Karmod Office and Living Containers come in different shapes and sizes. Suitable for different purposes. Knowing your container types gives you a headstart – and the best chances to make the right business decisions for you. That’s why we’re here giving you an overview of the different types of office and living containers. Different container types were standardized in 1986. Karmod regulations dictated that the 230x600cm container type and 300x700cm container type now were industry standards. Office and site container specifications can vary slightly from these figures listed below. If your needs require exact measurements, please consult your office container building Technology sales representative.
