Introducing the Sun Villa: A New Benchmark in Luxury Living

Innovation is at the core of everything we do at Smart Box Industries. Our latest venture, the L36, is a testament to our commitment to redefining modular construction.

For years, the industry grappled with the height limitations of traditional shipping containers. Many felt that the conventional 2.5-meter height restricted creativity and practicality in design. Recognizing this challenge, our team set out to revolutionize container architecture. The result? The L36—our groundbreaking solution that elevates the standards of versatility, functionality, and space.

The L36 is not just another container; it's a remarkable blend of enhanced vertical space and practical luxury. Standing tall at 3.6 meters, the L36 breaks free from the traditional constraints, offering a world of new possibilities. Whether you're envisioning innovative housing solutions or imaginative commercial spaces, the L36 provides the height and space to bring your ideas to life.

Our attention to detail sets the L36 apart. Constructed with high-quality corten steel, this model ensures durability and longevity. The increased height not only enhances the visual appeal but also creates a more open and inviting environment. Each unit is thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and usability, regardless of the location or application.

Practicality remains a cornerstone of the L36's design. Its stackable nature, combined with the added height, allows for creative configurations and efficient space utilization. This makes it an ideal solution for diverse needs, from multi-story residential units to expansive commercial establishments.

Sustainability is deeply embedded in our design ethos. By repurposing used shipping containers, the L36 minimizes waste and promotes resource efficiency. It's recyclable, relocatable, and retains value even after its initial use—a true testament to our commitment to environmental stewardship.

Join us on this journey as we pioneer a new standard in modular construction. The L36 invites you to experience the seamless integration of increased vertical space and sustainability, setting the stage for a future where innovative solutions meet real-world challenges head-on.

Elevating Possibilities: The L36 by Smart Box Industries

Innovation is at the core of everything we do at Smart Box Industries. Our latest venture, the X36 Accommodation Series, is a testament to our commitment to redefining off-site living.

The X36's inception stemmed from a challenge familiar to many in the industry: the limitations of traditional portacabins. We identified the need for a solution that addressed these shortcomings and elevated the standards of durability, sustainability, and comfort.

The X36 is not just another modular structure; it's a unique blend of functionality and practical luxury. Crafted with a corten steel structure derived from shipping containers, the X36 provides the familiar 3.6m width and a 12m length, resulting in a generous 43.2 sqm space for each module. The X36 stands out for its multiple handling and transportation capabilities and a projected lifespan of over 15 years, ensuring longevity and reliability for our clients.

![Project_X36_Accpmodation_series_interior_Image_6.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfgowhgmh/image/upload/v1715231003/image_14_tgobeb.png)

The X36's meticulous attention to detail sets it apart, particularly evident in its high-quality interior finish. We have thoughtfully designed each unit to ensure that it provides occupants with a comfortable and inviting living space, regardless of the location or application.

Practicality is a key feature of the X36. Its stackable design eliminates the need for additional support frames, making it a space-efficient solution for various needs, from temporary accommodations to remote workforce housing and hospitality projects.

What truly sets the X36 apart is its unwavering sustainability ethos. By repurposing shipping containers, we not only minimize waste but also create a product that is recyclable, relocatable, and retains value even after its initial use—a testament to our dedication to environmental stewardship.

Join us on this journey as we pioneer a new standard of off-site living. The X36 invites you to experience the seamless integration of luxury and sustainability, setting the stage for a future where innovative solutions meet real-world challenges head-on.

###### Last Exit Mad MaX

Good food is not hard to find in Dubai. From the subtle flavours of Emirati dishes and the rich traditions of Middle Eastern cuisine, to the varied flavours brought to the city by its expatriates, the city has a glorious culinary culture. Yet even in the city’s vibrant culinary scene, there are standouts: brands that offer experiences that go beyond just great food. And this is where SmartBox, with our unique expertise in container conversion, steps in: to provide backdrops that are on par with the quality and variety of food served.

Creating the right setting for Meraas’ Last Exit franchise, for instance, was all about unleashing our imagination. The food trucks that we built merged a carnival themed dining experience with the convenience of a drive through! Initially launched at E11 Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Qudra and Al Khawaneej, these trucks come with fully functional kitchens. Meraas’ exacting aesthetic and functional standards made it a challenging yet thoroughly fulfilling experience!

