en.Wedoany.com Reported - Brazilian company Solutil Containers has launched an 18-square-meter modular home priced at 44,900 Brazilian reais, built from scratch and equipped with a complete bathroom, with delivery in approximately 30 days. The module measures 6 meters in length and 3 meters in width, and comes with soft vinyl flooring and pre-installed facilities upon leaving the factory.
Unlike homes converted from used shipping containers, this module is constructed using new steel plates and insulation panels. According to Solutil Containers, the production cycle of around 30 days for such units is shorter than the approximately 50 days typically required for converted containers.
The module measures 6 meters in length, 3 meters in width, and 2.90 meters in height, with a total area of approximately 18 square meters. Its 3-meter width is a design highlight, while standard containers are only 2.44 meters wide. The company states that the extra tens of centimeters enable layouts such as a bathroom on one side, ample space for a kitchen sink, and wide hallways, which are unattainable with traditional containers.
The unit is equipped with windows on both sides, including a 1.50-meter window and maxim-ar type casement windows, in addition to a balcony featuring treated pine wood flooring, iron railings, lighting fixtures, and an insulated panel ceiling. The interior is finished with soft vinyl flooring, baseboards bonded with PU (polyurethane) adhesive, and includes electrical outlets, air conditioning pre-wiring, pre-installed electrical and plumbing systems, and a built-in distribution panel.
The bathroom is fully delivered and located on one side, comprising a sink with a mirrored vanity, a one-piece toilet, a floor drain, a shower pre-installation point, and a tempered glass top-hung window. The door is sandblasted, the walls are finished with ACM (aluminum composite material) panels featuring wood grain and exposed concrete textures, and the shower area floor uses ceramic tiles. The company states that this level of finishing is made possible by the home's 3-meter width, which is difficult to achieve in narrower standard containers while simultaneously accommodating a complete bathroom, kitchen, and passage space.
The difference from traditional container homes lies primarily in the material source. This module is built from scratch rather than refurbished from used shipping containers. The insulation panel system features a thermal core material between the steel plates, helping to improve indoor thermal insulation. Since production takes place within the company's own premises, the reported delivery time is approximately 30 days.
According to the manufacturer, such modular homes can be used not only as residences but also as offices, stores, or sales booths. The price of the finished module disclosed in the video is 44,900 Brazilian reais, and this price, along with the 30-day delivery time, is provided by the company and may vary depending on the project, region, and date. The company did not specify whether the price includes shipping and installation; purchases of such modules typically also require consideration of costs for land, foundations, transportation, and obtaining construction permits from municipal authorities.
