Case study of the month

April 2026

30ft kiosk cafe, 40ft bike workshop, 40ft bike store - CS103116

This trio of containers were completed for The Dalmellington Parish Development Trust in Aryshire, to provide facilities to support a new cycling hub. Transformed with wood cladding on the outside and a range of moderations inside, the three recycled shipping containers have been transformed beyond recognition. With three separate spaces for a cafe, storage, bike hire and maintenance facilities, the units were dropped into place along side each other upon delivery, to fit neatly into the car park next to to the cycle track.
