Beyond the standard box we supply ISO tank containers for liquids, side-open units for forklift loading along the length, double-door units that open at both ends, and modified shells: a modified site office, living units, storage with extra doors, insulation, wiring and paint.

The tank figures below are the reference for the 20′ tank. Side-open and double-door units share the dry-container footprint of their size (see the 20ft dry container). Modified units are quoted against the drawing you send us.

Typical uses

Liquids in bulk: chemical grade or food grade
Forklift loading along the side
Site offices, living units and stores
