Drying Rooms
Indoors or outdoors, damp clothes are miserable when you're stuck in them all day
A dry workforce can contentedly and efficiently get on with the job*
A warm dry workforce can work wonders
Unfortunately, Britain is often cold AND wet
Fortunately, Britain has MAC Drying Rooms
*It's not just outdoor workers - construction, road works, railway works, telecoms, council staff, refuse workers, mineral extraction, marine, agriculture - who suffer from the rain. Anyone who arrives at the office or factory soaked to the skin will have a miserable day - and this will be reflected in their productivity and relationships with colleagues.
So what do they wear while their clothes are drying?
Good question - just one of those answered by a MAC Drying Room
A typical MAC Drying Room is a self-contained unit, though it can be linked to other MAC units, and/or integrated with any other types of building in your operation.
It provides a warm, secure area in which to rapidly dry workers' clothes. Every user has their own secure locker, in which to store fresh clothes and/or other possessions (how many of us know exactly what we've got in our pockets?)
Drying takes place while:
- Staff get on with the job in hand
- They take a break - or a meal break (options include a dining table)
- Clothing is made ready for the next shift, or next day
Like all similar MAC units, your drying room is internally lined, with all electrics, lighting and heating. Built to British Standard Codes of Practice BS CP3, BS CP11 and BS 449, it is vandal-proof and thief-proof.
Accommodation - up to you:
As a totally bespoke unit, your drying room is manufactured to your required length, width, and specification. A typical MAC Drying Room provides comfortable seating for 14 - though the actual number, like the overall dimensions, are yours to choose. Click below for some of those we offer.
Other options include:
- Separate changing area
- Separate Male & Female accommodation
- Dehumidifier(s) to further speed the drying process
Like all MAC steel buildings, your Drying Room comes with:
- Unconditional 12 months warranty on all units
- In the unlikely event of any problems, we provide on-site attendance within 24 hours
Shipping Container Drying Rooms FAQs
What is a portable drying room?
A portable drying room is a self-contained welfare unit designed to provide a warm, secure space where workers can dry wet clothing, store personal belongings, and change into dry garments. MAC drying rooms are steel-built units that can operate as standalone facilities or be linked to other welfare and site accommodation units.
How do MAC drying rooms work?
MAC drying rooms use a heated, enclosed environment to dry clothing efficiently while staff continue working, take breaks, or prepare for the next shift. Units typically include secure lockers for each user and can be configured with seating or dining areas, allowing clothing to dry safely and conveniently during the working day.
What standards are MAC drying rooms built to?
MAC drying rooms are built to British Standard Codes of Practice BS CP3, BS CP11, and BS 449. Like all MAC steel buildings, they are described as vandal-proof and thief-proof, constructed to the same standards applied across the wider MAC product range.
Can drying rooms be customised?
Yes. MAC drying rooms are fully bespoke and can be manufactured to your required length, width, and internal layout. Options include separate changing areas, male and female accommodation, seating or dining space, and additional features such as dehumidifiers to enhance drying performance.
Do drying rooms include lockers and storage?
Yes. Each user is provided with a secure locker for storing dry clothing, personal belongings, and work equipment while garments are being dried. This helps keep items organised and protected during the working day.
Can drying rooms be connected to other welfare facilities?
Yes. Drying rooms can be linked to other MAC welfare units or integrated into existing buildings and site accommodation. This allows businesses to create a complete welfare solution that meets the needs of their workforce.
What warranty and support are included?
All MAC drying rooms come with an unconditional 12-month warranty. In the event of any problems, MAC provides on-site attendance within 24 hours.
