Unlike standard containers that only open at one end, this unit features full-length side opening concertina doors as well as standard rear double doors. This allows complete side access, making it ideal for forklifts, long cargo, machinery, shelving systems, workshops and retail displays.
Manufactured from high-grade corrosion-resistant Corten steel with a strong marine-grade plywood floor, the 10ft open side container is fully wind and water tight, durable and secure. These units are commonly supplied as one-trip (new) containers, ensuring excellent condition and long service life.
Industrial Containers supplies open side containers nationwide, including Gauteng, Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Free State, North West and Northern Cape.
