What started in a dirt lot—with nothing but a vision, a few tools, and a work ethic forged in service—has grown into a full-scale container fabrication operation. We’ve recently completed construction on our first dedicated shop in Commerce City, Colorado, a major milestone that reflects how far we've come and how serious we are about delivering high-quality, purpose-built container solutions.
At Core-X, we’re proud of our roots. We know what it means to start from scratch, to work hard for what matters, and to build with purpose. Our mission is simple: craft rugged, reliable, and custom containers that stand the test of time—just like the team behind them.
