KONTAINER 3X
We are pleased to introduce our second patented project, the Kontainer 3X.
⚡️The Kontainer 3X ⚡️is a container designed for emergency situations and conflict zones, offering three times the capacity while maintaining standard dimensions during transportation.
✔️It will be energy self-sufficient, powered by our X-Flywheel battery, and
✔️fully equipped according to the intended use.
The Kontainer 3X serves as a vital resource for Civil Protection services and organizations like the United Nations, operating in challenging environments.
But that’s not all!
The container is versatile and can be utilized in a variety of contexts.
For instance, it can be used as a home or residential structure. This trend has emerged in recent years as an alternative solution for sustainable and low-cost housing. Alternatively, it can be deployed in emergency scenarios, providing safe and easily installable structures, often in harsh climatic conditions such as deserts, snow, ice, or strong winds.
Let’s explore the most common applications:
Modular Homes: The KONTAINER 3X can be transformed into a modular home, where multiple containers are combined to create larger living spaces. Containers can be connected side by side or stacked to create various configurations and house sizes.
Prefabricated Homes: The KONTAINER 3X can also be used as a component for prefabricated houses. In this case, the containers are converted into fully functional housing units in a factory and then transported to the site for quick assembly.
Temporary Housing or Emergency Shelters: The KONTAINER 3X can be utilized to provide temporary housing in emergency situations, such as after an earthquake or a natural disaster. It can be quickly installed to offer a safe shelter for those affected.
Offices or Commercial Spaces: The KONTAINER 3X can be adapted for commercial purposes, such as a temporary office or shop. It can be equipped with insulation, lighting, electricity, and climate control systems to create functional and comfortable spaces.
Temporary/Field Hospitals: The KONTAINER 3X can be configured as a temporary or field hospital, providing essential medical facilities in disaster zones or remote areas. Its modular design allows for the creation of fully equipped medical units, including treatment rooms, operating areas, and patient wards.
Temporary Structures for Exhibitions and/or Sporting Events: The KONTAINER 3X can serve as temporary facilities for exhibitions or sporting events. It can be customized to function as ticket booths, information centers, lounges, or storage spaces, offering a flexible and practical solution for short-term needs.
Construction Sites: The KONTAINER 3X can be used on construction sites as on-site offices, storage units for equipment and materials, or break rooms for workers. Its durability and adaptability make it an ideal solution for demanding work environments.
The use of expandable containers offers several advantages, including:
- Relatively low cost
- Durability and strength of the structure
- Flexibility in space configuration
- Ease and speed of installation
- Transportability to hard-to-reach areas
- Possibility to reduce environmental impact through the reuse of containers
Key features that distinguish the KONTAINER 3X from the competitors
The KONTEINER 3X is unique and innovative due to the following competitive advantages:
- Tripled container area extension
- Provision for electrical, hydraulic, and air conditioning systems
- Customization options for access points and windows
- Ideal for field hospital setups and for natural or health emergencies (walls can be pre-equipped)
- Air transportability, helicopter transportability (including road transport)
- Maximization of energy savings
- Robustness of the structure
- Insulation (min. 50mm)
- Ease and speed of installation (1 person in 1 hour)
- Portability to areas without access and/or in adverse weather conditions
Structural features ⬇️
- It expands, tripling its external volume, reaching the following minimum internal dimensions: 6.14 meters in width, 5.15 meters in length, and a minimum height of 2.13 meters;
- The structure is made entirely of S275 JR carbon steel with anti-corrosion coating;
- It has thermal insulation with a 50mm thick insulating panel gap;
- It is suitable for both extremely cold environments, such as high mountain areas, and extremely hot environments, such as deserts;
- It is pre-equipped for electrical and plumbing systems;
- It supports snow loads in alpine areas;
- Its extension system is fully mechanical and can be operated using a power drill, allowing full extension in less than one hour;
- It does not require additional support points when extended, as all parts remain connected to the main body;
- Equipped with a front opening 2 meters wide, a rear opening 1 meter wide, and side openings (central or lateral) 0.9 meters wide for each wall;
- In transport mode (not extended), the container offers a free internal volume of 18 m³.
The Kontainer 3X outperforms the competitors in several aspects and features, particularly in terms of structure, insulation, durability, versatility, and ease/quickness of installation.
