    There are much better insulation materials, especially for extreme conditions, than plasterboard.

    Just Google 'insulating shipping container homes"

    yes your right there is is more choice, perhaps some green and friendly, if researched enough you may find something available in phil itself perhaps something no one else wants , but research is the key

    actualy thinking back , i at one point worked at a farm which was converted to stables , horses ect, in the middle of one of the fields was an old steel container, i remember it was a hot summer ,sun blazing, electric fencing and equipment were kept in there, inside i remember it feeling cool and was a nice break from working in that heat, well thats how i remember it, but dont let insulation put you off the idea , i think its a great idea and you will find suitable insulation

    be a bit noisy when it rains, I would have thought unless one puts a real roof over the top.
