Originally invented in April 1956 by American trucking entrepreneur Malcolm McLean, shipping containers revolutionized the global transport industry, making shipping more efficient, streamlined and cost-effective. Corten steel boxes, built to withstand harsh ocean conditions, are now proving their worth on land in innovative and unexpected ways.

Eveon's customers, from individuals to large-scale corporations, are repurposing 20ft and 40ft containers for a range of applications beyond storage. Whether it's transforming a container into a bug-out bunker, a livestock shelter, a sustainable swimming pool, or a stylish Man Cave or She Shed, the possibilities are endless. However, the majority of buyers—including builders, real estate developers, government agencies, and businesses—invest in used containers for their original purpose: secure, affordable, and weather-resistant onsite storage for parts, equipment, and resources.

Despite being largely ignored as they travel across highways and oceans, shipping containers have a remarkable lifespan. Typically decommissioned from ocean transport after 13-15 years, they still have decades of life left under the right conditions, making them an eco-friendly and cost-effective solution for multiple industries.
