 Container Projects Ltd manages the modification and supply of containers for site welfare and commerce. For organisations that need to [buy containers](https://container-projects.com/services/container-sales) for permanent installations or [hire containers](https://container-projects.com/services/container-hire) for temporary projects, we provide rapid delivery from UK depots. You can [get a quote](https://container-projects.com/get-a-quote) to confirm lead times for your specific conversion. Our logistics network ensures every unit reaches your site ready for occupancy.

We use [one-trip](https://container-projects.com/container-types/iso/general-purpose) units as the base for most conversions. A one-trip unit is a new container that has made a single journey from the manufacturer to the UK. Every unit intended for international transport features a CSC plate. A CSC plate is a safety approval plate required for international shipping to certify structural safety.

  ## Choose the right modified container type

Selecting a conversion depends on your required headcount and site constraints. Container Projects Ltd provides technical support for a wide range of site layouts.

### Modular buildings and workshops

We supply [modular buildings and site accommodation](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/modular-buildings-site-accommodation) units, including offices, canteens, and drying rooms. For industrial tasks, [workshop containers](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/workshop-containers) feature electrical fit-outs, workbenches, and secure storage for tools. If you need administrative space and storage in one frame, we supply [50-50 office stores](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/50-50-office-stores).

### Retail and aesthetic modifications

For brand activations, [pop-up retail containers](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/pop-up-retail-containers) include serving hatches and glass doors. We provide [clad and painted containers](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/cladded-painted-containers) to help steel units blend into sensitive environments or match corporate branding. To save ground space, [topper unit containers](https://container-projects.com/container-types/modified/topper-unit-containers) allow for vertical stacking.

  ## Condition grades and conversion quality

Internal conditions and thermal performance are vital for accommodation. We use units that meet the IICL standard for high-end offices. IICL refers to a high standard of container repair and condition set by the Institute of International Container Lessors. For basic workshop storage, we provide units graded as wind and watertight. A wind- and watertight unit is a condition grade that ensures the unit is sealed against weather and light. We confirm the tare for every delivery. The tare is the weight of the empty container.

  ## Delivery access and site placement

Container Projects Ltd coordinates [container haulage](https://container-projects.com/services/container-haulage) using hiab crane vehicles. Siting a modified unit requires careful preparation:

- **Ground Level:** Siting must be on a level, firm surface to prevent misalignment of doors and windows.
- **Vertical Clearance:** Check for overhead cables; stacked topper units can exceed 18ft in height.
- **Power Connection:** Most modified units require an external electrical hook-up.
