Innovative Insulation for Shipping Containers That Lasts
Shipping containers are rapidly becoming a popular option for homes, offices, storage units, and modular structures due to their affordability, durability, and versatility. However, without proper insulation, these steel boxes are prone to extreme temperatures, condensation, and discomfort. At Eco Spray Insulation, we specialize in container insulation solutions designed to regulate temperature, control moisture, and improve energy efficiency in any climate.
Whether you’re building a shipping container home, a mobile office, or a workshop, our expert team can help you choose the right insulation system to make your structure livable and long-lasting.
Why Insulate a Shipping Container?
Shipping containers are made from steel, which absorbs and radiates heat and cold very efficiently. Without insulation, a container can become unbearably hot in the summer and freezing in the winter. Insulation helps:
- Maintain consistent indoor temperatures
- Reduce heating and cooling costs
- Prevent condensation and mold growth
- Create a comfortable, livable environment
- Enhance structural durability
Eco Spray Insulation offers custom solutions that meet the specific needs of container-based construction, ensuring your structure is built to last in any season.
Spray Foam: The Best Insulation for Shipping Containers
When it comes to container insulation, spray foam insulation is by far the most effective option. At Eco Spray Insulation, we recommend closed-cell spray foam for most container applications because it:
- Provides superior thermal resistance (R-value)
- Acts as a vapor and air barrier
- Adds structural strength to container walls
- Fills all gaps and cracks, even in tight spaces
- Prevents condensation and moisture problems
Unlike traditional materials like fiberglass or rockwool, spray foam adheres directly to the container’s interior, ensuring a tight seal and long-lasting performance.
Applications of Container Insulation
Eco Spray Insulation offers professional insulation services for various types of container-based structures, including:
- Shipping container homes
- Container offices and workspaces
- Portable storage units
- Refrigerated containers
- Modular classrooms and mobile facilities
- Construction site containers
Whether you’re converting a single unit or designing a multi-container structure, we have the expertise to insulate your space efficiently and effectively.
Our Container Insulation Process
At Eco Spray Insulation, we follow a proven process to deliver the best results:
1. Consultation & Assessment
We begin with an on-site evaluation or detailed consultation to understand the container’s purpose, layout, and exposure to environmental conditions.
2. Surface Preparation
We clean and prepare all interior surfaces, removing rust, debris, or oils that might affect adhesion.
3. Insulation Application
Our certified team applies closed-cell spray foam insulation, typically to walls, ceilings, and floors, ensuring a uniform thermal and moisture barrier.
4. Inspection & Finishing
Once cured, we inspect the foam layer for coverage and thickness. Upon request, we can also provide fire-rated coatings and finishing panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to insulate a shipping container?
Pricing depends on the container size, type of insulation, and the desired R-value. On average, spray foam insulation for a standard 20ft container ranges from $2,000 to $3,500.
Can I insulate the outside of the container?
Yes, external insulation is possible but less common. Interior spray foam insulation is typically more effective, space-efficient, and protected from the elements.
Is spray foam insulation safe for container homes?
Absolutely. Closed-cell spray foam is safe, durable, and meets building code requirements. We also offer fire-resistant coatings for added safety.
Does container insulation help with soundproofing?
