Challenge

Fortescue engaged our projects team to design and supply a 20ft container solution, purpose-built to safely and efficiently transport critical service materials to and from site during shutdowns.

DELIVERED SOLUTION

Daywalk delivered two custom-engineered 20ft containers, designed for optimal safety and efficiency. Each unit features a pin-locking system for secure stacking and extendable stabiliser bars to maintain stability during transport and within the containers. Fully certified and compliant with HVNL and Schedule 7, these containers were tailored to precise dimensions and handling requirements.

Measurable shutdown efficiency benefits include:

  • No ratchet-strapping requirements for restraint to the container.
  • Rapid container loading and unloading via stacking pins and stabiliser bars.
  • Faster deployment with zero onsite modification.
  • Easy drop-in loading of components using engineered restraint frames.
  • Quick side-access forklift retrieval, removing layer-by-layer unpacking time.

TESTIMONIAL

“We recently inspected the containers developed in collaboration with the DAYWALK team, and we are extremely impressed with the outcome.

The containers have exceeded our expectations in both design and functionality. The stacking design and pin locking system provide exceptional stability, and the extendable stabiliser bars ensure secure transport within the container.

These features demonstrate outstanding attention to detail and innovation. Thank you to the DAYWALK team for your expertise and support in designing and building these containers/skids for us – it is greatly appreciated.”
