Understanding Panel Materials: The Secret to Modern Small Prefab Homes

For those looking to buy tiny houses or explore mobile houses for living, understanding the core material is essential. Your choice of paneling affects how much you will spend on heating and cooling in your prefab modular homes.

1. EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) Panels

1) Best For: Cheap tiny houses and temporary mobile container houses.

2) Advantages: Lightweight and highly cost-effective. EPS wall panels and EPS roof panels are moisture-resistant and provide decent insulation for mild climates.

3) Application: Perfect for folding container houses where ease of transport is a priority.

2. Rockwool Panels

1) Best For: Industrial-grade prefab modular houses and high-safety residential areas.

2) Advantages: Non-combustible with excellent fire ratings. Rockwool roof panels provide superior fire protection and sound insulation.

3) Application: Recommended for detachable container houses used in commercial or high-density sites.

3. Glasswool Panels

1) Best For: Prefab container houses in high-humidity or cold regions.

2) Advantages: Glasswool wall panels and Glasswool roof panels offer great thermal stability and are highly resistant to rot.

3) Application: Ideal for a mobile tiny house or a tiny house on wheels that needs to withstand diverse weather conditions while traveling.

4. PU (Polyurethane) Panels

1) Best For: Premium modern small prefab homes and extreme environments.

2) Advantages: The gold standard for insulation. PU roof panels have the lowest thermal conductivity, meaning they keep heat in during winter and out during summer more effectively than any other material.

3) Application: The top choice for high-end Space Capsule Houses and luxury customized container houses.
