A regular Mr Box customer who services naval ships asked us for another batch of workshops. The workshops can be easily moved around the dock yard, and when needed placed on-board ship. This means the dock workers have a fully equipped workshop close by, as opposed to dockside, thus saving a lot of time.
This time they wanted 20ft engineering workshops, but with the added benefit of being open sided. They also asked if we could incorporate a covered open-air area.
