    Are you looking for a shipping container to convert into a workshop?

    Whether you’re a professional handyman or hobbyist with a passion for creating things, shipping container workshop conversions can provide just the working space you need. Using a container as a workshop has several benefits. One major benefit is the fact that our containers are virtually impenetrable, so you can have peace of mind knowing your kit is safe and sound. They’re also weatherproof, temperature controlled, spacious and built to last decades. We can also create something bespoke to your needs, as we have a team of highly skilled engineers on hand who love to get creative with container customisations.

    When creating workshop conversions, we look to create a working environment that is unrestricted and comfortable. First, we insulate the structure to keep it warm and dry. Next, we can add doors, windows, electrics, lighting and flooring. From there, we take whatever inspiration or design you give us and do our very best to materialise your vision. We’ll work with you from the beginning to the end of the project, ensuring the conversion fully meets your expectations.

    We just had a container delivered for our Community Pantry in Dalkeith and we cannot recommend RFB enough. Their prices were good, their service was excellent and the truck driver was brilliant, and positioned the container exactly where we needed it within millimetres, quickly and efficiently, in a most joyful manner. Thank You.
