Flat Pack Homes for the Homeless And Refugees,

We began writing about log cabins , timber buildings and other timber products that we sold direct to the customer OVER 20 YEARS AGO. Originally, we were Log Cabins LV, but we later changed our company name to Factory Cabins because, regrettably, Google decided that a Latvian domain and website should, and could not be ranked in the UK. At first, there was no issue, but later, we ran into trouble when the European Government approached Google and demanded, millions of dollars in taxes. As a result, Google began to only display each company’s listings in their designated regions, so LV , Latvia, .co.uk Uk and so on. So we went for a new site with a .com, co.uk and started anew.

We have produced articles about the various varieties of log cabins, timber buildings, Glulam buildings, on their construction, and the most recent developments in log cabin design. As well as discussing the many materials that might be utilized, we have written about the advantages of building with log cabins glulam , timber frame. We have also discussed the best techniques to insulate and preserve your log cabin. Our blog has even included reviews of log cabin companies. We have spoken our customers. Also, we have written about the significance of creating log cabins with sustainable materials and green building practices.

We make a constant effort to give our readers the best knowledge and suggestions on building and maintaining log cabins. We hope that our blog and tools will be a valuable and informative resource for anyone planning to build a log cabin.

OK…. Let’s talk today about steel flat packed frame modular insulated buildings.

We are first going to talk about Flat Pack Steel frame Insulated Buildings, that will stack 4 high safely.

  1. Insulated steel frame panels provide superior thermal performance, reducing energy costs and helping to keep out the cold.
    1. The panels have double glazing, which improves both soundproofing and thermal insulating properties.
    2. The steel frame provides improved strength and longevity, making it less susceptible to harm from the environment.
    3. Steel frames are additionally fire-resistant, adding to the security and assurance.
    4. Steel frames also offer a long-term return on investment and are cost-effective.
    5. The panels have electrics installed, making it simple to install lighting, heating, and other electrical components.
    6. Steel frame structures can also be easily expanded upon and customized in order to meet changing needs.
    7. The panels are lightweight, which makes them simple to install and carry.

These portable homes are ideal for a variety of uses. Not only can they save you money on trucking, but they can also provide quick, efficient, and affordable housing solutions for a variety of needs. For example, they could be used in refugee camps, scouts villages, nurses villages, and other areas where a large number of people need to be quickly housed. Additionally, their flat-pack design means that they can be easily assembled and disassembled, making them even more cost-effective.

Purchasing an old sea container everyone thinks is a great Idea, its not, as they are not designed for purpose, we designed living accommodation, to house people, not bananas, also our units are not sea containers before someone thinks they are, they are not, they are units designed to go ontop of each other, they can be any shape of size, some can be flat packed others can not.

So what do they look like inside, well that depends solely on you. We can offer them premanufactured that have beautiful birch ply, my favourite, or keep the original white insulated panel, depends on what you want, need.
Many organisations like the Army, Nato, Migration centres, want them easy to move, easy to assemble, and easy to disassemble, and if you’re looking for quality units, then these are them.


We believe this is an effective way to help the homeless population because it is not only cost effective, but also highly efficient in terms of the time it takes to assemble and disassemble the units. It is also durable and provides shelter and protection from the elements. The flatpack bed units can be easily transported, making them ideal for temporary shelters in areas that may need to be relocated. Additionally, by providing these beds, homeless people can access basic comforts and a sense of safety, which can help to improve their mental health and wellbeing. The units are also designed to be low-maintenance, meaning they don’t require a lot of upkeep or financial investment.

We are able to make a village that is pretty much indestructible, panels and walls, windows and doors removed and fixed very quickly , can be moved where ever, delivered and assembled incredibly fast, and we can supply large scale canteens, and washing facilities in bulk, we support local governments, councils, in their need for affordable centres like these.

So what is the turnaround time, from order, so firstly we put together a plan of what you need , if the units will have toilets, showers, or we manufacture these separately in large scale blocks, Woman / Men, also Kitchens and Canteens, then we agree on the amount, you pay deposit, you will only have to wait 8 weeks for them to start rolling in as the first leave the other 50% will need to be paid, if you would like us to assemble the whole camp-centre, then we will add this into the full pricing.

We offer Finance, and of course we look at every project and calculated pricing from there. The more you purchase in the order, the less they cost.
As you can see we are a large manufacture of these and 1000 units does not phase us!
