Foldable container homes aid rapid earthquake relief efforts in Tibet
On August 21, 2025, a 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck Tingri County, Tibet. Rescue teams swiftly responded, and Foldable Container Homes became a ray of hope for affected residents.
In the early stages of the disaster, tents provided initial shelter. With the arrival of relief supplies and personnel, the focus shifted to constructing preFabricated Houses. These prefabricated houses offer improved protection and comfort, marking a more stable transition phase in post-disaster resettlement efforts.
Thanks to their foldable structural design and modular construction technology, these container homes can be assembled in 6-8 minutes. They are also highly maneuverable and easily transported by crane.
These foldable container homes offer numerous advantages, including earthquake resistance, thermal insulation, and sun and moisture resistance. They are primarily constructed from lightweight steel, sandwich panels, and color-coated steel plates. The sandwich panels are filled with rock wool, offering excellent thermal insulation and fire resistance.
To enhance comfort and safety, China Railway 21st Bureau uses Class A thermally insulating and fire-resistant rock wool for the wall panels, and high-grade waterproof and fire-resistant magnesium oxide board for the flooring. The houses are also equipped with burglar-proof plastic-steel windows, providing excellent ventilation and ample lighting. Once powered, they can meet daily needs and provide essential amenities.
The efficient deployment of foldable container homes has provided safe and comfortable temporary shelter for disaster-stricken residents, injecting momentum into rescue and reconstruction efforts. They have become a vital force in disaster relief efforts, bringing hope to those affected.
