Mad about Football?

We decided to use the likenesses of two of our very own sales team Mason Stavri & Charlotte Rainey, to demonstrate just how far you can take a container conversion.

It doesn't have to be a football den, either. Whether you need a secure home office, a garden room, or the ultimate fan cave, shipping containers are built to adapt.

Why choose a container conversion?

Fully Customised: Add electrics, lighting, windows, standard doors, or full glass bi-folds.

Flexibility: Sizes ranging from 6ft to 40ft to fit any space.

Maximum Security: Solid steel construction paired with heavy-duty lockboxes makes them a far safer alternative to a standard garden shed.

Rethink your space and give your garden an upgrade that actually lasts.

A few weeks before the World Cup we held a Word Cup preview event with our brand ambassador Tony Cottee. Here we have Tony & Mitch, our MD, talking about England's chances. Impressively Mitch predicts that we'll play Mexico in Mexico. He predicted we'd lose, fortunately that wasn't the case.
