<h2>Why are containers rejected?</h2>
<p class="p1">Many containers used for transport have CSC certification, which guarantees the safe use of the container. With regular and intensive use, a shipping container may at some point no longer meet the requirements of this certification and will be rejected. This means that the container may no longer be used for transport unless it is reapproved.</p>

<h2>What are common reasons for rejecting a container?</h2>
<p class="p1">A container is rejected when it no longer meets the technical or safety requirements of CSC certification. The most common reasons are:</p>
<ul>
<li class="p1">Cracks, holes, or dents in the roof, floor, or walls.</li>
<li class="p1">Dents or hatches that do not close properly.</li>
<li class="p1">Lack of water and liquid tightness.</li>
<li class="p1">Structural damage or reduced strength.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Is it worthwhile to purchase a rejected container?</h2>
<p class="p1">In some cases, it is definitely worthwhile to opt for a rejected container. After five years, shipping containers must be re-inspected every 30 months. If a container is rejected, it can often still be repaired. With the help of the specialists at Hacon Container Modifications, these containers can be repaired. They can then be reused for transport and will once again comply with the applicable certifications.</p>
<p class="p1">If a container can no longer be repaired, it is given the status BER (Beyond Economical Repair). A BER container may no longer be used for transport, but can still be used for other purposes.</p>

<h2>Why choose a rejected container?</h2>
<p class="p1">Even without CSC certification, a rejected shipping container can be very valuable. You might choose a rejected container if, for example:</p>
<ul>
<li class="p1">You want to use it as a storage container on private property or as a permanent storage facility;</li>
<li class="p1">You have a limited budget but are looking for a sturdy container solution;</li>
<li class="p1">You do not need CSC certification;</li>
<li class="p1">You want to have the container refurbished or custom-made.</li>
</ul>

<h2>FAQ</h2>
<p class="p1"><strong>What does BER mean on a container?</strong><br>BER stands for Beyond Economical Repair. This means that repairing it would cost more than the container is worth. However, a BER container can often still be used for other purposes.</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>When is a container rejected?</strong><br>A container is rejected as soon as CSC certification is no longer issued. This can be due to cracks, poorly closing doors, or structural damage, for example.</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Can a rejected container be repaired?</strong><br>Yes, often. It is a matter of weighing up whether repair is economically viable. With the right modifications, a container can often be reused.</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Can a rejected container be used for transport?<br></strong>Not without CSC certification. For (inter)national transport, the container must first be repaired and reapproved.</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>What are rejected containers most commonly used for?<br></strong>For permanent storage locations, both private and business. They are often part of a permanent installation.</p>

<p>Need extra storage space? Hacon storage containers offer the solution. Whether you want to store items temporarily or simply don't have enough space for your stock in your workshop or warehouse. Our versatile containers are available in various sizes, from compact 4-foot to spacious 40-foot storage containers for heavy-duty use. Whatever you want to store, it all fits in a container. And we are happy to tell you below how you can make the most of the space in a storage container.</p>
<p> </p>

<h2>1. Choose the right size container</h2>
<p>The first step is, of course, the container itself. What exactly do you want to store? And will it remain just these goods, or will your stock grow soon? These are all questions that determine what size container you need.</p>
<p>The smallest (mini) storage container is 4ft. That is approximately 4,6 m3. Ideal for storing small materials and goods, such as (garden) tools, generators, lawnmowers, and computers. If you need more space, we have 5ft, 8ft, or 10ft storage containers available. Of course, our standard 20ft and 40ft containers are also very suitable for storage. You can create up to 68 m³ of storage space with a flexible storage container!</p>

