Experts in Custom Crating Solutions

Sea-Can Containers Ltd offers a range of specialized shipping and packaging solutions designed to meet the unique challenges of various industries.

With a focus on durability, sustainability, and practicality, Sea-Can ensures that your materials are protected and easy to manage, no matter where your business takes you. 

Arctic and Antarctic Shipping

For companies operating in the Arctic, efficient shipping is crucial. The Sea-Can is designed to be collapsible, reducing empty shipping volume and making it easy to disassemble for repurposing components. Constructed mainly of wood, these containers are also recyclable, providing an environmentally friendly option. For added protection during transport, we also offer pipe bunks to securely hold and organize pipes.

Drilling Mud and Chemical Packaging

At Sea-Can Containers, we offer packaging solutions for chemical and drilling fluids, including containers for various formats like bags, bulk totes, pails, and barrels. Our Sea-Cans are available with OR-RPE-25 liners to minimize loss from torn barges and weather conditions. They are perfect for marine transport, extensively used in Arctic environments, and can be stacked to save storage space, making them excellent for long-term storage.

Level Access Loading and Unloading

For situations where level access to equipment or cargo is necessary, Sea-Can Containers provide a sturdy platform for easy loading and unloading. The sides and lid are designed to be easily removable without damaging the cargo, ensuring safe and efficient access.

Oil and Gas Drilling

Drilling chemicals require proper packaging and protection, especially in harsh environments. The 4 ft. Sea-Can is ideal for packaging and transporting drilling chemicals by truck or barge. These weather-resistant containers can be stacked three high, saving yard space, and keeping chemicals dry in Arctic conditions for years.

Remote Location Crating

For products like agroforestry crops and geological samples that need crating in remote locations, the Sea-Can can be assembled on-site using ratchet straps instead of steel banding. This reduces transportation costs for empty containers and provides a sturdy, reusable solution. Made from biodegradable, replaceable parts, Sea-Cans are more energy-efficient to manufacture compared to steel and plastic containers.
