Porta Cabins for Every Industry
Portable cabins, as the name implies, are designed to be movable. They are durable, high-quality, low maintenance, eco-friendly, and built to the same building codes as conventionally built structures. Porta cabins are ideal for use as storage units, temporary construction/sales offices, bunk houses, security shacks, workshops, portable restrooms, ticket booths, first aid stations, hunting cabins, and many other situations where extra temporary space is needed.
Schools may be the most frequent users of portable buildings to alleviate overcrowded classrooms and for swing space during construction or renovation. In the construction industry, portable cabins can provide work crews in remote locations with suitable accommodations. They can be placed on private property, government land or in campgrounds to accommodate scout troops, groups of hunters and fishermen, or for use as vacation cabins.
Another popular application is modular work camps. These are typically composed of sleeping quarters, kitchens, dining facilities and showers, and are most often used for firefighting crews, and oilfield and mining “man camps.” Portable modular cabins can be installed in a matter of weeks at a prepared site to house anywhere from 20 to 1,000 workers.
Military applications include temporary barracks and sleeping quarters, kitchens and showers. Modular units can also be constructed on platforms for use as observation or security towers. With all-weather construction and many configurations to choose from, portable cabins are the perfect solution for providing staff with a comfortable and protected area to sleep, eat and work. And, in some parts of the world, portable cabins are now being used to provide shelter for homeless people in lieu of plastic tents.
There are unlimited options for interior design, including doors, windows, floor coverings, special heating or air-conditioning, and wall finishes. Portable modular buildings can also be enhanced with energy-efficient utilities, eco-friendly insulation and no-VOC or low-VOC interior wall and floor treatments to create a “green” environment.
Portable cabins can be designed in a shape and size that will suit virtually any application. After serving their purpose, they can be dismantled, reconfigured and completely reassembled or moved. Ease of customization, affordability and quick deployment are some of their most attractive features.
