From factory to site

    Capsules are too large for a standard 40ft container and usually ship on a 40ft flat rack. Only one unit fits per flat rack container.

  2. Foundation

    Before delivery, prepare 4 to 6 concrete footings or a steel foundation. Detailed instructions and drawings are provided, and plumbing and electrical pipes are pre installed on the exterior.

  3. Installation

    The capsule weighs 6 to 10 tonnes and is placed with a 25 to 35 tonne crane. For multi unit projects, engineers can attend to guide installation.

  4. Connection
