Billie Box & Chemical Storage 4 Farmers were showing at Cereals 2018

Billie Box offers new or used 10ft or 20ft secure chemical and pesticide stores for sale.  

From their headquarters in Suffolk they also offer new and used 20ft and 40ft secure shipping containers for sale or hire. Additionally they supply new 20ft secure portable offices for sale, with delivery around the UK.

Billie Box exhibited their Chemical Stores at Cereals 2016 and 2017 and enjoyed a great deal of interest from attendees. So deciding to exhibit at Cereals 2018 was an easy decision to make, as Jane Billing of Billie Box explains,

“The last 2 years at Cereals has been really good. We met many farmers and associates within the Agricultural industry, many of whom were new to us, but it was also good to catch up with long term customers. This year at the Cereals exhibition there was a particularly high level of interest in our Chemical Storage Containers. This year, more so than in previous years, visitors to our stand were interested in discussing the other uses our shipping containers can be put to. Cereals has always been a special event for Billie Box, and we would like to thank everyone who visited our stand. We are especially grateful for all the welcome comments, enquiries, chats and orders we received at the show.”

Billie Box doesn’t get out of the office much and when they do it is always good to meet their existing clients as well as new ones. Billie Box have been next door to the BASIS stand for the last 3 years, an organisation who share common ground with Billie Box. BASIS are committed to ensuring chemical or pesticide stores meet with the strict HSE requirements.

Billie Box are proud to have strengthened their relationship with South Staffordshire water, who are keen to encourage farmers in the Blithe Catchment area to keep the water courses free from chemicals. South Staffordshire water will be offering a funding scheme in October 2018 for many products, including Pesticide or Chemical stores. 

Billie Box will be exhibiting at LAMMA19 on 8th & 9th January 2019. If you have any questions about Chemical Storage containers, mobile offices, storage units (or any other aspect of shipping container usage) please visit their stand. Jane and Matt will be delighted to help you explore using shipping containers to not only solve chemical storage issues on your farm, but also how shipping containers can be used to boost farm profits.

Cereals is not the only event where Billie Box have benefited from a strong presence. LAMMA18 and Agri-Expo18 (despite the bad weather) were equally beneficial for Billie Box. Any opportunity to find out more about the needs and challenges facing British Farmers is beneficial.

Jane Billing, Managing Director of Billie Box, explains, “We know that the Farmers of the UK are under extreme pressure to get their Chemical and Pesticide stores up to the required specification. Matt and I really appreciate all the visitors taking time out to view our products.”

Cereals 2017

In 2017 we are investing further in meeting the needs of the agricultural community.  As a result we are proud to announce that we will be exhibiting at the Cereals 2017 arable farming event in Lincolnshire in June.

The annual Cereals event is one of the biggest in the agricultural calendar, with over 24,000 attendees. Roughly half of the people who attend Cereals are farm owners and managers. Exhibiting at the event gives us a valuable opportunity to meet farmers, and gain a better understanding of how we can serve this vital sector.

Our time at Cereals 2016 was a great success. We were able to build on our knowledge of the issues that matter most to arable farmers. As we have mentioned in previous posts, one of the biggest issues facing today’s farmers is the need to store chemicals safely. In answer to this problem we will be exhibiting one of our popular secure chemical stores at Cereals 2017.

Our chemical stores are converted shipping containers and match the specification dictated by the Health and Safety executive. Farmers are increasingly under pressure, not just from government departments, but are also being challenged to change the way they store and handle chemicals by the companies they supply. For example, the Tesco ‘Natures Choice’ scheme imposes very specific guidelines for farmers. Our chemical stores are a cost effective, long term solution to the increasing problem of safe and secure chemical storage.

In addition to our chemical stores we also offer new containers for farmers who are interested in diversifying their business by offering self storage.

Consequently we are very much looking forward to meeting with existing customers and meeting some new people at Cereals 2017. If you would like to arrange a meeting during Cereals 2017 or would like to discuss how we can help you now please get in touch by calling us on 0800 121 7388 or emailing us.