<h2>2. Choose the right version</h2>
<p>Size? Check! Now the question is: what type of storage container do you need? For example, do you have goods that need to be kept refrigerated? Then you need a reefer as a storage container. No refrigeration but do need electricity? Then you naturally need a container with a power supply, such as the shelving/electricity container or our Hacon Solar container.</p>
<p>In addition to power options, we also offer various high cube storage containers for extra height. The type of storage container varies considerably. Fortunately, our container specialists can accurately assess your needs. We are happy to assist you!</p>

dca28e64d00f_hacon_solar_met_stellingen.jpeg

<h2>3. Strategic placement of goods in a storage container</h2>
<p>Are you setting up your storage container for the first time? Make sure you organize the container properly. Height is your best friend when storing goods, so make the most of it. Place heavy items at the bottom and lighter items on top. Do you need to regularly take items out of the storage container? Then clear a clear walkway so that you can easily access every section of the container. Put items you need often at the front and less frequently used items at the back. This not only makes your container more efficient, but also safer to use. Do you have so many items that you cannot create a walkway? Then choose a container with multiple doors, such as a double door container, open side container, or all side open container. This allows you to create a walkway along the outside of the container, as it were.</p>
<p> </p>

<h2>4. Use of shelving units</h2>
<p>Efficient vertical storage is worth its weight in gold. Shelving units not only allow you to store more items, but also keep everything organized and accessible. Stack boxes and other items neatly on the shelves and make sure you can always easily reach the items in the middle. This saves time and effort when searching for the right items.</p>
<p>We have various containers that come standard with different types of shelving units, but you can also place shelving units in the container yourself. This allows you to determine the layout yourself, while ensuring efficient storage.</p>

<h2>5. Have a container completely modified</h2>
<p>If you are unsure whether a standard storage container is the right solution, we are happy to go the extra mile to customize a container to your exact requirements. When modifying a container, we tailor it precisely to your needs. This could include fixed shelving units, storage racks, mounting points, or storage hooks that are customized for your goods. Would you like a workshop and storage space in one? We will ensure that it is perfectly designed and adjusted for you. There is a container solution for every storage need!</p>

<p>He may have been a familiar face at Hacon Containers for decades, but from now on we can officially introduce Joeri Roos as the new director of Hacon Container Modifications. This 41-year-old technology enthusiast began his career at the age of 16 as an assistant mechanic in commercial construction. He preferred practice over theory and traded books for a welding machine. All of this has brought him to where he is today: director of Hacon Container Modifications. His secret? Swimming against the tide and doing things just a little differently. We interviewed Joeri about his career and future plans as the new director of HCM.</p>

<h2>Growth and change</h2>
<p>Joeri's adventure at Hacon Containers began in 2007 as a freelancer. He did some jobs for the special construction sector, but when the number of requests increased enormously, we were able to persuade Joeri to join Hacon. Since then, he has witnessed the growth and transformation of the company at close quarters. “We started out as a repair company for shipping companies, but now we are the leading specialist in container modifications,” explains Joeri. In 2022, it was even decided to make Hacon Container Modifications a separate branch of the company, with its own location and its own team of container specialists. This opened up various opportunities for the company to specialize even further in container modifications. And with success!</p>

af139280c1c0_hacon_oktober.jpg

<h2>The Swiss Army knives of the container world</h2>
<p>Joeri makes no secret of the fact that he has always followed his own path. “Books and textbooks? Not my thing,” Joeri admits. “I prefer to work with my hands. What my eyes used to see, my hands could make.” It's no surprise that Joeri still enjoys regularly walking around the workshop. It allows him to stay in touch with the practical side of the business. He is proud to see how his team, both in the office and in the workshop, has developed over the years. “We are now effectively a construction company,” explains Joeri. “Our shell is a container, but we do construction, carpentry, insulation, electrical work, and much more. We are like the Swiss Army knives of the container world; we have a solution for every problem!” </p>
<p> </p>

<h2>Memorable projects</h2>
<p>Joeri describes the Hacon Container Modifications team as young and creative, full of passion and freedom to innovate. One of the highlights for Joeri and his team is a major project for a Mammoet crane. “HCM is an important supplier for the largest land crane in the world,” Joeri says proudly. “The counterweight section of the crane consists of specially built containers that we supplied.” This project was a huge learning curve for Joeri and also his first reason for a business trip to China. It was a project that certainly left him wanting more and one that the whole team worked on with great enthusiasm.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Keep the (team)spirit high!</h2>
<p>Joeri sees teamwork as crucial to success. “Everyone feels responsible for a project, which creates a close-knit team,” he says. His biggest challenge in his new role as director is therefore to maintain this team spirit and ensure that everyone moves with the changes in the company. And those changes will continue to come, if Yuri has his way. “The upward trend in development, professionalization, and quality control makes HCM indestructible, and this is a trend I would like to continue.”</p>

