This 10 ft shipping container has been modified for use as accommodation or temporary housing. The container is fully insulated, including the walls, floor, and ceiling. The insulation reduces heat transfer between the interior and exterior environments.
Standard air vents are installed to provide airflow and maintain interior air quality. The vents allow fresh air exchange while the container is occupied.
The door handles are positioned at a higher elevation than standard container handles. This design facilitates access when the container is used as a living or working space.
A lock box is installed on the exterior of the container. The lock box houses the door locking mechanism and provides protection for padlocks.
Forklift pockets are integrated into the base of the container. These pockets allow the container to be lifted and moved using a forklift without damaging the structure. The container is also stackable, permitting vertical stacking for storage or transport of multiple units.
The container is constructed from Corten steel. Corten steel is a weathering steel that forms a protective rust layer when exposed to the elements, reducing long-term corrosion.
Flooring is available in two options: wood or steel. The wood option is marine-grade plywood. The steel option is a solid steel plate floor.
The exterior can be painted in any RAL color. RAL is a European color matching system used for industrial coatings.
Optional features are available for this container. Windows with PVC shutters can be installed to provide natural light and privacy. Air conditioning and heating units can also be installed for temperature regulation.
