Timber Cladding
Timber Clad Shipping Containers
Timber cladding transforms a standard shipping container into a warm, professional, and visually striking structure. Designed to soften the industrial appearance of steel containers, our timber-clad conversions are ideal for customer-facing environments where appearance matters just as much as performance. Whether used for kiosks, cafés, retail units or public spaces, timber cladding gives your container a high-end, purpose-built look while retaining the strength, security and durability of a steel unit beneath.
Timber Cladding – Pricing & Specification
Timber cladding is not a fixed, off-the-shelf product. Every timber-clad container is designed and built to order, with pricing based on your exact requirements.
The final cost will vary depending on:
-
Container size (10ft, 20ft, 40ft or bespoke layouts)
-
Full or partial cladding
-
Timber type and finish
-
Overhangs, fascia's and trims
-
Openings such as windows, roller shutters and personnel doors
-
Whether the unit is cosmetic only or fully kiosk-ready
Because no two builds are the same, we price each timber cladding project individually to ensure the best finish, value and longevity.
