Challenge:
Like any custom container project, this build presented some challenges:
- Time Constraints: The client needed the container completed within a three-week timeframe to align with their equipment delivery schedule.
- Material Selection: Given that the container was intended for chemical storage, we had to ensure all materials were fit for purpose, meeting industry standards for safety and durability.
- Future Adaptability: Since the container was to be further modified on-site once the machinery arrived, the initial design had to be flexible enough to accommodate additional alterations.
Solution:
To meet the project’s requirements, our team implemented the following solutions:
- Bespoke Fabrication: We started with a new 1-trip 20ft shipping container, ensuring a pristine condition and a long service life.
- Bi-Fold Opening Design: The container featured large bi-fold doors, allowing easy access for loading and unloading machinery.
- Chemical Bund Installation: A custom bunded flooring system was installed to contain potential chemical spills, meeting environmental and safety standards.
- Precision Planning: We worked closely with the client to ensure that the container’s layout would seamlessly integrate with their planned on-site modifications.
- Efficient Turnaround: Through our streamlined manufacturing process, we successfully completed the project within the three-week deadline.
Outcome:
The finished container was an excellent example of a tailored industrial storage solution. Delivered via HIAB transport, it was safely lifted into place at the client’s facility. The bi-fold opening system provided maximum accessibility, while the bunded flooring offered essential protection for chemical storage. The company was extremely pleased with the final product, as it provided a secure, adaptable, and compliant storage solution.
Conclusion:
This case study highlights the benefits of bespoke shipping container modifications for specialised industries. By combining custom designs, high-quality materials, and precise execution, we provided an efficient, tailored solution within a short timeframe. Whether for chemical storage, machinery housing, or general industrial use, our expertise in container conversions ensures that we can meet even the most specific client needs.
