Sco-Terra Operations Group Inc. – Custom Container Modification

Description:

TargetBox partnered with Sco-Terra Operations Group Inc. to complete a custom 40ft High Cube container modification, purpose-built to support the company’s drinking water and wastewater operations in Staples, Ontario.

First, the container was prepped and painted for exterior durability, ensuring long-term protection in demanding environments. Entry is provided through a 36” commercial steel entry door, offering secure and reliable access.

Inside, the container features a complete liner package that includes 2×4 wood stud framing, 2” spray foam insulation, and 3/8” PVC sheeting, creating a clean, moisture-resistant and temperature-controlled workspace suitable for technical operations.

For added safety and functionality, the interior floor was upgraded with a 3/16” steel check plate that includes a 6” lip and anti-slip coating, ideal for heavy-duty use. The build also includes two custom floor openings and a steel-framed wall opening designed to accommodate an HVAC unit, ensuring ventilation and equipment integration. Following completion, the container was successfully delivered to Leamington, providing Sco-Terra with a durable, insulated, and highly functional solution built to perform in the company’s specialized field operations.
