Office Containers – Case Study: Customized, Flexible and Sustainable Workspace Solutions

The demand for versatile and sustainable workspaces has led to an increased interest in office containers. At VS&B Containers, we've taken pride in repurposing marine containers into functional office spaces tailored to meet our clients' specific needs. In this blog, we highlight three recent container conversion projects that demonstrate the flexibility and utility of these unique workspace solutions.

Case Study: Customized Office Container Solutions for Modern Businesses

Case A: Multi-Container Office Conversion with Storage Space

In a recent project, we successfully converted 3 x 20-foot and 1 x 40-foot high-cube containers into office containers. This included a 40-foot high-cube container customized to serve as an office space with a manager’s cabin and a hall featuring 10 workstations.

The 40-foot container was equipped with:

• Air-conditioning for both the manager’s cabin and the workstation area.
• Overhead storage and proper insulation to ensure a comfortable working environment.
• A tarcol sheet roof to prevent water seepage and increase durability.

Case B: Large-Scale Office Containers for a Global Leader

In another project, we delivered two 40-foot high-cube containers to serve as temporary office spaces for their technicians and workers. These containers were designed to support a large number of workstations:

• Container 1: 16 workstations (8 on each side)
• Container 2: 3 manager cabins and 6 workstations

Both containers were air-conditioned and designed to meet the high standards required for international projects. These office containers not only provided the necessary space but also allowed the team to work in a comfortable and organized environment while installing machinery at the customer’s factory.

Case C: 20-foot General Purpose Office and Storage Containers on Lease

We recently leased 2 x 20-foot general-purpose containers to a customer for their Railway Locomotive Sheds project sites. These containers served a dual purpose: one half of each container was an air-conditioned, insulated office space, while the other half was a secure storage area for tools and machinery.

Key features include:

• Air conditioning, lighting, and fans for the office space.
• Overhead storage for added utility.
• Tarcol sheet roofing and ACP sheet cladding for durability and a polished look.
• Dual branding with both VS&B and customer’s logos displayed on the containers.

These containers were leased for a period of three years, providing the customer with a cost-effective, portable, and compliant solution that could be easily relocated as project requirements changed.
