SCF and The Environment

With Environmental Management Plans (EMP) well underway for each depot, SCF has developed and implemented HSE Policy and systems to abide by legislative and industry standards.

With over 25 years experience in the container industry SCF has vast experience in surface preservation and application of shipping containers. SCF containers are manufactured by our partners in China and a standard raw material Corten A steel is used. Corten A steel controls the rate at which oxygen in the atmosphere reacts with the surface of the metal making it more durable and rust resistant and therefore extending the lifespan of the container.

It is also SCF standard practise to protect, and enhance, the surface with a suitable paint. Tnemec coating is used for coating the internals of Bulk Liquid Storage Tanks that hold highly corrosive chemicals. This high performance coating minimises the damage caused to the container structure by providing long lasting protection against corrosion and chemical use.

All SCF sites recycle whenever possible and always consider the environment when purchasing products.
