Frequently Asked Questions
Does a white reefer remain clean in construction industry environments?+
On reefer (refrigerated container), HACCP paint thicker, easy to clean. On dry 40' foot container white, construction environment: no, quick soiling. Prefer RAL 7016 (grey) for construction. The RAL 9016 remains relevant for 'clean' use: medical, clean room, covered showcase, dispensary.
How much does a key-ready mobile clinic 40' foot white cost?+
Container 40' RAL 9016 + insulation 100 mm + internal partitions + air conditioning 5 kW + plumbing + electricity + medical furniture: 35 000-55 000 € depending on equipment. Lead time 6-10 weeks. NGO solutions type MSF often around 45 000 €.
Why RAL 9016 and not RAL 9010 for humanitarian use?+
RAL 9010 (pure white) yellows in 3-5 years from UV — disaster in tropical climates (Africa, SE Asia). RAL 9016 (traffic white) UV stabilised lasts 8-10 years. Always specify 'RAL 9016' and not 'faded white' on quotes to avoid confusion with applicators.
Is specific insulation required for a mobile clinic in a tropical zone?+
Yes, minimum 80-100 mm rock wool insulation + forced ventilation (extraction fan 200 m³/h) + air conditioning 5 kW. A white roof reflects ~75 % of radiation, but without internal insulation the temperature remains 35-40 °C in full sun. True consultation comfort = 22-26 °C.
