Frequently Asked Questions About Container

  • What material are containers made of?

    Containers are manufactured from durable galvanized steel profiles. Especially Hekim Sandwich Panel coated containers do not have any paint, while acrylic exterior paint is sufficient for Hekim Board coated containers.

  • What can be put under the container?

    The foundation or bottom of a container is typically made of concrete. It provides a solid, flat surface for the container to rest on and helps secure maintenance. The base must be designed to withstand the weight of the container and the additional loads that heavy equipment or people will appropriately impose. In some cases, a container may be placed on a gravel or crushed stone foundation rather than a concrete foundation, but concrete is generally considered the strongest and most durable option
  • How are containers produced? What ingredients does it contain?

    The production process begins by cutting the panels of sizes determined according to the purpose and area of use of the container. Subsequently, the main carrier system of the container is formed by combining the panels and galvanized steel profiles, of which the walls, roof and floor are shaped, with bolts. Hekim sandwich panels are fixed by placing them on the appropriate sections of the carrier steel profiles and form the container. Then, equipment for systems such as doors, windows, ventilation and locking are mounted on the container. Hekim Sandwich panel covering material is used as wall and ceiling material in containers. EPS, polyurethane foam or rock wool is used as insulation material in the production of sandwich panels.