While both those projects look and feel like sets from a Hollywood production, Last Exit Mad Max takes the production value a few notches higher. Inspired by George Miller’s post-apocalyptic cinematic universe, entering Mad Max is like entering another planet. Blurring the lines between restaurant, theme park and fine dining, the desert landscape is littered with war rigs and monster trucks, some of them overrun with sand and sparse desert vegetation. [link to Youtube video] Or better still, experience it live at the foodpark. Whether you crave Indian street food or American fries and hamburgers, you won’t be disappointed.

What is striking about this particular Last Exit is that the builders have not simply taken on the aesthetic of the Mad Max universe, they understand and act by its message: the earth is precious and we must care for it. Using cargotecture to build their food trucks illustrates this ethos as upcycling shipping containers to create habitable spaces is eco-friendly at multiple levels!

Last Exit Mad Max

In the ever-evolving world of urban agriculture, Smart Box Industries LLC is at the forefront of innovation, transforming the farming landscape with a groundbreaking approach—underground hydroponic farming with shipping containers. Our vision is to revolutionise agricultural land usage, enhance urban spaces, and provide fresh produce to city dwellers while preserving green areas for public enjoyment.

## The Future of Urban Farming
Traditional farming methods require vast expanses of land, which are becoming increasingly scarce in urban areas. Hydroponic farming in shipping containers has already demonstrated remarkable success by allowing vertical stacking, thus optimising space. However, this method still occupies valuable land that could serve as parks, playgrounds, or recreational areas. This is where Smart Box Industries LLC steps in with a game-changing solution.
![Underground_farming.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfgowhgmh/image/upload/v1717135879/9_wycga3.jpg)

## Underground Hydroponic Farming
Imagine a thriving farm beneath your favourite city park, producing fresh, high-quality produce daily. Our innovative approach involves burying multiple shipping containers underground, creating a large-scale hydroponic farm that operates beneath the urban landscape. This conserves above-ground space for public use and brings the farm closer to urban consumers, reducing logistics and storage costs and ultimately lowering the farm-to-table cost.

## Benefits of Underground Container Farms
## 1. Space Optimisation:
Utilising underground space, we can transform unused or underutilised land into productive farming areas without sacrificing green spaces. This approach ensures that cities can maintain or increase greenery while boosting food production.

## 2. Sustainability:
Underground farming offers a stable, controlled environment in the face of climate change and the unpredictability of weather patterns. Our hydroponic systems are entirely closed, pest-free, and pesticide-free, providing ideal conditions for crop growth year-round.

## 3. Freshness and Accessibility:
Proximity to urban centres means that produce can be swiftly delivered to local neighbourhoods and supermarkets, ensuring fresher, higher-quality products for consumers. This local production model supports the community by providing access to nutritious food and reducing carbon emissions associated with long-distance transportation.

Underground Farming: Revolutionizing Urban Agriculture with Hydroponic Shipping Containers Farms


###### Emaar Cafe Downtown

Given Dubai’s rising mercury, it’s perfectly understandable that residents are reluctant to step out much. But, if you do plan on taking a quick nighttime stroll down the Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard in Downtown Dubai for a cuppa, you can check out some really cool joints a stunning two-storey that grabs your attention at the first sight. Made of upcycled shipping containers, this cafe unit by **Emaar Properties** stands tall and proud for its avant garde design and architecture.

If fine dining is about the experience, then dining at this cafe can be counted as among the finest. Good taste, after all, isn’t just about food!

Think of this: eight containers that have braved the seas for a good number of years, and in their lifetime, been to shores that few diners have. In them sleep narratives that, if they were to be told, would hold the audience spellbound. And the end of their seaworthiness still did not mean the end of their inherent strength, safety or longevity.  They remain just as unbreakable on land as they were at sea. Only, now they have transformed into a cozy cafeteria that welcomes people as much with great looks as with delectable food.

Ah, the satisfaction of a job well done!

