Container Case Study
What Problem Did the Client Face?
LettUs Grow wanted a reliable way to expand their indoor farming systems. They needed a mobile solution that delivered stable temperature, reliable airflow and consistent growing conditions. Traditional buildings limited their growth, so they explored container-based solutions.
They required two 40ft units that offered:
- Strong insulation
- Easy access for maintenance
- Room for equipment
- A clean and professional exterior
How Did Lion Containers Provide the Solution?
Lion Containers designed two 40ft high cube containers specifically for indoor farming. The team focused on durability, climate stability and a smart layout.
Insulation and Climate Control
- The team lined the container and insulated it to support controlled-environment growing.
- This insulation reduced heat loss and created stable conditions for indoor farming systems.
Functional Layout
- Lion fitted a personnel door for easy access and created internal partitions to separate growing zones from technical areas.
- This layout improved workflow and helped LettUs Grow manage their equipment more efficiently.
Ventilation and System Support
- Lion also installed vents and prepared the structure for HVAC systems.
- These features allowed LettUs Grow to control airflow and temperature with precision.
Exterior and Sealing
- Lion finished the container with a clean exterior coating and also sealed every joint to reduce energy loss and support efficient indoor farming operations.
What Results Did the Client Achieve?
LettUs Grow launched their first modular indoor farming units. They improved their growing efficiency, saved energy, and increased output. Their new containers supported fast deployment in urban areas and helped them expand their sustainable food-growing model.
