Shipping Containers 20 ft Bunded stores conversions

This 20-foot shipping container is set up as a bunded store for the safe, compliant on-site storage of hazardous materials, chemicals, and fuels. Built from heavy-duty Corten steel, this converted unit offers a durable, secure containment solution for industrial, agricultural, and commercial use. Its compact footprint and integrated spill pallet make it an efficient way to achieve compliant chemical storage without giving up valuable workspace.

Key Features

• Integrated Bunded Containment: A liquid-tight sump within the floor provides secondary containment for stored drums or IBCs, helping prevent environmental contamination from spills or leaks.
• Robust Steel Construction: A Corten steel frame and corrugated walls offer high-strength integrity and corrosion resistance for long-term outdoor use.
• Secure Locking System: Lockable double doors with integrated steel locking rods provide secure access control for high-value or hazardous contents.
• Ventilation: Standard passive ventilation louvers reduce fume buildup and condensation for a safer internal environment.
• ISO Standard Footprint: Built to standard ISO dimensions for efficient transport by truck, rail, or ship and easy handling with standard forklifts and container handling equipment.

This 20 ft bunded storage conversion is a practical, durable way to manage hazardous materials. Starting from a structurally sound ISO shipping container, the unit is modified to add a fully welded, leak-proof containment floor. This bund creates a secure secondary barrier so that any spills from the primary containers are captured, helping with compliance to environmental protection regulations.

The container keeps its original weather-resistant Corten steel shell, built to withstand harsh weather and suited to outdoor placement. The double-swing doors at one end open fully for easy forklift and personnel access, making loading and unloading of bulk materials or equipment straightforward. At a standard 20 ft length, the unit offers ample capacity while staying a manageable size for tight sites. It is a turnkey solution for businesses needing to store fuels, oils, solvents, and other regulated substances securely and responsibly.
