Shipping containers in the ship are used to store various kinds of products. The products may range from food items to chemicals. Containers have to be durable enough to provide a suitable environment to the items stored within them.

Insulated containers are ideal for storage of products that are sensitive to condensation and extreme temperature. These types of containers are well insulated using polyurethane foam.

Refrigerated containers are ideal for storing products where the temperature needs to be controlled. The internal temperature of a refrigerated container can vary from +25 to -25 degrees centigrade. There are food items that need refrigeration to preserve them for longer sustenance. Chemical products have to be preserved for a longer time. For such applications, refrigerated containers are ideal.

Storage containers are used for storing almost all general products. The doors are lockable and the option of steel lock for security is also available. These containers comply with the ISO/CSC regulations and can also be used for internal shipment. Shipping containers are weather proof.

Storage containers could be fabricated and modified to suit the needs and requirements of the stored items. Storage containers can also be converted into makeshift changing rooms, offices, workshops and laboratories.
