In light steel construction, there are several options to choose from. At first, many people think of container houses, but in recent years far more efficient solutions have appeared on the market.
One of these is the sandwich panel system, which the ECOMODUL product family elevates to a new level of light steel construction by easily combining traditional building materials such as wood and rock wool with modern construction technologies. This unique combination results in a structure built on a strong frame, with excellent thermal insulation properties, ensuring long-term energy-efficient operation.
In the table below, we have summarized the main characteristics of container and sandwich panel construction.
| Feature | Container House | Sandwich Panel |
| Size | Fixed dimensions | Custom sizing possible |
| Thermal insulation | Retrofitting required, difficult to solve | Well insulated, typically 10 cm PIR |
| Sound insulation | Weak | Acceptable |
| Exterior appearance | Less attractive industrial look | Color and material adapted to environment |
| Interior appearance | Industrial style | Aesthetic, customizable |
| Cost | Low initial cost, high retrofit cost | Fixed and predictable |
| Installation & lifespan | Longer installation due to additional works | Fast installation, long lifespan |
