Why Prefab Dominates UAE Construction？
Under the harsh climate conditions of the UAE (summer temperature 50°C, surface temperature 70°C), building traditional houses in remote sites faces severe challenges. High temperatures extend the concrete curing cycle and workers cannot work, resulting in extended construction periods and budget overruns. These problems are the core reasons why UAE construction contractors turn to prefab houses UAE.
As a Chinese prefabricated building expert with deep roots in the Middle East market, K-home’s prefabricated house modules are designed specifically for the UAE environment to help local contractors solve this situation.
First, factory-prefabricated steel structure modules can achieve a 30% construction speed increase. This advantage was confirmed in the Dubai Oil Mining Workers Community Project, where we completed 200 oil mining workers’ dormitories in 30 days.
Second, the adaptability of the enclosure system. The universal house module with PIR insulation core material maintains a constant indoor temperature. The double-glass magnesium rock wool panel enclosure system designed specifically for energy projects fully meets the 1-hour fire protection standard required by the UAE fire regulations. All building modules are fire-proof certified to ensure full compliance with local UAE building regulations.
We deeply understand the UAE customers’ ultimate pursuit of speed, quality and compliance. By perfectly integrating Chinese manufacturing efficiency with UAE local standards, we provide you with tailor-made solutions. These solutions have been successfully implemented in the buildings of the oilfield man camp.

UAE-Optimized Prefab House Designs
Prefab House Types Perfect for UAE’s Climate
K-HOME offers a variety of prefabricated housing solutions. For the hot climate and strong wind and sand environment in the UAE, we recommend modular container prefabricated houses and light steel structure prefabricated houses. Although the structures of these two houses are different, they both use high-strength galvanized steel structural frames. Through wind load tests, they can withstand the impact of strong sandstorms and maintain structural stability for more than ten years in harsh environments.
Modular container houses adopt standardized unit design and support flexible combinations of horizontal arrangement and vertical stacking. Each 20-foot container module can be 90% prefabricated in the factory, and the basic installation can be completed in just 4 hours after arriving at the construction site. Through multi-unit expansion, a complete worker camp including office areas, dormitories, and toilets can be quickly built.
Light steel structure prefabricated houses are prefabricated house kits with double-slope roofs. The appearance is similar to traditional buildings. This type of house can be built with standard appearance and customized cladding appearance.
For the high temperature environment in the UAE, both prefabricated houses can be equipped with standard enclosure systems or customized enclosure systems that meet special needs.

Fire-resistant insulation systems for energy projects in the UAE
In the construction of energy projects such as oil and gas in the UAE, construction contractors must strictly comply with local fire prevention regulations, especially the mandatory requirements of the Dubai Civil Defense Department for a 1-2 hour fire resistance limit in flammable areas.
Faced with such stringent standards, double-glass magnesium rock wool panels have become the preferred solution for high-risk areas such as energy camp kitchens and equipment rooms. This innovative material uses a five-layer composite structure: a 0.5mm stainless steel exterior to resist desert corrosion, a double-layer glass magnesium board sandwiching a 120kg/m³ high-density rock wool core, and finally a stainless steel interior finish to form a third-party certified fire barrier system.
In the oil camp project in the southwestern desert of Dubai, the fireproof insulation system we deployed perfectly illustrates its reliability. The double-glass magnesium rock wool panel used in the camp kitchen area was tested by a third-party laboratory to achieve a fire resistance limit of 1.8 hours – far exceeding the 1.5-hour requirement of local regulations. For low- and medium-risk areas such as accommodation areas, we configure economical single-layer rock wool panels to help contractors optimize 30% of building material costs through precise grading solutions.
This intelligent fire protection configuration based on UAE regulations has been successfully applied to multiple energy projects and has become the designated insulation system for energy companies in the Middle East.
UAE Prefabricated House Foundation Design
When building prefabricated houses in the UAE, the foundation design must face the low bearing capacity requirements of the local sandy soil. K-HOME’s base solutions can meet the needs of a variety of environments. Our modular container foundations are set up in 3 ways, divided into embedded fixings, expansion screws, and anchor bolts. These methods can fully meet the needs of local geology and environment.
Whether it is a modular container house or a light steel structure prefabricated house, these three foundation systems follow the same engineering principles.

Collaborative solutions for different prefabricated container houses
Prefabricated container houses are the most popular way to build labor camps for energy mining projects in the Middle East. With the advantages of modular design and rapid installation, the prefabricated container solutions provided by K-HOME for the Dubai Oil Camp perfectly meet the customers’ dual needs for efficient construction and high customization.
In response to the special requirements of the oil camp, we have adopted a collaborative operation mode of flat-pack containers and detachable containers through rigorous environmental testing. The flat-pack container house adopts an integrated roof and ground structure, which can be quickly built with forklift operations, greatly shortening the construction period; while the detachable container house provides flexible customization capabilities and supports on-demand adjustment of structure, height and functional configuration. For example, in the Dubai Oil Camp project, we customized a 5.5-meter floor height for the workers’ kitchen, designed a hollow roof compartment and integrated a refrigeration system to effectively cope with the challenges of the high temperature environment in the Middle East.
K-HOME has been deeply involved in the Middle East market for many years, always focusing on customer needs. Our prefabricated container house system can not only achieve rapid deployment, but also provide full-scenario solutions from standard accommodation to special functional areas for energy projects through modular combination and functional customization. Whether it is adaptation to extreme climates or the integration of supporting facilities such as energy and pipelines, we can tailor a cost-effective camp construction plan for you.

Cost Breakdown for Prefab Houses in UAE
The cost of prefabricated houses in the UAE varies depending on the type of structure, degree of customization, and shipping costs. Standard container houses are usually priced between $1,500 and $2,000, while light steel structure prefab houses are priced per square meter, depending on material specifications and design complexity.
We understand that every project has unique requirements, so the price of prefabricated houses in the UAE is not fixed, but is calculated based on actual needs. If a standardized structure is used, the cost will be relatively low; however, if a highly customized design, special materials, or additional supporting facilities are involved, the price will increase accordingly. In addition, the cost of shipping from the factory to the final destination is also a key factor affecting the total cost, and this cost may be affected by global market fluctuations.
