Sea cans are made from Corten steel (a group of steel alloys). The durability of Corten steel eliminates the need for painting by forming a stable rust-life look after weather exposure. These containers are weather resistant, providing a sturdier option than aluminum containers. Design elements include reinforced corners and water-tight doors. Corrugated panels are strong enough to withstand stacking pressures and nature while travelling. Sea cans are constructed and reinforced by welding panels to reinforced steel beams. After this stage, the manufacturer adds floors and doors. The general lifespan of a used container is 10-12 years, depending on its usage. A single-trip container can last for over 25 years.
Despite a sea can’s durability and weather-resistant features, owners must still maintain them. You should regularly inspect and clean containers to ensure they remain in excellent condition. Immediately treat any signs of dents or rust. Other suggestions include:
1. Keep It On Flat Surfaces
No matter the purpose, the container must remain on flat surfaces. Check the ground using a level to ensure it is perfectly flat. Many owners keep them on railway sleepers or concrete pads to eliminate moisture from under the container. Containers should be in well-drained locations to prevent corrosion.2. Clean Water and Dirt
Sea Cans are portable storage rooms. Just like any room, you must clean and maintain your sea can. To clean the container, use a high-pressure water hose and commercial detergent to remove contaminants. Once clean, remove extra water and allow it to fully dry, as excessive amounts of water can cause rust. Additionally, it is essential to maintain hinges with commercial-grade steel cleaners and lubricate them using WD-40.3. Treat Rust and Remove Dents
While containers are weather-resistant, they are not fully rust-proof. Owners should regularly inspect the interior and exterior for cuts, scuffs, scratches, and dents and treat them using sealants, paint, or rustproofing methods. Dealing with dents is critical to maintaining the shipping container’s integrity. Examine the roof closely, as this is a common location for dents. When stacking, ensure the weight remains on the corner to limit pressure on the roof. Dents can cause water accumulation, leading to corrosion.Aside from shipping and storage, sea cans offer other solutions, such as:
- Hospitality Industry: Sea cans have a unique appearance that is attractive to businesses looking for container kiosk solutions. They can add an upscale touch to any trendy, modern, or industrial decor. From up-and-coming cafes to small, cozy boutiques, sea cans appeal to customers with their eco-friendliness and novelty.
- Emergency Shelters: Sea cans offer reliable and fast shelter in disaster-prone locations. They are ideal because they are easy to transport and set up, offering a secure area for those who need it.
- Modular Offices and Homes: With the push towards sustainable living and rising housing costs, owners can convert sea cans into eco-friendly, cost-effective container homes or offices.
Sea cans are becoming more popular for several reasons, from cost-effectiveness to their potential for custom design elements to their small carbon footprint. Their durable material ensures protection against changing weather conditions. Furthermore, their water-tight element provides additional security against rain and snow, allowing contents to remain dry. Sea cans have a lockable design for those storing valuable products or sensitive materials. Stackability creates efficient space usage in locations with limited square footage. Sea containers are a great option for creating retail spaces or building tiny homes. These containers can be placed on properties of almost any size, without the need for renting, leasing, or purchasing a building. They are low-cost and can be customized to suit your needs. Converting this space has very low overhead costs, making it a smart choice for anyone looking to save money.
