40' red meat slaughtering plant container interior

40’ Red Meat Plant in a Box®

The 40′ Red Meat Plant in a Box® is a fully equipped slaughtering plant designed to process pigs, sheep, and goats from start to finish. This modular 9′ x 40′ unit includes essential features like a hoist, knee-activated sink, water heater, heating/cooling system, and a 100-amp electric panel, all housed in a like-new Hi Cube container. Its R-19 insulated aluminum walls, food-grade epoxy flooring, and LED lighting ensure a clean, efficient workspace. With an 8’ max hoist, it’s ideal for small to mid-sized operations, excluding large hogs or cattle without an additional kill room. The unit also features a double 48″ man door with windows for easy access. Portable and USDA-compliant, it’s a practical solution for modern meat processing needs.

THE BOX

Shipping containers, originally manufactured in the Pacific Rim, are designed for durability and efficiency. These slaughtering plant containers, typically 40′ long and 9′ high, are used to transport export goods across the globe, stacked up to eight high on massive ocean freighters. Their corrugated metal shells provide exceptional strength, making them highly transportable, stackable, and cost-effective. For our units, we use ‘one-trippers,’ containers that are like new, ensuring quality and reliability for housing your poultry processing equipment.

Please note, site preparation, rinse water disposal, utilities hookup, and container offloading are not included in the base price/building of your container process. Prices are subject to change based on market conditions and customization needs.
