If you have been interested in shipping container homes as much as we have, you might be aware of the condensation issue? That is why we created the one-of-a-kind VenSulation system that addresses insulation, ventilation, and condensation for shipping container homes. Our VenSulation system combines two critical components: advanced insulation and cutting-edge ventilation.
Our insulation system includes: block-moulded polyurethane panels (not spray foam), underfloor polyester batts, thermally-broken window and door frames with double glazing and low-e coating.
Our ventilation system includes: Mechanical ventilation (Heat Recovery Ventilator – HRV), natural ventilation (operable window/ skylight), airtightness control and odourless toilet systems.
At Sonic Steel, we’ve set a new standard for shipping container insulation. Tackling the issues of thermal efficiency and condensation build-up head on, our priority is to address the challenges faced by many shipping container home enthusiasts.
Our comprehensive approach doesn’t just stop at insulating the metal walls, but also covers the underfloor insulation (which can contribute up to 20% thermal loss), as well as the highly efficient windows and doors, making your container home comfortable regardless of the season.

Sonic Steel’s state-of-the-art ventilation systems are designed to keep your shipping container home fresh, comfortable and free from condensation and mould.
The integration of Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) into our designs sets us apart, ensuring that fresh, filtered air continuously circulates throughout your container home, providing a healthy living environment.
Along with an efficient HRV system, we also focus on the airtightness and air quality of your shipping container home by means of vent dampers and toilet’s odour extraction unit. Learn more about our ventilation system >>>
