Description

High-Clearance Solution for Heavy-Duty IBC Storage Container

Storing Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) requires more than standard space; it demands safe vertical clearance, floor strength, and structural integrity. Our 20ft High Cube Container delivers an external height of 9ft 6in (2.89m), giving you 37.4 cubic metres of usable volume.

Standard 8ft 6in containers often create operational bottlenecks when loading 1,000-litre IBC totes via forklift or stacking them on bunded pallets. The additional foot of headroom in our high-cube units ensures smooth loading, optimal airflow, and sufficient space for overhead lighting, sumps, or specialized ventilation setups.

Key Structural Features & Advantages

  • Extra Headroom (9’6″ Exterior Height): Accommodates 1,000L IBC totes, bunded spill pallets, and tall industrial equipment without clearance issues.

  • CORTEN Steel Construction: Premium anti-corrosive steel frame and corrugated side panels designed to withstand harsh outdoor UK environments.

  • Marine-Grade Plywood Flooring: 28mm thick treated plywood floor rated for heavy forklift axle loads and concentrated IBC footprint weights.

  • High-Security Protection: Comes standard with a factory-fitted steel lockbox to shield padlocks against bolt cutters and physical tampering.

  • Weatherproof Seal: Full 270-degree double doors fitted with high-specification rubber weather gaskets to keep moisture, wind, and pests out.

  • Passive Ventilation: Multiple air vents reduce condensation buildup and promote air circulation around stored liquids and chemicals.
