A Flat Pack Container House is a prefabricated modular unit made of a steel frame and insulated panels. It is shipped in flat-packed form and assembled on site. This structure is strong, waterproof, and fast to build. 3–4 workers can set up one house in just a few hours.
These homes are widely used in construction sites, disaster areas, temporary offices, or even as permanent living spaces. The Flat Pack Container House is cost-effective and easy to move, making it ideal for many temporary and semi-permanent needs.
