Ethics play an important role in the way both do business, so customers and stakeholders can trust Algeco and Mobile Mini UK to do the right thing at all times.
Expansion in container solutions, which have seen strong growth in the last two years despite market conditions, will add strength to the Algeco organisation and continue to broaden and improve services to customers, who demand quality available accommodation, delivered quickly.
This acquisition further demonstrates the Algeco commitment to its strategy of building a sustainable future that is focused on its three core pillars of Environment, Social and Governance (ESG), with circularity, adaptability, and leasing at the core.
