Custom-Branded 40ft Shipping Container for Sea Trans, Felixstowe

Boxtor recently supplied and delivered a used 40ft standard height shipping container to Sea Trans, a leading logistics and freight services company based in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

To meet the customer’s operational requirements, the container underwent a full external respray in RAL 5013 (Cobalt/Dark Blue) before delivery, providing a smart, professional finish that aligned with the company’s branding and site aesthetics.

Combining a cost-effective used container with our in-house refurbishment services, Boxtor delivered a durable, secure and visually refreshed storage solution ready for immediate use. With nationwide delivery and a wide range of refurbishment and modification options available, we help businesses across the UK maximise the value of their shipping container investment.

The Requirement

Sea Trans required a cost-effective storage and operational container solution for their Felixstowe facility. While a used 40ft standard height container met their practical storage requirements, maintaining a professional and consistent brand image across their site was equally important.
 
The client requested that the container be repainted to match their corporate colour scheme, ensuring it integrated seamlessly with existing assets and company branding.

The Solution

Boxtor supplied a quality used 40ft standard height shipping container, carefully selected to provide secure, weatherproof storage while offering excellent value compared to a new unit.
 
To meet Sea Trans’ branding requirements, our team carried out a full external respray in RAL 5013 (Cobalt Blue/Dark Blue). The container was prepared and refinished to create a clean, professional appearance that aligned with the client’s visual identity.
 
Scope of Supply
  • Used 40ft standard height shipping container
  • Container inspection and preparation
  • Full external respray in RAL 5013
  • Delivery to Sea Trans’ Felixstowe site

The Outcome

The finished container provided Sea Trans with a practical storage solution while enhancing the overall presentation of their facility. The bespoke colour finish ensured the unit complemented existing company assets and reinforced brand consistency across the site.
 
By choosing a refurbished and repainted used container, Sea Trans benefited from:
  • Reduced capital expenditure compared to purchasing a new container
  • Improved site aesthetics
  • Consistent corporate branding
  • Secure and weather-resistant storage
  • Fast turnaround and deployment

Client Benefits

Brand Consistency
The RAL 5013 finish enabled the container to match Sea Trans’ established branding, creating a professional appearance for staff, visitors, and customers.
 
Cost-Effective Solution
A high-quality used container delivered the functionality required while keeping project costs under control.
 
Sustainable Choice
Reusing and refurbishing an existing shipping container helped extend its service life and reduced the environmental impact associated with manufacturing a new unit.
