Cladding containers is a popular way to alter the way a container looks. Customers may choose to do this to help it blend in, or contrast to its surroundings.
Customising a container with external cladding is becoming increasingly popular with customers, particularly for use as a catering pod or a bar. Cladding can also be used for standard storage containers, which this customer chose to do.
One Trip Shipping Container for Storage, Delivered to Hayfield, Derbyshire
This shipping container was supplied to a parish council for storage use. They opted for a 20ft shipping container which is our most popular container size. We used a one-trip container for this customer. One-trip containers are only approximately 6 months old. This means they have a smart neat unit with a long lifespan.
They don’t need to be a one-trip; we also offer refurbished and used shipping containers, so different needs and budgets can be catered for too.
In this case, the customer decided to get cladding on the outside to make it a little easier on the eye.
Thermowood Timber Cladding for a Shipping Container
For this job, the customer included a cladded exterior using thermowood. This provides the container with a cosmetic upgrade. As this container was going to be used for storage in a field they wanted it to have a more “natural” look.
We offer many cladding options, but this customer chose thermowood. This type of wood is more sustainable as it doesn’t use chemicals when treating the wood. This process makes the wood resistant to decay, and makes it very durable. The thermowood gives it a clean, warm look that can make the container more aesthetically pleasing.
Other Timber Cladding Options for Shipping Containers
Cladding isn’t just restricted to thermowood, however!
Other options we’ve previously supplied include:
- Red cedar
- Neo-composite
- Basic timber cladding
Cladding can be used both to help a shipping container either blend-in or stand out. This really depends on the function it will serve, or the environment the container will be in. An option such as cedar will give the container a more natural look compared to composite cladding.
Different cladding options also have different levels of durability therefore would require less maintenance.
This unit was made to order at our conversion yard in Liverpool, but we can offer similar works across the UK. You can even visit our Liverpool depot to view the amazing range of cladding options if you wish.
