Although prefabricated houses and container houses are both new building structures, compared with traditional building structures, they have a shorter construction period, flexible disassembly and assembly, and can be used as temporary residences. Prefabricated houses and container houses have won the recognition of many users by virtue of these advantages, and have been widely used in the market. However, in addition to the name, there are other differences between the prefabricated house and the container house.

1. In terms of design. The container house introduces modern home furnishing elements, with a single box as the unit, which can be combined and stacked in any combination. The performance of sealing, sound insulation, fire prevention, moisture resistance, heat insulation, etc. should be better. Movable board houses are installed on-site in units of raw materials such as steel and plates. The performance of sealing, sound insulation, fire prevention, moisture resistance, and heat insulation is poor, and the effect will not be known until the installation is completed, which is not conducive to people’s comparison and selection.

2, Structure. The overall structure of the container house is welded and fixed, which is stronger and safer, more wind-resistant, and more earthquake-resistant. It will not fall apart or collapse in the event of typhoon, earthquake, ground subsidence and other disasters. The sandwich panel house adopts mosaic structure, which has low resistance. It is easy to collapse and fall apart in case of unstable foundation, typhoon, earthquake, etc., and it is not safe enough.

3. In terms of installation. The container house can be hoisted by the whole container without concrete foundation. It can be installed in 15 minutes and moved in in 1 hour, and it can be used when it is connected to the power supply. When installing the prefabricated house, it takes a long time to build the concrete foundation, build the main body, install the wall, hang the ceiling, install water and electricity, etc., which takes a long time.

4.Decoration. The floor, walls, ceilings, water and electricity, doors and windows, exhaust fans and other one-time decorations of the container house can be used for a long time, energy-saving and beautiful. The wall, ceiling, water and electricity, lighting, doors and windows of the prefabricated house need to be installed on site, which has a long construction period, large losses, and is not beautiful enough.

5.In terms of use. The design of container house is more humane, living and working are more comfortable, and the number of rooms can be increased or decreased at any time, which is convenient and flexible. The movable board room has poor sound insulation and fireproof performance, and average living and office comfort. After installation, it is fixed and formed, and the number of rooms cannot be temporarily increased or decreased

On the one hand, we can understand the difference between container houses and prefab houses, and on the other hand, we can further increase our understanding of container houses and prefab houses. When deciding to build this type of house, you can decide whether to build a container house or a prefabricated house based on actual needs. If you don’t know how to decide, you can also directly contact our company. Based on our years of experience, our company will recommend suitable houses for you.
