Steal the show with a converted container

Designed to carry cargo worldwide, shipping containers are strong and safe. Taking your business with you is simple. Even better, your container can arrive fully furnished, with everything your business needs, including the kitchen sink. No fuss. No hassle.

So, whether you sell food, beer or clothes, a converted container for events and marketing is ideal. Pay less. Enjoy easier serving and better business.

Serve more with a shipping container bar

A shipping container bar will give you more time to profit, travelling well to each event. Altogether, this means you get every opportunity to be successful. Your shipping container bar can also be fitted with taps, stools, shelving, roller shutters and more to get you ready from day one.

Exterior designs can include:

  • Decking areas
  • Roof terraces
  • Multiple stores with stairs
  • Bi-fold doors

Remember, shipping containers are extremely customizable. Consider a saloon-style interior, or paint in block-neon colours for a retro vibe. Essentially, your shipping container bar is as standard or iconic as you like. We’ll work with you to raise the bar for your business, so you can inspire and attract more customers.

Kick-start your container cafe

Shipping container cafes come in all shapes and sizes. New or used to suit any budget, a container conversion is portable, perfectly equipped and low-priced. Indeed, shipping container cafes are ideal for start-ups – supporting their business growth from the very first event.

Once more, Pentalver’s design team will help you get the most out of your new space. Think coffee machines, storage for stock, dishwashers and more. Plus, we can decorate the interior, so you don’t have to lift a finger.

With a shipping container, an on-the-go or static cafe is a piece of cake.

Go further with a shipping container shop

A shipping container shop is sturdy, secure and great value for money. That is, a shipping container can be converted into many types of shop. Whether you need a pop-up shop, or a permanent space, changing rooms or tills, Pentalver will design your dream shop to the last detail.

Shipping containers also have a long life expectancy. Truly, an investment for any business. A recycled container is kinder to the environment as well as your bank balance.

FAQs

A container exposed to sunlight and cold can suffer from condensation, especially if the interior, or the contents of the interior, are damp. Condensation can usually be prevented by the use of disposable dehumidifiers or the more efficient anti-condensation technique of spraying the ceiling with Grafo. Please speak to our sales staff about applying a coating of Grafo to your container before delivery.

Shipping containers are designed to be fully waterproof, including the doors which are fitted with full wrap around seals. International Standards Organisation (ISO) containers are designed to last many years and withstand overseas crossings with laden cargo.

The structure of the container is designed to be supported by four corners with a full load should you require it. The land base could be grass or soil but it must be firm throughout the duration of the container placement. Also the ground should be level helping the container to remain stable. The doors may become difficult to open or indeed worse if the end frame of the container moves out of square.

When padlocked through the available holes in the door gear, they are secure but can be made more secure by the fitting of a lock box, which protects the lock from interference (and the elements).
