UK and Europe based Titan Containers
has moved into the Australian market and
will offer its range of refrigerated storage
solutions, container rental, as well as new
and used containers for sale.
Under three years average age, Titan’s
refrigerated storage containers,
ArcticStores, are purpose designed and
built for storage applications.
Titan’s range includes 10ft, 20ft and 40ft
ArcticStore range of sophisticated, low
power consumption and user friendly
portable refrigerated cold storage
containers for local short or longer term
rental. Temperature range in ArcticStore
ranges from minus 40oC to plus 30oC
while the newArcticStore Ultra Freezer
will operate down to minus 60oC.
Where more space than containers offer
is required, Titan’s SuperStore models
provide a flexible solution. The Arctic
SuperStore cold room is bigger than
typical extra wide, or wide body, cold
storage solutions. Floor strength permits
motorised pallet lifter and even fork truck
operations.
Single phase refrigeration is available
in Titan’s 10ft, 20ft and 40ft ArcticStore
refrigerated containers as well as in 20ft
and 40ft Arctic SuperStore cold rooms.
Titan offers locally supplied single phase
refrigeration as an alternative where 3
phase power is not available. Titan also
offers a range of storage container types
with many in new one-trip condition or
as used second hand containers, plus a
range of DNV containers for the offshore
exploration and production sector.

Q: What new shapes/configurations
are available?
Stretch tents are available in a range of
sizes and shapes from 4.5m x 6m up to
20m x 30m. And we can custom make
tents to fit individual requirements.
New product offerings planned for the
2015/16 year are:
• Integrated flooring system for the stretch
tents for easy deployment on hard
surfaces
• Retrofit stretch tent skins for clearspan
pavilions and pagodas. Aimed at
allowing rental companies to maximise
the return on their existing stock while
offering a new attractive and innovative
style of marquee
• Clear fabric and glazed wall options
Q: What benefits do non-traditional
tent shapes offer?
Non-traditional shapes mean companies
can use the stretch tents as part of their
marketing and design, rather than creating
an event around a boxed tent. The various
shapes provide opportunity for structures
to blend into the environment, while
making it easy to adapt to unusual spaces.
Q: What are the limitations of non-
traditional tents?
It may be more difficult to gauge load
capacity on a stretch tent, and you
need poles, which are not needed in
clearspan tents. Although there are
challenges with using stretch fabrics, they
present many more opportunities than
disadvantages. We ensure the safety of all
structures, including load capacity.
Non-traditional stretch marquees take shape
Stretch Marquees & Fabric Structures’ recent blog covers
interesting facts and information about its business. Here is
a Q&A summary.
Q: Do Stretch tents require specific
types of fabric?
Every tent we produce undergoes checks
for manufacturing defects before it leaves
our factory. The fabric includes a built in
UV absorber for sun and fading protection,
plus anti-bacterial agents to increase
fabric life and inhibit stains.
Q: Can stretch tents be printed?
Yes, the tents can be custom printed. Full
digital image quality printing is available
on all our tents. We use UV dye-
sublimation process that includes CMYK
+WHITE 5 colour printing to allow digital
image printing on all base colours of our
stretch tent fabric.
Q: Do stretch tents present Building
Code issues?
We provide engineering documentation
and FR certifications for all products. We
work with customers to ensure they
comply to all relevant international and
local Building Code requirements.
