South Africa faces increasing housing emergencies due to floods, fires, informal settlement displacement, and infrastructure failure. Every year, thousands of families are left without shelter — waiting for temporary relief emergency housing that often takes months to arrive.
When disaster strikes, time is everything.
Communities can’t afford to wait for traditional construction; they need rapid, ready-to-install housing solutions that offer safety, comfort, and dignity. That’s where Container Consumables steps in — providing emergency housing South Africa can depend on.
Rapid Relief, Real Homes – The Container Consumables Solution
We manufacture modular, transportable housing units that can be deployed anywhere in the country within days.
Each unit is made from durable steel or insulated chromadek panels, designed to handle South Africa’s toughest weather conditions. Our modular homes are:
Fully insulated for comfort
- Weather-resistant and secure
- Equipped with bathrooms and kitchens
- Fitted with prepaid water and electricity meters
- Installed quickly using our in-house crane truck division
These units can serve as temporary emergency housing or be converted into permanent low-cost accommodation after the crisis period.
Designed for Municipalities, NGOs, and Disaster Relief
We understand the operational challenges faced by municipalities, human settlements departments, and disaster response agencies.
Our goal is to make emergency housing delivery simple, fast, and cost-effective.
We Provide
✅ Turnkey emergency housing supply
✅ Fast manufacturing and installation timelines
✅ Nationwide delivery (KZN, Gauteng, Limpopo, Eastern Cape, Western Cape, and beyond)
✅ Flexible configurations for families or community shelters
✅ Energy options (solar or inverter systems available)
From flood relief in KwaZulu-Natal to fire-affected communities in Cape Town, Container Consumables is ready to deploy solutions that bring people back to safety and stability.
Restoring Dignity Through Design
Our emergency housing units aren’t just shelters — they’re livable, safe spaces.
Each home comes with proper doors, windows, insulation, plumbing, and electrical fittings, giving families a sense of privacy, comfort, and dignity during difficult times.
We believe temporary housing should feel like home, not a storage container.
This approach helps families recover faster, both physically and emotionally.
Cost-Effective, Scalable, and Sustainable
Park home housing dramatically reduces costs while increasing delivery speed.
- Cost savings: up to 50% less than conventional builds
- Speed: delivery and installation in less than a week
- Sustainability: recyclable materials, low carbon footprint
- Scalability: easily expanded into larger settlements or converted into long-term housing
- This model allows government and NGOs to stretch budgets further, house more people, and improve project turnaround times — all while maintaining high safety and quality standards.
A Reliable Partner for Public Sector Projects
We’ve built our reputation on delivering high-quality modular units to both the public and private sectors.
Our experience with construction sites, schools, and housing projects gives us the practical expertise to handle emergency deployments with speed and precision.
We handle design, manufacturing, logistics, and installation under one roof — meaning fewer contractors, fewer delays, and faster delivery.
- Empowering South Africa’s Emergency Housing Response
- By choosing modular emergency housing, decision makers can make a real impact:
- Provide immediate shelter to displaced families
