SHELTERS BETWEEN AND ON TOP OF SHIPPING CONTAINERS

She shelters between containers are a practical solution for expanding usable space. This modification allows for the connection of several containers, creating a larger covered area that can be used, for example, as storage, a workshop, or a garage. Shelters protect against adverse weather conditions and provide additional space for storing materials or goods. For outdoor storage, where it is necessary to prevent rain or snow, shelters between shipping containers are ideal. They are widely used, for example, in agriculture for large machinery or to store loose materials that can be outdoors but must remain dry.

INSULATION AND AIR CONDITIONING FOR A COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT

Insulation is a key element when transforming a shipping container into a living or working space. Proper insulation ensures thermal and acoustic comfort, which is necessary for long-term use of the container. Insulating materials are applied to the walls, roof, and floor of the container, which significantly improves its energy efficiency and overall comfort. Shipping containers can be modified for insulation as well as air conditioning, allowing for the storage of temperature-sensitive goods, such as food or pharmaceutical products.

Insulation and air conditioning for a comfortable environment:

  • Insulation of the shipping container for year-round use
  • Air conditioning in container buildings
  • Thermal insulation of the container walls
  • Soundproofing of the container
  • Energy-efficient containers
