A recycling company has purchased a sea container canopy from us, model C3340 (width 10 length 12m height from the top of the concrete blocks 3.60m). The container shelters will be used as storage for recycled parts at the demolition point for used white goods. The company deals with the demolition of old washing machines, cookers, hoovers and other used appliances. Such a box made of container shelters and concrete blocks serves as a warehouse that can be operated with a mini-loader or forklift. The operator of the loader, can calmly scoop the processed material into the bucket and does not have to worry about damaging the storage wall.
Goods under the roof are protected from UV radiation, rain, snow and wind. The recycling process uses various machines that cannot stand outside, which is why companies in the recycling industry choose our products and build warehouses from them that are cheap, quick to assemble and dismantle.
Container shelters are inexpensive and fast storage units that can be easily assembled and moved to another location. Assembling the product from the photos takes about 2 working days for 3 people and a loader.
Thanks to its simple but sturdy construction, consisting of hot-dip galvanised pipes and a thick PVC tarpaulin of 750 g/sqm, the container shelters can withstand winds of up to 80 km/h and snow of up to 20 kg/sqm. The curved shape of the canopy causes the snow to slide off the container shelters' tarpaulin. This does not exempt the owner from removing the snow in the event of heavy snowfall. Freezing snow can stick to the structure and this then causes a risk to the structure of the container canopies. In areas where snowfall is heavy, it is necessary to attach heating rods to the purlins of the container shelters. Only switch on the heating rod when it is supposed to snow. The heating rod will briefly raise the temperature and melt the snow on the PVC tarpaulin.
The simple construction of the container shelters, the enclosed paper instructions in all European languages and the instructional video also in all European languages make it possible to install this inexpensive storage unit yourself.
As you can see from the photos, container shelters are a versatile type of shelter that can be erected on various structures, such as shipping containers, concrete block walls, concrete retaining walls, stone gabion walls/piles, silo walls, settling walls and steel structures.
