This 40ft x 12ft custom built flat panel cabin was a container conversion project completed for Eddie Stobart’s, Universal Containers were delighted when this customer approached us again to help them out with a project they needed for their drivers. They wanted us to create a shower block for a truck stop in Rugby. The container conversion consists of 8 individual shower rooms, each including a shower, hand basin and bench for changing.
Additionally, they include 2 large vanity units with basins for drivers to clean / brush their teeth etc. The unit has been built to a high quality with multipro wall boards, fully insulated and full electrics including heating, hand dryers, air curtains and emergency lighting. It is also equipped with mirrors, coat hooks and glass shelves. Externally painted in blue.
At first the customer was uncertain of the size, so our specialist CAD team assisted them, creating designs which incorporate the full brief provided by the customer.
