Case study of the month

June 2026

35ftx10ft extra-wide office

Most businesses need office space and the solution isn't always bricks and mortar in an urban location. For example, this case study highlights an office we built for a business in technical construction that operates from farmland in Hampshire. Serving hospitals, laboratories, dentists and vets with medical gas pipelines, an on-site office is an essential part of operating a business. Our standard ModiBox® portable offices are constructed from standard 8ft wide shipping containers, but when our clients require extra-width inside their office we can either use the joined-up containers method, or as seen here, build a brand new 10ft wide container. At 35ft long with a wood cladding and featuring a sloping roof, this is an impressive office!
