How much does a housing module cost?

The price of a housing module depends on the model (folding or expandable), the floor area, the interior finish and the number of units. Because we import directly from the factory, with no middlemen, we can tailor the budget to your project. Request a quote and we reply within 24 business hours.

Do the modules hold up in mountain (cordillera) weather?

Yes. The modules come with Class A rock-wool insulation and a Q235B steel structure, rated seismic grade 10 and wind level 11. They are designed for high-altitude camps and extreme-cold zones like those found in mining projects across the Andes.

Do you deliver to mine sites in San Juan?

Yes. We coordinate delivery logistics all the way to the site, including San Juan mining projects such as Veladero, Josemaría or Los Azules. We bring the modules to the location and support the assembly according to the model.

What does a turnkey mining camp include?

A turnkey camp integrates everything needed to house the crew: dormitories, bathrooms and showers, dining hall, offices and, if required, an infirmary and power generation. We size it to the headcount and the length of the operation, and coordinate transport and installation.

Modular housing and camp equipment

We supply modular housing for mining, oil & gas and construction: folding and expandable modular homes, habitable containers and prefab modules ready to install. These modular units are built to withstand high-altitude and extreme-weather conditions.

We outfit complete mining camps —the on-site base camp or worker village— with dormitories, bathrooms, dining halls and offices. We solve staff accommodation and the operating base for your project, whether a mining camp or an oil & gas camp.

Beyond the modules, we add mining supplies and infrastructure for mining. We work as a direct provider, importing from the factory, to deliver mining solutions tailored to each site.