<h2>What will the future bring?</h2>
<p>In his new role as director, Joeri wants to focus on transferring knowledge and inspiring people to pursue self-development. “I have always swum against the tide and want others to have the opportunity to look beyond their own limitations.” Joeri also wants to distance himself somewhat from the office and the workplace, because he has a team there that he has enormous confidence in. This gives Joeri the freedom to travel regularly to China, where he can discuss projects and develop business relationships. </p>

<p>And HCM isn't the only thing Joeri will be busy with in the coming months. On October 8, 2024, Joeri is getting married! “We've been together for two years now and are very happy together. Our mothers knew each other from prenatal yoga and lived in apartments next door to each other. However, we had never met before, so it feels like it was meant to be.”</p>
<p>Joeri's story is an inspiring example of what you can achieve with hard work, creativity, and a healthy dose of (self-)wisdom. We wish Yuri every success in his new role as director of Hacon Container Modifications!</p>

<p>A container typically has two doors on the short side. However, our promise is: “Everything fits in a container.” So how do we get extra-long and/or wide items inside? That's where our open-side containers come in. This container family is available in several variants, and the possibilities are endless, just like the view from the container!</p>

<h2>What is an open side container?</h2>
<p>An open side container from Hacon is not just any storage box. It is an ingeniously designed container that can be opened completely on one long side. This creates a container solution that is literally and figuratively versatile.</p>
<p>The open side container is mainly used to load extra-long items that do not fit through standard container doors. Think of steel pipes or wooden beams. Because you can load these goods through the side of the container, much more can fit into a container, making it a lot easier to transport and store these products. A typical case of ‘work smarter, not harder’.</p>

<h2>What are offshore containers?</h2>
<p>Of course, Hacon Containers is known for its containers, but as Erik points out: “I've been working with containers for years, but offshore is a whole different world. It makes it a lot more interesting and challenging. Especially with the internationalization of the offshore division within Hacon.”</p>
<p>There is no shortage of challenges. Offshore containers must meet very different requirements than normal containers. Simeon: “Of course, they are just containers, just like the other containers at Hacon. But they are a lot stronger, equipped with lifting eyes, and have various certifications.” But what are the biggest differences?</p>

<h2>The biggest differences between an offshore container and a normal container?</h2>
<p>Offshore containers must be built much more robustly than normal containers. For example, these containers have a steel floor and the metal is much stronger to withstand harsh conditions. In addition, the containers are often equipped with lifting eyes so that the container can be hoisted by a crane.</p>
<p>Because offshore containers are used in many extreme locations, they must have additional certifications, including DNV 2.7-1, EN 12079, ISO, and CSC.</p>
<p>Every year, a visual inspection is carried out by a certified company, and every four years, an MPI inspection is carried out, during which, among other things, the welds of the lifting points are checked for “leaks.”</p>

<h2>A day in the life of an offshore container specialist</h2>
<p>Simeon and Erik totally agree: no two days at Hacon are the same. Simeon: “After running this department on my own for four years, it became too much and I needed someone to help out. I travel more and more often and regularly visit trade fairs abroad, but the work in the Netherlands continued as usual.” Erik adds: “Now there are two of us, and we know that when one of us is traveling or attending a trade fair, the other will take care of the work at the office.”</p>
<p>The internationalization of Hacon's offshore division means that Erik and Simeon are both increasingly likely to be found at trade fairs around the world. A few days before this interview, Erik was in Düsseldorf, and Simeon has also visited various trade fairs in Europe, Asia, and the USA this year. Erik and Simeon can often be found at the office, but a week later, Simeon may be on a plane to visit a major customer abroad.</p>

