Accommodation is one of the constraints that decides whether a project can staff up on schedule. Prefabricated units let you add capacity in the time it takes to deliver and set them down, and remove it again when the crew size drops.

Rental rate

From 3,000 baht per unit per month (model PH-01, 3×6 m, 2 rooms). Multi-room and two-storey models are priced by the number of rooms — every model is listed on the worker accommodation page. Longer terms bring the monthly rate down. Delivery and installation are charged by distance to your site.

Why this has become standard practice

Industrial estates and factory projects in Thailand have moved toward prefabricated worker accommodation for a practical reason: the alternative is either building temporary structures on site, which consumes programme time and site area, or housing workers off site, which creates a daily transport problem. A delivered unit avoids both.

Welfare and safety

Insulated wall panels make a real difference to whether a unit is habitable through a Thai hot season, and that in turn affects whether crews stay. Units are supplied wired and lockable. If your project is subject to a client or main contractor safety audit, ask us for the specification in writing before you commit — it is easier to satisfy an auditor with documentation than with a site visit.

Scaling up and down

Units stack to two storeys and join side by side, so accommodation capacity can follow the manpower curve rather than being fixed at the peak from day one.

Sanitation

Accommodation blocks are usually paired with portable toilet units. We can quote both together so that the sanitation capacity matches the number of people actually housed.

Frequently asked questions

What is a prefabricated worker house, and how does it differ from a site-built shelter?
A prefabricated worker house is a unit made complete in a factory, craned into position on site and usable immediately — nothing is built on site. Unlike a shelter thrown up on site, every unit has the same structure and materials, so cleanliness and safety are controllable and a safety officer's inspection is far simpler. At the end of the project the units are removed, leaving nothing behind. ECOS manufactures and rents them, so delivery, installation and maintenance are included in the rental.
How long does a prefabricated worker house last?
It depends on the materials, the site environment and maintenance. Our units use a steel frame with 30 mm insulated wall panels — 0.35 mm colour-coated galvanised steel skins over an injected polyurethane foam core — which stands up to sun and rain over long service periods. With a rental, maintenance is our responsibility rather than yours, and a unit can be swapped if its condition deteriorates.
What can you get for a budget of 50,000–100,000 baht?
Bought outright, that budget typically buys a small single-room unit — a one-off cost that you then maintain yourself. ECOS rents rather than sells, so the same budget covers several months' rental of a 3 × 6 m unit (18 sqm), with delivery, installation and maintenance included. Rates start at [PRICE] baht per month. Tell us your budget and the period and we will propose what fits.
Can prefabricated units be arranged into a worker camp?
Yes — that is our main use case. Prefabricated units are placed side by side to form a camp immediately, instead of structures thrown up on site. That makes cleanliness and safety controllable, and lets the unit count follow the manpower curve through the project rather than being fixed at the peak from day one.
Is a construction permit required?
It depends on the location, the type of project and how long the unit will stand. Always check with the local authority responsible for the area first. Prefabricated units that are craned in and can be relocated are often treated differently from permanent structures, but we cannot give a legal ruling on the authority's behalf. If you need the unit specification documents to submit with an application, we can provide them.