At SmartBox, our work is truly our passion. And what we build using mega-sized 20 and 40 feet CorTen steel building blocks are dreams – strong, sustainable, environmentally friendly live-work-play spaces that start in the creative mind and end up as very practical, immensely usable, works of art.  What’s more? The speed and resource efficiency of our container-based construction are unparalleled.

Take this cafe project we did for Emaar Properties LLC, for instance, which is indeed a perfect example of what cargotecture is all about. 30 days, 8 units of 40’ used containers and some committed team work at our factory – and voila! You have a striking-looking two storey building serving excellent coffee (among other things) to discerning guests! A month from the drawing board to installation – can you believe it?

Cargotecture is not just about speed, though. It is without doubt among the most versatile forms of modular construction available in the world today. These super-sized building blocks can be used to construct anything from a kiosk to multi-level hotel apartments, regardless of the aesthetics involved.  From lean, unadorned looks to elaborate decorative structures – there is no limit to what can be achieved through container conversion. And no matter what style you go for, the strength, durability and sustainability remains unaltered.

Container pop ups being set up on location.

2020 is well underway and there is a buzz in the air. As we look forward to another year of excitement and productivity, this is also a good time to look back on the happenings of the year that’s past.

At SmartBox, one of the major highlights of 2019 was the sprawling, stunning, pop-up that we had built for Saudi Arabia’s Diriyah Season. Running from November 22 – December 21, 2019, the Diriyah Season was a fantastic series of international sports, entertainment and cultural events that happened at Diriyah, a UNESCO heritage sight and the birth place of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

SmartBox had the opportunity to build a young, vibrant and extremely versatile space out of 70 units of 40ft high cube and 20ft standard containers for the event people behind the month-long Diriyah Season. It was a matter of pride and pleasure for SmartBox that we were a part of an event that brought together sports fanatics, entertainment seekers, foodies and shoppers from across the world. Our containers stood tall and strong, welcoming the multitudes that dropped in to witness the various events including excitements such as Formula E, The Ad’Diriyah Equestrian Festival and ‘Clash on the Dunes’, the first world heavyweight boxing title fight in the Kingdom.

The Diriyah Season was a truly exciting project for us!

Cargotecture remains an unparalleled construction option for pop-up spaces due to their inherent strength, prefabricated body and versatility. Made of Cor-ten steel, one of the toughest materials used in infrastructure construction, they are strong and stable enough to withstand the high number of footfalls that happen during an event such as Diriyah Season. Their unibody structure makes it easy to arrange them in any shape with their strength intact. They can be adapted to suit any design aesthetic, whether contemporary or heritage.

Another great advantage that cargotecture offers is that spaces can be set up and dismantled with ease, and without much impact to the land on which they stand. This means that once the event is over, the structure can be easily disassembled and either put away, or transported to a different location.

Little wonder then that an increasing number of event management companies now approach us for Smart solutions. If you wish to know more about our work, please get in touch with our team.

###### PUMA Pavillion X Soled DB Event

SoleDXB is something we eagerly look forward to every year. Because it just keeps getting better and better with each edition. This iconic music, streetwear and art event, which has finished its 10th run, continues to enthral the youth population of the region to an extent where it has become a cultural touchstone.

As always, PUMA was one of the key players, hosting some of the most exciting performances and displays in its flagship multifunctional, multi-storey space at the arena. Hundreds of people enjoyed stunning musical performances by Dev Hynes and  Masego,  or watched the unveiling of Selena Gomez’s new Strong Girl collection inside this fantastic space.

It took us 7 used shipping containers and less than 3 weeks to built it – the required cafe and performance space on the ground floor and the retail arena above. We refurbished used containers and assembled them into a brand new modular structure that was just right for the design and aesthetic needs of a popular lifestyle brand and its primarily young, energetic customer base. But then, that’s the beauty of cargotecture – it allows us the freedom to create interesting spaces out of sustainable, recycled materials in the most resource-efficient way!

It was wonderful to see the response to the pictures of the festival online – the PUMA SoleDXB unit we lovingly built was certainly well used! And as designers and builders, nothing pleases us more than to see people engaging and interacting with the spaces we create.
