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.

  • Designed for the commercial environment

  • Flexible PVC sheet in 1.5mm-2mm thick

"Second time I have used service, it was as good as the first. Great comms from start to finish. Even though the delivery driver was independent, he carried on the great service and made sure everything was correct, very polite and went above and beyond his needs. Already recommended to a number of local people that are now looking into buying a similar product." Robertson Pens Scotland
