Flatpack is a kind of container house consists by container roof, container base, four columns and sandwich wall panels. We have prefabricated all above parts in our factory, so the container roof will be an integrated one piece with PU foam as insulation, with electrical system embedded and ready for connecting. The door and windows are pre-installed into the wall panel, conduits, cable, sockets and switches are also well pre-installed. Base is also well finished with floor deck and flooring, even plumbing is pre-set into the container base, only need to be connected to the outlets during installation.
We have standard 20ft size design in both empty for office space and with bathroom for living. They can also be combined together to meet with different space requirements, they can also be built in three floors to save land.
CBC flatpack cubic house is made by Q355 galvanized steel frame and long lifetime sandwich wall panels, the overall lifetime of our flatpack container home can reaches to 15~20 years even in some heavy wind or highly corrosive areas.

- Design: we chose PU injection for the roof insulation system, which has much better performance in tightness, strength and insulation. this system is patented in China. what's more, our container home is designed for 1KN/sqm roof live load and 2.5KN/sqm floor load, wind resistance can reach to 210km/H;
- Materials: we use Q355 galvanized steel cold rolled for the main frame, all frames are full welded together then well-polished and painted in our automatically painting platform, which will be much better than by manual. the steel sheets on both side of the sandwich wall panels are with aluminum zinc galvanized-AZ50g/sqm plus PE coating in 15/5um treatments, lifetime can reach to 15~20 years.
- Production: most of the cutting, drilling, welding and painting are by machines or auto-arms, much better in accuracy and more guarantee for the quality;
- Installation: we have SOC packing which will be much easier for materials sort out onsite, less problem for installation and also time saving. we have very detail installation instructions and videos to guide the onsite work, make sure every project can be handled over perfectly.
Applications
Construction site office or accommodation camp
Fast installation and can be easily relocated after the project finished, very convenient for construction companies and can also save a lot of cost.
Mining site office or accommodation camp
Easy to handle in the remote mining areas, lifetime can reach to 15~20 years. because other than the galvanized steel frames, the steel sheet for the sandwich wall panel is aluminum zinc galvanized-AZ50g/sqm plus PE coating in 15/5um.
Less concrete foundation requirements to protect the land and save construction cost, Also, can withstand in heavy wind and highly corrosive conditions.
Isolation rooms
massive production capability and fast installation made the flatpack to be the perfect solution during the pandemic. It can be re-located and re-used after wise to recover part of the investment, simple requirements for foundation also can protect the land and save the construction cost.
Temporary office or living house
Ready to move in, easy to erect, convenient to relocated, affordable for temporary use.
Low-cost house
Affordable cost vs. 15~20 years lifetime makes the flatpack to be the most competitive solution for low-cost housing projects. What’s more, it can be built in a short time and massive production is available.

We have two methods for packing: flat packing or SOC packing. We will pack the container roof and base together, and use steel rack to pack and protect the sandwich wall panels and other accessories. Or we will use the container roof and base to make a self-owned-container box, put all sandwich wall panels and other components into the box, so one unit is a box, very easy to sort out the materials onsite and no items will be missed.
