1.Global Demand Drives Modular Housing Trend
Expandable container houses and modular expandable houses are becoming one of the fastest-growing trends in the construction industry as global demand rises for fast-deploying, relocatable, cost-effective, and highly efficient building solutions. GS Housing, founded in 2001, is a modern enterprise integrating professional design, manufacturing, sales, and on-site construction. With a total asset scale of 2 billion RMB, strong R&D capabilities, and advanced production lines, the company has accumulated deep expertise in expandable container houses, modular buildings, prefabricated houses, and flat-pack container units. As a recognized National High-Tech Enterprise, GS Housing also holds numerous industry patents, international certifications, quality management system certificates, and product testing reports that ensure global-standard reliability and safety.
2.Launch and Market Success
Based on more than two decades of technical accumulation, GS Housing officially launched the Compact Expandable Container House, Small 700, in 2024. By the end of 2025, the Small 700 model has become one of our best-selling and most preferred modular housing solutions worldwide, widely used by project contractors, developers, and governments across multiple regions. Designed as a compact expandable modular building, the Small 700 provides an outstanding balance of portability, structural strength, and interior space optimization.
3.Compact Design and Flexible Layout
In its folded state, the Small 700 expandable container house measures only L5900 × W700 × H2480 mm, allowing maximum transport efficiency and significantly reducing logistics costs—an important factor for overseas projects and large-scale deployments. Once expanded, the Small 700 reaches L5900 × W4800 × H2480 mm, offering a total floor area of 27.5㎡ and an internal usable size of 5460 × 4640 × 2240 mm. The dual-wing expansion design of the Small 700 provides a flexible and open layout, suitable for 2–4 persons and customizable for various scenarios including residential accommodation, site offices, emergency shelters, commercial booths, tourism cabins, camp housing, and more. With a net weight of only 2.1 tons and a simplified installation mechanism, the Small 700 can be fully deployed within a few hours—making it ideal for urban development, government housing projects, construction sites, disaster relief, military camps, remote working stations, and outdoor hospitality.
4.Robust Structure and High Durability
What makes the Small 700 expandable container house a top-selling product is its exceptional structural performance and durability. The main body of the Small 700 adopts a fully galvanized national-standard steel frame, supported by heavy-duty structural elements including 80 × 100 × 2.5 mm side beams, 40 × 80 × 1.5 mm secondary beams, 2.5 mm galvanized steel columns, galvanized end beams, and a reinforced 130 mm galvanized folding hinge system. These ensure long-term stability and safety during repeated expansion and folding cycles. The roof and dual-wing panels of the Small 700 are constructed with 50 mm rock wool sandwich composite panels, combined with 0.45 mm corrugated steel sheets, delivering superior thermal insulation, fire resistance, soundproofing, and weather protection. Additionally, the frame surface is treated with electrostatic powder coating + anti-corrosion layers, ensuring excellent resistance against humidity, coastal salt air, rainfall, and high-temperature environments. With a 12KW electrical load capacity, the Small 700 fully supports modern appliances for both living and commercial use.
5.Certification and Global Applications
Backed by GS Housing’s extensive certification system—including ISO quality management, patented structural innovations, fire-proof materials testing, load-bearing tests, wind resistance reports, and international export standards—the Small 700 expandable container house has quickly gained trust in the global market. Since its launch in 2024, the Small 700 model has been widely applied in Middle East labor camps, African government housing projects, Australian farm accommodation units, European exhibition structures, Southeast Asian tourism cabins, and other major projects. By the end of 2025, the Small 700 has become one of GS Housing’s fastest-growing export products, supporting the global modular building strategy and helping clients worldwide achieve efficient, reliable, and cost-effective modular construction.
