While our containers have been used in the past for gyms, laundry facilities, maintenance, and other various uses, these same containers are now a popular choice for those who are preparing their community or organization for future COVID-19 outbreaks. These mobile facilities can be utilized to create surge capacity for existing hospitals or alternate care sites. Common field hospital configurations are for 100 to 250 occupancy.
Our container system is customizable to handle COVID-19 overflow and emergencies. A 20 foot unit (with a divider) can easily meet the isolation requirements for 2 patients. This configuration could be utilized for a pre-operation, post-operation, or ICU application. Depending on the desired occupancy, we can scale the number of units to match.

Our container shelters also provide stability with the option to be fastened (welded or bolted) both to each other, as well as being anchored into a foundation. Depending on the size your facility requires, these containers can also be stacked. We’re very familiar with creating these containers to accommodate not only medical facilities, but also space for container field hospitals, kitchen units, bathrooms and showers, and mobile housing. These additional structures are all essential, especially during a COVID-19 outbreak.
