Updated
A converted container makes a tough, portable office that is ready the day it arrives. Built on a high-cube shell for standing headroom, a site office is insulated against the heat, fitted with air-conditioning, lighting, power sockets, a lockable door and windows — so your project team, security post or welfare room is working immediately rather than waiting on a construction fit-out. It is far more secure and weather-tight than a timber portacabin, it is craned on and off a truck in one lift, and it moves to the next project when this one finishes. We supply standard office layouts and modify to your plan — add a toilet, a kitchenette or partition it two-to-one.
