Container Case Study
Shipping container toppers are a great way to expand storage capacity if you have no extra land available. They are designed to sit directly on top of existing containers, allowing storage yards to build upwards instead of outwards.
Lion Containers recently supplied six container toppers to a Midlands-based storage yard company looking to increase secure storage without expanding their footprint.
What Was the Client Looking For?
The client operates a busy storage yard in the Midlands. Demand for units had increased, but space on site was limited.
They needed:
Six secure units
Fast turnaround
A green finish to match the site
Strong security features
Delivery within days, not weeks
How Did Lion Deliver the Solution?
Lion keeps a batch of shipping container toppers in stock for immediate dispatch. This allowed the team to process the order within five days.
The required colour was already available. Lion finished all six units in RAL 6007 Green to match the client’s existing setup.
Because the toppers were in stock, Lion arranged delivery within the same week.

The six container toppers were:
Finished in RAL 6007 Green
