A 20ft container, when empty, has a weight of 2.5 tonnes, while a 40ft container, when empty, weighs 4 tonnes. When fully equipped and converted, the 40ft container typically weighs between 8-9 tonnes.

The expected lifespan surpasses 50 years, and with minimal upkeep, it exhibits durability comparable to conventional construction while offering superior environmental friendliness due to methods of manufacturing, transportation and materials.

Our shipping container conversions are suitable for all climates because they are fully insulated, climate-controlled, and customised to handle specific weather conditions. Ventilation, exterior finishes, and smart design choices ensure comfort and durability in various climates.

Condensation on metal surfaces due to temperature changes is a common issue, but it can be managed. Modern container roofs with corrugated designs prevent water accumulation, reducing the risk of condensation compared to older flat roofs. To avoid condensation, we recommend using new "one-way" containers rather than second-hand ones with water-prone depressions on the roof.

Condensation is a concern in well-insulated modern buildings where moisture can become trapped. Effective ventilation is essential to address this issue.

Using spray-applied internal insulation with polyurethane foam eliminates condensation, making it our recommended insulation technology for containers.

High cube containers are the preferred choice for conversions compared to standard containers due to their added interior height, improved ventilation, increased natural light, enhanced design flexibility, and expanded storage possibilities.

Certainly, you can have a wood burner. It is advisable to consider its placement during the initial planning stage and arrange for the necessary connections during the construction phase.

The containers are engineered to endure the challenging marine conditions, making them exceptionally robust. Constructed from high-strength steel and treated with specialised coatings to enhance their resilience, they do not require frequent maintenance.

Yes, container homes are environmentally friendly as they repurpose steel containers, reducing waste and the need for new construction materials.

Converted containers can be a cost-effective solution for businesses due to their durability, mobility, and shorter construction timelines compared to traditional construction.

Yes, container homes can be easily connected to standard utility systems, just like traditional houses.

Yes, we specialise in converting containers for various commercial applications, including retail stores, offices, cafes, and more.
