We can convert a simple container into a fully functional area by installing anything from hatches, windows and doors, and partitions to air conditioning units, heating, and insulation. We have the expertise available to completely project manage your development depending on the experience you have and the input you require. Shipping container conversions can utilise both new and used 10ft, 20ft and 40ft ex-shipping containers, although, Lion Containers (Fabrications) Ltd recommend the use of new containers in most instances to achieve a polished end product, unless of course you seek the industrial look offered by used containers.
