Boxman Studios’ claims, If you are looking for a versatile, sustainable, and virtually indestructible solution then shipping container architecture can provide a solution for small urban corridors and projects that require fast-track construction.  Shipping container architecture can turn any concept into a reality.

It can help build a  permanent, semi-permanent or mobile solution for pop-up retail, office space, restaurants, sports venues, or any other structure within the Built Environment, says Boxman Studios’ .

Appearance:

Boxman Studios’ product is versatile and flexible, and can be designed to have the appearance of a modular unit, traditional stick build construction, or a combination of both. De-commissioned (used) shipping containers can be modified and structurally reinforced, or purpose built structures (building units ourselves and to specific specifications) can be constructed.

Construction Time and Duration:

Through the utilization of Boxman Studios’ product, speed to being fully operational on site can be truncated by 30%-50% compared to traditional stick built construction.

With the utilization of Boxman’s modular construction process, units can be built to building codes and with the same (if not better) quality.  If any design changes occur to the units, Boxman’s in-house engineering and design team can make the requisite changes immediately without down-time in construction.

Quality:

Through the use of Six Sigma, lean manufacturing processes, and a quality control and assurance program, Boxman Studios has measures in place to ensure a quality product is produced.

Versatility and Mobility:

The methodology and build process takes into account quality, cost and savings, logistics, and versatility.  Rather than having to build a new traditional stick built building, units can be moved from one site to another, which saves money, labor, time, and materials.
