About CARU Containers
CARU Containers GmbH, based in Sindelfingen, specializes in the manufacturing and distribution of technical steel containers. The portfolio ranges from basic technical containers such as modified shipping containers to individual technical and special containers (fire protection, safety, and custom construction containers) and custom serial production. As a certified specialist in steel construction, the company offers its own design and engineering services from start to finish – from planning to installation. Containers are used, among other things, as technical centers, plant, electrical, and energy containers, offshore containers, and enclosures for technology in plant and machine engineering. Modifications include VDE electrical installation, thermal and sound insulation, fire protection cladding, coating, climate control, crane tracks, and modular construction with coupling and stacking. Certification of special containers according to CSC and DNV 2.7-1 is also part of the service spectrum. In addition to Sindelfingen, the company has locations in ten countries worldwide.
