Bespoke Container Handling Solutions

Every container handling challenge is different. While many projects can be supported using our standard range of equipment, some applications require something more specialised.

At ROC, we design and manufacture bespoke container handling equipment for customers throughout the UK and worldwide. Whether you need a modified version of one of our existing products or a completely new solution, our engineering team works closely with you to develop equipment that improves safety, efficiency and operational performance.

From military shelters and field hospitals to battery energy storage systems (BESS), modular buildings and industrial containers, we manufacture custom solutions that are built around your application—not the other way around.

Designed Around Your Application

No two container handling applications are exactly the same.

Different industries, operating environments, container weights and transport methods all introduce unique engineering challenges. Rather than expecting customers to adapt their operations around standard equipment, we believe the equipment should be designed around the application.

Our engineers take the time to understand how your containers are moved, lifted, positioned and deployed before recommending the most suitable solution.

Whether your project requires higher capacities, different fixing arrangements, reduced operating heights, specialist finishes or completely new concepts, ROC has the capability to manufacture equipment that meets your exact requirements.

UK Manufactured Engineering

Every bespoke solution is designed and manufactured in the UK.

Keeping design and manufacturing together allows us to work quickly, maintain high quality standards and remain flexible throughout the project.

Unlike many suppliers who simply distribute imported products, ROC has direct control over manufacturing, allowing changes to be made throughout development when required.

Bespoke Shipping Container Castors

Shipping container castors are one of our most frequently customised products.

Our standard castor systems are already used across manufacturing facilities, defence programmes and industrial sites, but many customers require modifications to suit their operational environment.

We regularly manufacture bespoke castor systems for unique applications including heavier loads, different wheel materials, specialist braking systems and custom fixing arrangements.
Typical Customisations
Increased load capacities
Alternative wheel materials
Heavy-duty brake systems
Directional locking mechanisms
Towing compatibility
Reduced overall height
Corrosion-resistant finishes
Military paint specifications
Custom colours
Bespoke mounting systems

Bespoke Container Lifting Systems

Our container lifting systems can also be tailored to suit specialist applications.

Whether lifting unusual containerised equipment, accommodating restricted working areas or integrating with existing site operations, our engineering team can adapt our lifting systems to suit your requirements.

From changes in lifting height through to bespoke lifting interfaces and additional safety features, we work with customers to ensure every system is suitable for the intended application.
Example modifications
Higher Lift Heights
Custom Lifting Interfaces
Alternative Power Options
Special Safety Features

Bespoke Container Levelling Supports

Not every container is deployed onto a perfectly level surface.

ROC manufactures bespoke container levelling systems designed around your required adjustment range, loading conditions and operational environment.

Whether supporting containerised switchgear, modular buildings or deployable military shelters, we can develop levelling systems that provide safe and reliable support exactly where it is needed.
