Frequently Asked Technical & Export Questions
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for container frame kits and can we mix different models?
The minimum order for container frame kits is 20 sets. Yes, mixed orders are accepted: you can combine different dimensions (e.g., 2.4×6 m and 3×7 m), roof types (Flat Roof and Gable A-Roof), and surface finishes (Painted and Galvanized) as long as the total order reaches 20 sets.
Is there a minimum order requirement for ready modular containers (SC-K, SC-MK, SC-GK, SC-IK)?
No. Ready modular containers (accommodation units, site offices, security cabins, and WC/shower sanitary containers) can be ordered starting from 1 unit up to multi-unit construction camp packages.
How many container frame kits or ready containers fit into a 13.6m Truck (TIR) or 40' HC Sea Container?
For bolt-together demountable frame kits (such as 2.4×6 m or 3×7 m), a single 13.6m flatbed/curtain-side truck or 40' HC container holds approximately 20 to 28 sets depending on total weight and roof geometry. For factory-assembled 3×7 m ready containers, 1 truck carries 2 monoblock units (or 4–6 compact guard/sanitary cabins); for multi-unit export projects shipped in flat-pack configuration, 1 truck or 40' HC carries 6 to 10 units.
What is the difference between Flat Roof and Gable (A) Roof frame kits?
Flat Roof frame kits have a 2,600 mm external height and standard chassis/roof purlin structure. Gable (A) Roof frame kits feature 2,500 mm vertical side walls and dual-pitched steel roof trusses reaching a 2,850 mm ridge height, designed for rapid rainwater/snow runoff and residential aesthetics.
Do you offer Rockwool or PIR insulation and A/C preparation for Middle East & Gulf projects?
Yes. While our standard ready containers feature EPS insulated wall panels, you can select the "Hot Climate & Camp Option" in our quote calculator to upgrade to fire-rated Rockwool or high-density PIR panels, reinforced roof insulation, and pre-wired split A/C provisions for Iraq, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and North Africa projects.
What is included in a container frame kit and what is excluded?
Each frame kit includes the bottom chassis perimeter beams, top roof perimeter frame, intermediate floor/roof purlins, 4 or 6 load-bearing corner columns, gable roof trusses/ridge beams (on A-roof models), lifting lugs, and the complete bolt/nut/washer fastener set. Wall panels, roof cladding sheets, floor boards, doors, windows, and site assembly are excluded from the frame-only kit.
