Koala’s refurbished shipping containers are second to none! Refurbished containers are used shipping containers that have been reconditioned for aesthetics and durability.
Our team of container specialists take pride in every container refurbishment. Initially, all the internal and external surface rust is removed from the container. Following this, all door hardware is inspected and repaired if necessary. We then prime and paint the container with corrosion resistant paint. Finally, we grease the door hinges and bars so that they function better.
The usable life of shipping containers, which are used to transport freight to and from all over the world, is typically more or less 20 years. Weathering steel, or Cor-ten steel, has been used in the production of steel shipping containers for many years. Although containers are coated with a robust protective paint, any damage to this system reveals the bare steel, and Cor-ten creates an oxide layer that prevents further corrosion.
