<h2>From Container Supplier to Complete Partner in Storage, Modifications and Energy</h2>
<p>Time. You notice it in everything. In the Port of Rotterdam, which continues to grow. In the way logistics keeps becoming smarter and faster. And in companies that continue to evolve in order to stay relevant.</p>
<p>The Hacon Group is a perfect example of that. What started 45 years ago as a company trading shipping containers has grown into a versatile organization with several specialized companies under one name. And although much has changed over the years, one thing has always remained the same: the Rotterdam mentality of taking action, thinking along with customers, and getting the job done.</p>
<h2>Growing with the Market</h2>
<p>The container industry never stands still. Where containers were once mainly used for transport and storage, today they are part of complete custom-made solutions. This development required knowledge, flexibility and specialization — exactly the areas in which the Hacon Group continued to grow.</p>
<p>Over the years, several specialized divisions were added to Hacon Containers, each contributing its own expertise. With <a href="https://www.hacon.nl/modificaties">Hacon Container Modifications (HCM)</a>, we create custom container projects for a wide range of applications. <a href="https://www.hacon.nl/hacon-container-depot">Hacon Container Depot (HCD)</a> focuses on storage, maintenance and logistics services. Through Hacon Rental, we provide flexible rental solutions for temporary capacity and projects. And with <a href="https://www.hacon.nl/hacon-energy">Hacon Energy</a>, we respond to the growing demand for smart and sustainable energy solutions. DTC has also become part of the continuously expanding Hacon Group.</p>
<h2>Built on Trust</h2>
<p>In 45 years, you do not only build a company — you build relationships. Many of our customers have been working with us for years. Not only because we supply containers, but because we actively think along in finding the right solution. Fast communication, keeping agreements and a practical approach are part of our DNA.</p>
<p>You can see that mentality in everything we do. From standard storage containers to complex modification projects and innovative energy units: we believe in short lines of communication, clear agreements and solutions that simply work.</p>
<h2>Ready for the Future</h2>
<p>The world is changing rapidly. Topics such as sustainability, circularity and flexibility are becoming increasingly important within logistics, construction and industry. That is why we continue to invest in innovation, smart applications and sustainable solutions.</p>
<p>After 45 years, we look back with pride at where we started — but even more importantly, we look ahead to what is still to come. Because standing still is not part of the Hacon mentality. Over the past 45 years, we have proven that we can move with the times. And we will continue to do so.</p>

OTC Asia 1.JPG

<p>Last week, our colleague Siem Delfos, Commercial Manager and Offshore Specialist at Hacon Containers, travelled to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to attend OTC Asia 2026. This leading offshore and energy exhibition once again provided an inspiring platform for innovation, networking, and business development.</p>
<h2>Small-scale, yet powerful</h2>
<p>According to Siem, OTC Asia is a relatively compact and well-organized exhibition, contributing to its accessibility and dynamic atmosphere. At the same time, its open nature—without an entrance fee—attracts a wide variety of visitors. While this can make it busy, it also creates unexpected opportunities for new connections and insights.</p>
<h2>Innovations with potential for containers</h2>
<p>During his visit, Siem came across various innovative solutions and technologies that could become relevant to the container industry in the future. Some of these developments could even be directly integrated into, or built within, container solutions.</p>
<p>“There are interesting companies working on solutions that perfectly align with what we can achieve with containers,” says Siem. “A collaboration with Hacon Container Modifications could significantly strengthen the development of these solutions.”</p>
<h2>New leads in the offshore market</h2>
<p>In addition to exploring innovations, Siem spoke with several companies active in the offshore sector that already use containers, both onshore and offshore. Notably, many of these companies are not yet fully aware of the full range of possibilities Hacon offers.</p>
<p>According to Siem, this presents a clear opportunity: “There are companies already working with containers but not yet aware of how broad the applications really are. In the coming period, I will actively engage with these companies to explore where we can add value.”</p>
<h2>Networking remains essential</h2>
<p>As with any exhibition, networking played a key role. Alongside scheduled meetings, there was plenty of room for spontaneous encounters—often the moments where the most interesting conversations take place. Siem also reconnected with existing relations and familiar faces, highlighting Hacon’s growing network in the international market.</p>
<p>With valuable conversations, new connections, and fresh insights, we look back on a highly successful exhibition visit.</p>

