From transforming shipping containers into functional office spaces and bespoke storage units to receiving prestigious awards for groundbreaking designs, this blog showcases the company's commitment to excellence, innovation, and client satisfaction that we achieved in 2023.

Willbox has a new addition to our hire fleet: 12ft welfare units for hire. Our innovative 12ft welfare units are powered by solar technology and boast conveniences from heated wash areas to fully equipped kitchen.

Refrigerated containers are very useful for any business that needs to store their goods in a temperature-controlled environment. However, this type of container needs regular inspection and maintenance.

Shipping containers and site accommodation units after long use can show signs of damage, so you have to make sure that you are maintaining your container in a good state.

Willbox offers a variety of shipping containers for hire and sale, and we have explained the differences between all the types of containers and their uses and applications.

Shipping containers have many purposes apart from transporting goods worldwide. Because of their versatility, they can be reused and many businesses take advantage of using containers as storage solutions. Recently garden centres adopted this practice as well.

Willbox's conversions team of experts created a new two-storey office building for Solent Stevedores entirely made from 11 professionally converted steel containers.

The purposes of using shipping containers are many and one of them is using them for events and exhibitions because they are easily customisable and movable with the appropriate transport equipment.

Willbox's biggest project for our conversions team was to create a 3,500sqft., two-storey office for Solent Stevedores, a large port terminal operational company.

There could be a steep decline this year in the global demand for shipping containers by sea, much steeper than anticipated, largely due to the stunted economic growth and dwindling customer inventories.

Our conversions team is thriving with their projects. Because of this, the work of James Dale and Ashleigh Wilkins is getting recognised and they have taken a step up in their container conversions career.

Bespoke container builds have continued to grow in popularity across the world because of their practicality and cost-effectiveness.