<h2>Proud and modest: there is always room for improvement</h2>
<p>When you say ambitious, you say Simeon and Erik. They both strive for the highest possible standards and have already attracted some great clients as a result, but Simeon still finds it difficult to be proud: "I don't get proud very easily; there's always room for improvement. But if there's one thing I'm proud of, it's the growth of the offshore division within Hacon that I achieved in the four years before Erik joined and now with Erik on board. We now also have our own name: Hacon Offshore &amp; International."</p>
<p>Erik is also extremely proud to be part of Hacon Offshore &amp; International. “I am proud of what we have achieved together, and I am extremely proud and happy that I said yes six months ago when Simeon asked me to become part of Hacon Offshore &amp; International.”</p>
<h2>No shortage of wanderlust</h2>
<p>Of course, Simeon and Erik are not offshore container specialists all day long. Outside of work, they are involved in various non-container-related activities. But traveling? They love to do that, both for business and pleasure. Simeon: "I love traveling. Not only do I take advantage of opportunities to see the world through my work, but I also enjoy going on vacation with my wife in my private life. We have come through a difficult period, and thanks to the growth at Hacon Containers and Hacon Offshore &amp; International, I can now offer my family everything they need.</p>
<p>Like Simeon, Erik also enjoys traveling to different countries. He has been visiting Spain for years and it has become a favorite destination that he truly enjoys. But that doesn't mean he hasn't seen a lot of the world and still wants to see much more. Erik and his husband also enjoy eating out. Erik: “When you go out to eat with your partner, you have different conversations than you would on the couch. It keeps your relationship exciting and you can enjoy yourselves together.”</p>
<h2> </h2>
<h2>The future of Hacon Offshore &amp; International</h2>
<p>What the future holds is not entirely in the hands of Simeon or Erik. But they certainly have ambition. Simeon explains: “In the beginning, it was mainly about sending. Showing your face a lot, but now more and more companies know and recognize you. We see this reflected in our growth, and we are doing everything we can to continue this growth.” Erik adds: “One of our last batches consisted of 20 offshore containers. These were sold before we even received them. This shows our customers' confidence in us and demonstrates that we are growing.”</p>
<p>Growth requires hard work, but at an employer such as Hacon Containers, it is fully facilitated. Both Erik and Simeon agree that Hacon Containers has an open working atmosphere where you are encouraged to be yourself. It doesn't matter how you do it, as long as the results are achieved. Erik explains: "Everyone is allowed to show their own strengths. Simeon and I are two completely different people, but this interaction works very well and Hacon supports this too." In addition to this positive working atmosphere, Hacon Containers also organizes various annual events for its staff, such as the annual family day and the Harbour Run.</p>

refurbishment.png

<p>At Hacon Container Modifications, we believe in craftsmanship, sustainability, and making the most of existing materials. Our refurbishment program is a perfect example of this. We started out refurbishing standard containers and small tanks, but now we also work on generators, flat racks, ISO tanks, cabinets, and even complete living containers. In short: if we can give it a new lease of life, we will.</p>

<h2>What does refurbishment entail at HCM?</h2>
<p>At HCM, refurbishment means that we turn old, used containers into neat and fully functional products. This extends the service life of these containers by often as much as 5 to 10 years. It is a sustainable solution that is not only good for the environment, but also for our customers' wallets. Containers do not have to be destroyed or replaced, but are made as good as new.</p>

<h2>From repair to complete upgrade</h2>
<p>The requests we receive vary greatly: from replacing a bar hatch to completely refurbishing a living container. Sometimes it's just a matter of spraying a container, sometimes it's the whole package. Refurbishment therefore encompasses a wide range of activities for us: welding, electrical engineering, interior work, woodworking, and, of course, preservation. We do this with a team of around 20 specialists, each with their own area of expertise: welders, sprayers, electricians, interior workers, and more. A real club of handymen.</p>
<p> </p>

<h2>De kracht van samenwerking</h2>
<p>Een refurbishmentproject begint altijd met een grondige inspectie: wat is de staat van de container, wat zijn de wensen van de klant en wat is er technisch en esthetisch nodig om het product weer helemaal in orde te maken? We communiceren hier transparant over en stemmen alles vooraf af, inclusief foto's en prijsindicaties. Zodra alles duidelijk is, plannen we de werkzaamheden in en zorgen we ervoor dat alles soepel verloopt.</p>

