Vinyl Flooring in Shipping Containers

Vinyl flooring is a popular choice for container conversions, for both catering facilities and offices.

With its neat and professional looking finish it's also waterproof, durable and easy to keep clean with a simple wipe over. Shipping container floors are made from plywood, laid over a steel chassis. Before laying vinyl we pin 6mm ply to the container floor to ensure an even, smooth finish. We overlay this with vinyl, cutting the sheets to size and shape, and gluing directly to the existing floor. We then weld rod strips to the floor and, using a special machine that melts the strips, we seal any separate pieces together for a neat, seamless finish.

Specifications and colours

The product we use is Polyflor XL, which ensures quality and high performance. The standard colour we offer is Flint Grey, although we can fit any colour shown on the chart, subject to a premium.

Features of Polyflor XL:

  • Designed for the commercial environment

  • Flexible PVC sheet in 1.5mm-2mm thick

  • Slip resistant

  • Duotone marbleised effect

More heavy duty?

Commonly used in our catering conversions and bathrooms, this vinyl floor tile provides a heavy duty non-slip surface! Thicker than standard vinyl roll it gives a more comfortable, attractive finish to the container floor.

Mild Steel Alternative

Used as standard in our chemical stores and workshops, this non-slip Durbar flooring is made from durable mild steel and fully seam welded to the floor of the container. It can also provide a professional finish as an alternative to traditional lino in workshops or catering units. Give us a call to discuss prices!
