Product Overview
Effectively address immediate housing needs during disaster recovery and municipal planning in Japan with the rapid-deployment 10FT Expandable Container House Series, proudly produced by Global House (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. Essential for emergency stockpiling and rapid-turnaround temporary housing, this highly resilient modular solution features precision-sealed joints and heavy-duty insulation to offer superior protection against extreme weather and typhoons.
The ingenious 1:4 expansion ratio allows for ultra-high-density storage, preserving critical municipal warehouse space and cutting transport logistics dramatically. Upon arrival at the relief site, the robust, earthquake-resistant steel structure unfolds seamlessly in just a few minutes. It turns a single 10ft folded block into a secure, move-in-ready shelter equipped with solid fireproof subflooring, high-quality wall panels, and pre-configured electrical pathways. By bypassing the delays of traditional temporary construction, governments and NGOs can provide safe, dignified living spaces in critical moments.

2. Unfolding Wings: Release the safety latches, lift the two roof sections in sequence, and then lower the floor sections.
3. Fixing Walls: Push the folded side walls outward to a vertical position and install the corner connectors.
4. Sealing: Apply prefabricated sealing strips and high-quality structural adhesive at joints to ensure a weather-tight finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Are you a manufacturing factory or a trading company? Where is your factory located?
A: We are a direct manufacturing factory. Our plant is located in Zhenze Town, Wujiang County, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, China. We welcome global clients and third-party inspection agencies to visit us at any time.
Q2: What is the lifespan of this container house? Is it stable under extreme weather?
A: Under standard conditions, the galvanized steel frame has a lifespan of 15 to 20 years. Structurally, it is extremely safe; when properly anchored to a foundation, it can resist winds up to 200km/h and withstand up to a magnitude-9 earthquake outside.
Q3: Can the electrical and plumbing systems meet my local country's strict compliance standards?
A: Yes. We regularly export to regions with strict compliance requirements. We can pre-install electrical wiring, sockets, and plumbing systems that fully meet specific local certifications (such as CE for Europe or AU/NZS for Australia and New Zealand) to ensure fast council approval.
Q4: How long does it take to build? Do I need professional engineers?
A: No professional technicians are needed. We provide comprehensive installation videos and manuals. Generally, 2 workers can master the operation and complete a standard room setup within about 3 hours using basic lifting equipment.
Q5: What is your standard delivery time?
A: Delivery time depends on order quantities and customization. For standard sizes and configurations, delivery preparation generally takes 15 to 20 days after receiving the deposit (with standard scaling varying within 5-15 days depending on exact queue lines).
Q6: What should I provide to get a customized layout or design scheme?
A: It's very easy! If you have a sketch drawing or reference photo, you can send it to us directly. If not, simply notify us of your requirements, such as the total area, target usage, room/sanitary layout, and material preferences, and our design team will provide a detailed scheme and quotation.
