Maintaining and Servicing Intermodal Trailers
One recent project showcases a FastCover 60’ wide by 60’ long Straight Leg Series mounted on shipping containers, the building acts as a machine shed and is used for the maintenance and service of intermodal trailers. While the exterior of the building looks very much like a standard fabric building, the interior features:
- Insulation
- Heated concrete pad
- Electric heaters
- Lighting
- Shop space
- Offices
- Lunchroom
- Additional storage
This is an incredibly versatile, cost-effective alternative to a permanent structure and a fully functional facility that also has the ability to be relocated when the client’s business grows or the long term project is completed.
Expanding Applications for FastCover Buildings
FastCover buildings aren’t just for cold storage—they’ve become an integral part of operations in industries ranging from agriculture to oil and gas and beyond. Commonly used to shelter and protect valuable equipment from harsh weather, our buildings are also now being adapted for unique purposes, such as
- light manufacturing
- event venues and exhibition halls
- Indoor sports facilities
- military and disaster relief structures
- on-site safety & training
- and much more.
FastCover has the ability to adapt to your specific needs such as a fully insulated and heated maintenance facility.
More than Just Cold Storage
All FastCover steel components are fabricated and powder coated in-house to provide superior quality. All fabric is high density woven polyethylene with an ultraviolet inhibitor built into the membrane to increase longevity. FastCover is CWB (Canadian Welding Bureau) and CSA A660-10 certified through annual audits.
FastCover builds hundreds of fabric covered buildings every year. The list of applications for our buildings continues to grow, and we pride ourselves in building a quality product, installing with our own team and taking on each project with the attention to detail that our customers expect. Fabric structures are most commonly used for equipment storage purposes in commercial and industrial applications, and our structures are ideal for the storage of various equipment and products in the Agricultural, Oil & Gas and Mining sectors.
