Z-Type Folding Expandable Container House
Ultra-Fast Build Modular Prefab Cabin, Ideal for Bulk Housing Projects
1. What Is The Z-Type Folding Expandable Container House?
The Z-type folding expandable container house is a highly efficient prefabricated modular building adopting unique Z-fold mechanism. It is engineered for ultra-quick setup to cut on-site labor and assembly time dramatically. The unit folds into an ultra-thin compact profile for simple relocation and transportation, greatly reducing ocean freight cost. When delivered on-site, it unfolds rapidly into a fully functional indoor space. This model is perfectly suited for buyers with large-volume bulk procurement requirements.
- Folded dimension: 5800 × 2500 × 640 mm
- Fully unfolded dimension: 5800 × 2500 × 2530 mm
