HOW DO BESPOKE CONTAINERS/SKIPS DIFFER FROM STANDARD?

Not every project can be served by a standard 15-40 yard skip. Our bespoke containers are engineered when you need more than the usual options:

Custom Sizes - Built to your exact dimensions where standard footprints don’t fit.
Special Features - Drop doors, demountable sides, reinforced floors or coatings.
Tailored Strength - Heavier gauge steel and additional reinforcements for demanding conditions.
Compliance Built-In - All products meet Safe Working Load and LOLER requirements.
Operational Fit - Designed for your handling equipment and transport routes.
Branding Options - Painted to match corporate colours with stencilled or vinyl logos.

Every bespoke build is designed in-house with CAD and stress analysis, and manufactured in the UK to the same CHEM-standards as our standard range.

HOW RORO CONTAINERS ARE DIFFERENT

Manufactured in the UK using trusted suppliers.

Standard rope hooks, lifting pins and goalpost end structure for safe handling.

Fully welded steel construction with 4mm side panels and 5mm base plates (standard units: 3mm side panels).

Rear door system with ratchet and secondary locking mechanism for secure operation.

Heavy-duty PFC/RHS steel sections throughout for strength and stability.

Fitted with rollers as standard for hooklift compatibility, making our RoRo containers fully compatible with fleets across the UK.

Painted finish (25-40 litres) for corrosion resistance and presentation, in one RAL colour of your choice.

(Standard units only) Reinforced door channels, gussets, flitch plates, A-frame bulkhead support and ladder rungs.
