Flat Pack Container House Custom OEM Foldable Prefab Strong
A flat pack unit leaves the factory inside a 600 mm envelope and loads six to a 40HQ. A custom order changes what sits inside that envelope, not the envelope itself. Six items are locked once the panels are laminated, so they belong on the drawing before the deposit is paid.

Frame Sections, Panel Skins and Core
Welded from 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm steel, the prefabricated container house frame carries a casting at each corner. Castings take twist locks and the crane sling. Floor joists sit at 600 mm centres, with an 18 mm deck laid over them. Bolts, not welds, join the pieces, so a site needs only spanners.
Side panels of a flat pack container house combine a 0.35 mm outer skin with a 75 mm insulated core. Over the roof goes a 0.45 mm profile sheet on a 50 mm panel, over an 18 mm board that takes the wear face. A 15 mm trim closes each cut edge, so the core stays dry.
Panel and roof pack · 0.35 mm skin over a 75 mm core · Roof sheet at 0.45 mm on a 50 mm panel · Gasket roll for every panel joint · 15 mm edge trim for cut panels · Sealant cartridge and nozzle
Pre Wired Loom and Breaker Box
The loom of a flat pack container house is fitted and tested before the panels are crated. At the door, a breaker box serves light and power circuits and keeps one spare way, sockets, switches and lamps following the drawing. Supply arrives on an industrial plug, with the earth bar bonded to the frame.
Electrical kit · Breaker box with a spare way · Socket, switch and ceiling lamp · Industrial plug and inlet · Loom cut to the layout drawing Supply arrives on an industrial plug, with the earth bar bonded to the frame, so a site can energise the unit without opening the board. Sockets, switches and lamps follow the drawing through the loom.
Bolting Panels and Frames on Site
Setting the floor cassette on pads takes two workers, and the corner posts bolt upright from there, and the wall panels slide into the post channels and lock together. Last comes the roof panel, with the cams closed along both long edges and the seams checked. Hand tools and a step ladder close it.

OEM Colour, Packing Marks and Loading
An OEM order can change window count, window type and full height glazing. Colour runs to any RAL shade. A two tone scheme or a printed logo on the gable also fits. Packing goes from a frame cradle to a full crate with desiccant, and documents from the shipping set to test reports and mill certificates.

Flat packs nest, so a sea container carries more units than built shells would hold, frames stacking in a cradle with panels between them, wrapped in film. Crates add corner guards and desiccant. Shipping marks and unit numbers let a site route each pack without opening it.

Site Dormitories, Shops and Field Offices
Site dormitories, field offices, shops and clinics all start from the same module. Two modules bolted side by side make a canteen or a meeting room. Because the parts are flat, a unit can be carried up a track a truck cannot use. The flat pack container house suits a site that has to be cleared at the end of a job.
