Our shipping containers are engineered to endure harsh marine environments while maintaining exceptional durability. Key features include:
Standard air vents to minimize moisture buildup
Optional moisture traps available (last approximately 3 months per unit)
Designed for heavy-duty performance, our containers deliver reliable protection in even the most demanding conditions.
Our containers are built with security as a priority, featuring:
For additional security, we offer:
Security note: While our containers are extremely robust, we always recommend reinforcing the locking mechanism – typically the most vulnerable point in any secure storage solution.
Any metal surface exposed to temperature variations will inevitably suffer from condensation, but there are ways to mitigate this. Evidence shows that the construction of modern containers helps prevent condensation, and the quality of the paint now used also contributes to this.
Condensation is more likely to occur when a container is sitting on cold, damp ground such as soil; the cold from the earth permeates the container, lowering the temperature of the air inside and thus causing condensation.
All air contains moisture; therefore, reducing the amount of air in the container minimizes the chances of condensation. This can be achieved by ensuring items are placed inside on a dry day. Additionally, a container can be vented on a dry day to allow air to circulate.
Shipping containers are relatively low maintenance. Shipping containers that are used as static storage rarely require any attention, the steel work is unlikely to deteriorate as long a it is coated in high-quality paint. Door hinges and locking bars require lubricating with oil to keep them free moving, and the door seal will deteriorate over time, but again, these are easily replaced and should last in the region of 10 years.
Shipping Container homes can be more budget-friendly than traditional houses. The container home price depends on several factors. While building the container home, it’s important to consider that additional costs may arise for land purchase, permits, insulation, utilities, and modifications. If you’re planning to build a container house, it’s important to check these extra expenses to get the complete budget for the investment.
