Sustainability and circularity form an important foundation within our business operations, ensuring that old maritime containers are never wasted with us. Containers that are no longer certified for worldwide sea transport are repurposed through us as static storage units, or are fully recycled and used as sustainable raw materials for innovative construction and modification projects.

Ask the team at Wilbert Trading BV about the environmentally friendly applications and sustainable repurposing options within our range.

The heavy, corten steel construction and the robust locking bars of our units inherently provide an extremely high barrier against theft, vandalism and harsh weather conditions. To elevate this mechanical security to the highest possible level, we equip our storage containers with a high-quality steel 'lockbox' that completely shields the theft-vulnerable padlocks from angle grinder or break-in attempts.

Both our brand-new units and our used containers with a valid CSC certification meet the highest standards and are guaranteed secure against break-ins as well as wind and watertight.

Yes, the options to fully customise and technically adapt a container to your operational processes are virtually limitless. From simply adding extra personnel doors, windows, ventilation louvres and power supplies to fully insulating and equipping a mobile workspace; we think along with you structurally to bring your vision to life.

Although containers were originally designed for global cargo shipping, modern applications today range from flexible construction site storage, tyre storage and archive rooms to advanced workshops and pop-up shops. Thanks to the modular design and the unprecedented strength of the steel, we are also increasingly seeing our units used as the structural basis for innovative architecture and temporary housing.

The experts at Wilbert Trading BV will be happy to advise you on the most efficient usability of a container based on your unique project needs.

For a successful and safe positioning of your container, it is essential that the ground surface is completely flat, level and has sufficient load-bearing capacity, ensuring that the container doors continue to operate smoothly in the long term. In addition, there must be sufficient driving and manoeuvring space around the location for our trucks to safely position the container in the right spot using the crane.

Transport is fully coordinated via our own specialised logistics network, with our drivers providing professional guidance during the on-site placement.
