Rustic Cladding
Classic Rustic is our lowest cost option for cladding your container.
Cladding the container
We fix timber batons using 38mm long galvanised nails through the container wall and seal around to prevent leaks. The cladding is then nailed onto the batons. As a more expensive option, we can weld 25mm x 25mm box section onto the container to create a frame in which to screw the cladding.