<p>Working at Hacon Containers means being part of a dynamic environment where no two days are the same. Whether you work in the office, at the depot, or are involved in technical modifications: together we make sure our customers always get the best solution. We asked colleagues from different departments why they enjoy coming to work every day. These are their main reasons.</p>
<h2>1. No two days are the same</h2>
<p>At Hacon, you work in an environment where variety is the standard. Containers are no longer just “steel boxes.”</p>
<p>As our colleagues from the sales department point out, every request is different. Job, Sales Representative at our Purmerend location, notices that customers have a wide range of needs: “from a simple storage container to a canteen unit or even a fully modified container.” Wessel, Sales Representative at our headquarters in Rotterdam, adds: “one day you arrange an urgent delivery where a container needs to be on-site the next day, while the other day you’re in close contact with a customer about a fully customized project.”</p>
<p>This dynamic is clearly visible within the rental division as well. Sarah, who together with her colleagues Ferry, Marko, and Camillah is responsible for the rental branch, explains that you are involved in the entire process: from request to delivery. It’s exactly this speed and variety that make the job interesting and keep you sharp: you’re constantly switching, planning, and thinking along.</p>
<p>This variety is not only experienced in the office. Stef also highlights the diversity at the depot: “One moment you’re preparing offshore containers for departure, the next you’re working on warehouse planning, and then you’re preparing the depot for an upcoming storm to make sure everything is secured. In short: never a dull moment.”</p>
<h2>2. Creativity and technology come together</h2>
<p>Within Hacon, and especially at HCM, everything revolves around smart solutions. Jan, who started as a container mechanic and has been an account manager at Hacon Container Modifications for three years now, explains that there is hardly ever any standard work. That’s exactly what makes it interesting: “you are constantly improving, innovating, and developing custom solutions that are both practical and high-quality.”</p>
<p>This combination of creativity and technical expertise means you’re not just executing tasks, but truly contributing to the final product.</p>

<h2>3. Close-knit teams with short lines of communication</h2>
<p>At Hacon, you work in compact teams where communication lines are short and collaboration is key. Colleagues work closely together, switch quickly, and genuinely work as a team towards the best result.</p>
<p>Jan emphasizes how valuable it is to have direct contact with both office colleagues and mechanics. Stef, Depot Coordinator, sees the same at the depot, where the strong teamwork ensures smooth processes and a positive atmosphere.</p>
<p>The mindset is clear: roll up your sleeves and get the job done—together.</p>
<h2>4. Plenty of room for personal development</h2>
<p>At Hacon, you get the opportunity to grow, regardless of your experience. You learn a lot on the job and quickly take on responsibility.</p>
<p>Job mentions that he is regularly encouraged to take initiative, for example by visiting customers or attending trade shows. “Sometimes you’re thrown in at the deep end, but that’s exactly how you develop quickly.” Stef also points out that if you take responsibility, you gain trust and opportunities to grow.</p>
<h2>5. You become part of the Hacon family</h2>
<p>Hacon is a growing company with a strong, down-to-earth culture. Many colleagues have been working here for years, which creates a close-knit team spirit.</p>
<p>As Stef puts it: “you don’t just become part of a team, you become part of the Hacon family.” You can see this involvement on the work floor: colleagues support each other, are there when needed, and go the extra mile for the customer.</p>
<p>Sarah adds: “Containerland, as I like to call it, is a surprisingly fun world to work in. In addition to the contact with colleagues, the collaboration with industry peers and transport partners also creates many enjoyable and informal moments throughout the day.”</p>
<h2>Ready for your next step?</h2>
<p>Whether you are interested in a role as an <a href="https://www.hacon.nl/vacancies/hr-medewerker">HR employee</a>, <a href="https://www.hacon.nl/vacancies/verkoop-verhuur">commercial employee</a>, or another position: at Hacon Containers you get the opportunity to truly make an impact. Are you someone who likes to think along, take responsibility, and thrives in a no-nonsense work environment? Then you’ll fit right in.</p>

<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>

thumbnail_53c328eb2d4c_20ft_used_a.JPG

53c328eb2d4c_20ft_used_a.JPG

<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>
<p class="p1"> </p>

740d5be6d9b9_40ft.jpg

<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>
<p><em>Review: Super fast service - Andre Goorhuis</em></p>
<h2>You can buy rejected containers or have them refurbished at Hacon Containers!</h2>
<p class="p2">Since 1981, Hacon Containers has been active in the sale, rental, modification, and refurbishment of containers, including rejected containers. Thanks to our team of more than 45 specialists at Hacon Containers and Hacon Container Modifications, we can fully repair rejected containers and adapt them to your requirements.</p>

<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>

<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>

<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>5 ideas for an open side container you haven't thought of yet</h2>

<p>3. Gym<br>Is it time for some more exercise? An open-sided container is perfect as a mobile gym.

<p><br>5. Creative workspace<br>The beauty of the open side container is its endless possibilities. Perfect for finding inspiration and bringing out your creativity.

<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>