<h2>The spray shed as the final piece</h2>
<p>Although refurbishment at HCM involves much more than just spray painting, the spray booth often plays an important role in the end result. Here, parts and entire containers are given a new coat of paint. This can be standard colors, but also specific company colors when, for example, an entire container fleet changes its corporate identity. Thanks to good preparation and an efficient working method, we can work quickly and neatly. And that is reflected in the result.</p>

<h2>Practical examples</h2>
<p>We are particularly proud of our larger projects, such as refurbishing entire living containers that are used worldwide as canteens, kitchens, changing rooms, or warehouses for groups of people. These projects bring together all of our areas of expertise: from construction and interior design to electrical work and finishing touches. We also provide added value for container fleets. While we spray them in a new color, we immediately carry out the necessary maintenance and make upgrades where possible. </p>

<h2>Sustainable into the future</h2>
<p>Refurbishment and sustainability in general are really important to us. By giving used containers a second life, we are actively contributing to a circular economy. We are therefore constantly looking at ways to make our processes more sustainable and improve them. This ensures that we can continue to refurbish containers in the future in a way that is consistent with the quality and responsibility we stand for. </p>
<p>Would you like to know more about what refurbishment can do for your container? Feel free to contact Youri 't Mannetje, our Refurbishment Coordinator, or one of our other specialists at HCM. </p>

<p>Want to take your next company party to the next level? Then go big with a real bar container. Whether it's a company party, drinks reception, open day, or team-building event, a bar container is not only a practical addition but also a real eye-catcher at any business event. We're happy to tell you more about it in this blog. </p>

<h2>What is a bar container / serving container?</h2>
<p>A bar container or distribution container is specially designed for events and offers a versatile space that can be converted into a bustling bar, a distribution point, a souvenir shop, or even an information point. In fact, you can use it in any way you want, depending on your needs. In addition to events, they are also suitable as distribution containers in, for example, the petrochemical industry.</p>
<p><br>But why choose a bar container or serving container for your next corporate event? First of all, it adds a unique and industrial touch to your event. This fits perfectly with modern themes and contributes to an unforgettable experience for visitors. In addition, a bar container is completely mobile and can therefore be used wherever you want. From your own company premises to a popular festival location.</p>

<h2>Meet the Hacon bar container</h2>
<p>Our own bar container, the 20ft dispensing container, measures 6 x 2,4 x 2,6 meters. This gives the container plenty of space for your dispensing point or bar. The space is ideal for storing supplies, while the large hatch allows for efficient serving. The container is also equipped as standard with a secure steel door with double locking, ventilation grilles, a wooden floor, power points, and lighting, making the bar container ready for immediate use. We call that plug &amp; play!</p>
<p>Hacon's bar container is regularly used as a temporary bar during various events. But we are also seeing the bar container being used more and more often as a distribution container. From a temporary doughnut stand during the annual Christmas market to a permanent flower stand at the shopping center. You choose how you want to use the Hacon container.</p>

<h2>The eye-catcher of your corporate event</h2>
<p>The beauty of the 20ft distribution container is that you can customize it to suit your needs and style. The containers can be delivered in any RAL color and even feature your company logo. This contributes to the overall branding of your event, but also ensures that you have an eye-catcher that visitors will remember for a long time to come.</p>

<h2>Sustainable and responsible partying</h2>
<p>It is also important to note that choosing a container bar is a sustainable choice. By recycling shipping containers for use at events, for example, you are contributing to an eco-friendly system. If your company strives for sustainability and corporate social responsibility, choosing a container bar will send a positive message to employees, customers, and other visitors to your corporate event. So it's not entirely insignificant!</p>
<p> </p>

<h2>Custom containers for every occasion</h2>
<p>Is the bar container the new gadget for your next company party? You can rent or buy the bar container, depending on your needs and budget.</p>
<p>Do you have any questions or need more information about our bar container? Please contact us. But you can also contact one of our container specialists at any time, without obligation, if you have any questions about our other containers, modifications, and all the possibilities a container offers. Because whatever you want, we can fit it all in a container!</p>
