Shipping containers are hot property right now, and for good reason. Their versatility, strength, portability and affordability means they’re the number one choice when extra storage or workspace is needed. Couple shipping containers with container domes built to withstand the harsh Australian climate, and you have a complete worksite solution.
The Shipping Container Advantage
Shipping containers are easily modified to function as offices, site sheds, amenities blocks, workshops, accommodation and storage rooms. While customisation is key for many businesses, for others the main benefit of using shipping containers is their ease of relocation. Building permanent structures on site is often not feasible or cost effective, so a modified shipping container fits the bill perfectly.
The Perfect Match
Take two shipping containers and a container dome and what do you have? Well, whatever you want really. This combination is the starting point for your complete and versatile worksite solution. We can modify the shipping containers to meet your specific needs, and the addition of a dome shelter creates valuable sheltered work or storage space. Best of all, the final installation will be strong, weather resistant, secure and cost effective!
