We offer THE ORIGINAL flat pack storage container

Kovobel flat pack container - best alternative to a shipping container

Our flat pack containers offer many advantages over shipping containers. They are easy to assemble and disassemble when not in use or at times when you need to relocate the flat pack container. Each of the 6 panels can be carried or manhandled to the final assembly location, so access is simple. The assembled storage container can be lifted by a forklift or crane, making site relocation a breeze.

The Kovobel container is designed to be fully weather-resistant with natural ventilation. Unlike a standard shipping container, condensation is not an issue. This keeps all your stored possessions dry and protected from the elements.

Our heavy-duty container floor is constructed from a galvanised steel frame over 35mm thick wooden tongue & groove planks for long life. Kovobel has never used a cheaper OSB or chipboard. This makes our container floor stronger than any other flat pack floor. Strong enough to drive a car in!

Our flat pack containers are made of high-quality galvanised steel. Our smallest flat pack containers come in at (L) 1m x (W) 1.2m x (H) 2.2m, and our largest standard storage container is (L) 6m x (W) 2.2m x (H) 2.6m.M

What are flat pack containers?

Flat pack containers are modular containers designed to be easily assembled and disassembled, making them a versatile and adaptable storage solution. Our Kovobel flat pack containers are made from galvanised steel. The simplified construction process allows for faster and more efficient installation compared to traditional shipping containers.

Flat pack containers are available in various sizes and configurations, catering to diverse storage needs. They can be used for a wide range of applications, including storage of tools, equipment, furniture, or even as a garden shed or workshop. Their modularity allows them to be easily expanded or combined to create larger storage spaces.

Are flat pack containers secure?

Flat pack containers can be secure when properly assembled and secured with additional measures. Kovobel containers are made from galvanised steel providing a sturdy structure. Securing the container to the ground with concrete footings or anchors further enhances protection. Employing locking mechanisms like padlocks, deadbolts, or electromagnetic locks and augmenting them with security bars and chains further deters unauthorised access. Maintaining well-lit surroundings and installing motion-activated lights and security cameras further safeguard the container's contents. Integrating these security measures transforms flat pack containers into secure storage solutions.

Are flat pack containers waterproof?

Yes, flat pack containers are designed to be waterproof, with watertight seals and weather-resistant materials to protect stored items from rain, snow, and humidity. The corrugated steel or aluminium panels used in flat pack containers are naturally water-resistant, and the joints and seams are sealed with sealants to prevent water penetration. Additionally, the roof of the container is typically angled to allow rainwater to drain away, and the container is often raised slightly off the ground to further prevent water from seeping in.

Additional features like double doors, windows, vents, and insulation can increase the price. At Kovobel.uk we offer a range of flat pack containers to suit various needs and budgets.
