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.
