The Signature 40ft Container Café

The Signature 40ft Container Café

A 40ft Shipping Container Cafe like no other!

Another example of a 40ft shipping container cafe, beautifully designed and constructed to turn heads. The front facade has been designed to extend past the container envelope to create depth visually by softening the front steel profile with natural timber panelling, but it also serves a functional purpose by housing services and structure. The off-form geometry of the walls contrasts the linear geometry of the shipping container, and it has created a neat eave overhang for that extra little bit of protection from the elements! The eave also holds the automatic cassette awning which folds out for additional shading.

On the other end of the 40ft Shipping Container Cafe is a servery window with an automatic roller shutter plus a removable exterior timber counter. Entering through the 4.8m bi-fold doors, you will find the entire inside of the container is lined with insulated panelling to cut down the external heat. There is also a 7kw external air conditioner to cool the unit down to a comfortable temperature on hot days.

Other features inside the container cafe include stainless steel benches and sinks, continuous hot water system, 4 door bench fridge, wall mounted cabinets, electric cooker and rangehood and tiled composite panelling for the splashback. You will also find 100mm coved edge industrial vinyl flooring, compliant to the National Food Standards Code for food preparation areas.

40ft Shipping Container Cafe

The Ubuntu Signature 40ft Container Café combines the robust structure of a High Cube Shipping Container with a distinctive architectural facade and a fully equipped commercial café interior.

The extended front facade creates additional visual depth while the natural timber panelling softens the steel container profile. The eave provides additional protection from the elements while incorporating the motorised cassette awning for additional shading.

At the opposite end, the electric roller shutter provides a secure servery opening, complemented by the removable exterior timber counter. The large 4.8m bi-folding door creates a wide opening for serving customers and opening the café to its surroundings.

Inside, the fully insulated 50mm EPS panelling helps reduce external heat, while the 7kw Hitachi split system air conditioner provides additional climate control.

The combination of stainless steel preparation areas, sinks, refrigeration, cooking equipment, dishwasher, continuous hot water, storage cabinets and electrical fitout provides a practical commercial café environment.
