They're designed to be wind and watertight, protecting the cargo within from the elements as they traverse rough waters and harsh weather. They're also extremely adaptable, flexible and versatile in their application. In fact they can be transformed to offices, cabins or even homes at a fraction of the price you'd spend to build similar structures from scratch.
