Tricon Storage Container

The Tricon Storage Container is a compact, high-strength steel unit built for remote project sites, military logistics, offshore support, and commercial storage operations. It delivers the load security and weather resistance of a full-size intermodal container in a much smaller footprint, making it a practical choice for yards with limited space or for modular storage clusters. The ISO Tricon Container is equipped with standard corner castings and forklift pockets, so it can be repositioned quickly with container handlers, cranes, or rough-terrain forklifts. For defense and emergency response missions, the Military Tricon Container configuration includes reinforced framing, upgraded door hardware, and corrosion-resistant coatings that perform reliably under repeated handling. When clearance or access is limited, the 6.5ft Tricon Shipping Container offers a compact modular footprint that can be used alone or linked with additional units to create secure storage arrays. The unit is compatible with twist-lock securing systems and standard container lifting equipment, reducing the need for special rigging.


The Tricon Storage Container is engineered for operators who need dependable storage without sacrificing mobility. The all-steel body resists impact, abrasion, and corrosion, while the fully welded frame holds its shape through repeated stacking and long-distance transport. Three units can be combined to match a standard 20-foot container footprint, which simplifies freight planning and allows efficient use of trailer space. Heavy-duty double doors open into a weather-sealed interior, and the anti-pry lockbox with reinforced hinge plates helps protect tools, medical supplies, communications gear, and other high-value cargo. Ventilated side panels support passive air movement, reducing condensation and helping keep interior humidity low in tropical or coastal environments. This storage container is widely used for temporary workshops, field offices, tool cribs, generator enclosures, and secure document storage at mining, construction, and disaster response sites.

Handling and Placement Guidelines

Before positioning the container, prepare a level gravel pad or concrete slab to keep the door alignment stable and prevent standing water around the base. Use a spreader bar or rated forklift tines at least 72 in (1.83 m) long when lifting from the side pockets. Always engage all four twist-lock shoes before lifting by crane, and do not exceed the maximum gross weight listed above. When stacking multiple units, align corner castings vertically and insert twist-lock connectors at each corner. Anchor the lower container to ground lugs or ballast blocks in high-wind zones to reduce shifting risk. After placement, inspect door seals, latch hardware, and ventilation openings every six months, and retouch any paint damage with compatible anti-corrosion coating.

Optional Upgrades

  • Interior LED lighting kit with surface-mounted conduit
  • Heavy-duty shelving and tool rack system
  • Insulated wall and ceiling panels for temperature-sensitive cargo
  • Additional security hasps and padlock shields
  • External tie-down rings for helicopter sling operations
  • Custom exterior paint color to match site branding

The structural frame is continuously welded and coated with a marine-grade primer and high-durability topcoat. Door hardware, lock rods, and corner castings receive additional anti-corrosion treatment for saltwater and industrial exposure. Each unit is pressure-tested for weather tightness before dispatch, and all load-bearing welds are inspected against ISO dimensional and strength requirements.
