long-term maintenance costs.
We adopt full hot-dip galvanizing plus anti-rust baking coating. Compared with ordinary spray-painted products, it delivers much better rust resistance and greatly lowers maintenance costs.
What is the service life of the waterproof sealant and the whole structure?
Our dedicated UV-resistant waterproof sealant can last up to 30 years. Our patented waterproof design, paired with galvanized steel structure, ensures a long service life with routine maintenance.
