Insulated Shipping Containers
Condensation problems in shipping containers
Storing delicate items in fluctuating temperatures
If you are using your container to store items such as furniture, or papers and documents for archiving, you will find these goods can suffer from moisture damage, caused by condensation as the temperature outside the container drops during cold months. If liquids are being stored there is an even the risk of these freezing in extreme weather conditions. For instance, Containers Direct supplied a container to a mountain rescue team, to store emergency medical equipment. The container is currently on top of a mountain in Scotland - dry and frost free on the inside as it is a fully lined and insulated container.Types of insulation offered
For a cheap and easy option we offer Grafotherm anti-condensation spray on the roof of the container. This will slow down the spread of condensation but will not eliminate it completely. For the complete elimination of condensation we recommend choosing ply or melamine lining and insulation. Ply lining is a good all rounder for containers used for storage, and melamine lining is mostly used for container conversions, such as portable offices, classrooms or catering units.
