THE CONTAINER SHELTERS DIFFERENCE

Why We're
Different.

Most shelters look the same on paper. The differences show up after a few seasons of Australian weather. Here is what we build differently, and the reasoning behind each decision.

WHAT WE DO DIFFERENTLY

The details that show up in year five

Every one of these costs us more to build. Each one is here because we have seen what happens when it is left out.

Hot dip galvanised container shelter frame

01 — Galvanising

100% hot dip galvanised. Every structural component.

Most of our competitors hot dip galvanise their main structural components, but not everything. We galvanise every structural component, bracket and fitting that goes into your shelter. It costs more to do. It is the only way to guarantee long-term rust protection across the whole structure rather than most of it.

Every structural component and bracket. The only exceptions are consumable hardware like ratchets.

02 — Kedar Technology

Next generation kedar. Zero flogging.

Flogging is cover fabric slapping and chafing against the frame in the wind, and it is the fastest way to wear out a shelter. We eliminate it using a kedar strip locked into an aluminium track along every wall and door frame. The cover is held firm. It cannot move, it cannot flog, and the shelter lasts significantly longer as a result.

Flogging is the number one cause of premature shelter wear. This removes it entirely.
Purpose-built rope-free fixings on a container shelter frame

03 — Fixings

Engineered to be rope-free.

Rope is the first thing to fail on a shelter. UV, wind and moisture degrade it quickly, and once it goes, so does whatever it was holding. We have engineered rope out entirely, replacing every fixing with purpose-built hardware designed for long-term outdoor use. All new shelters we build are fully rope-free.

Purpose-built hardware on every fixing point. No rope anywhere in the structure.

04 — Cover Colour

White covers. We measured why.

White is standard on every shelter we build, and we can supply grey, green, blue and yellow when a site calls for it. But we steer people away from dark colours, and we have the numbers to explain why.

  • We put our own white and grey covers side by side on a 30°C day. The white measured 31°C. The grey hit 50°C.
  • At 50°C a cover goes tacky, stretches, and becomes genuinely difficult to work with.
  • That expansion and contraction across a summer accelerates wear on dark covers, and often means re-tensioning after a few weeks.
  • White reflects the great majority of the sun's UV, which is what keeps the heat out in the first place.
  • A white interior is bright enough to work under without lighting. Coloured covers make for a much darker space.
  • Despite what people assume, white does not get dirty faster. Every colour shows dirt at the same rate.
We ran the test ourselves and kept the data. Ask us for the cover temperature comparison.
