Uninterrupted Support Through Emergency Living Containers

As Dorçe Prefabricated and Construction Industry and Trade Inc., we carry the responsibility of being one of the industrial organizations that takes the fastest action during the most challenging times of our country. Since 2009, within the framework of coordinated operations conducted with the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority of the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Türkiye (AFAD), a total of 70,000 containers and emergency living units have been dispatched to earthquake and disaster affected regions.

Record Production and Dispatch Capacity: Up to 560 Units Per Day

In disaster logistics, where time is of critical importance, Dorçe’s integrated manufacturing facilities are activated at full capacity. Depending on the scale and urgency of the need, production, dispatch, and on site installation performance ranges from 200 to 560 units per day.

This operational speed enables thousands of families to gain access to safe and secure shelter within just a few days.

Pre Assembled and Ready Delivery From Factory to Site

Taking into account the limited workforce and equipment conditions in disaster areas, all containers and living units produced by Dorçe are fully assembled within our factories. Units are loaded onto trucks with all electrical systems, water installations, and insulation works fully completed, and are delivered to the site in a ready to use plug and play condition the moment they are unloaded.

Comfortable and Fully Equipped Container Cities

The large scale Container Cities established with tens of thousands of emergency living containers go beyond being a temporary solution and aim to preserve the living standards of earthquake affected families. These living spaces are optimized in terms of thermal insulation, durability, and ergonomics, and are equipped with all necessary facilities to allow families to continue their daily lives in comfort.

With its strong production infrastructure and logistics network, Dorçe continues to be a key pillar of Türkiye’s disaster response capacity.
