There appears to be four objects named Containertech in that area of the map. In most cases there should only be one.

the whole area near those trails is containertech, but they also use half of another building near the crossroad at https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=18/59.59247/11.13129

There is currently a node (n7816587720) named Containertech surrounded by a building (w401247612) named Containertech and a surrounding area (w747868640) named Containertech. I would ordinarily recommend that the node be deleted as it contains no more information than the area, but it appears that there is a desire in the Norwegian community to keep address nodes for synchronisation with official databases, so I would only remove the Containertech tags from it in this instance. The name tag on the building is probably redundant unless it is also the building name in which case it should probably be migrated to addr:housename.

The building down the road could be tagged separately.

thank you, I have just resolved this. I thought it was bit too messy, before, but now it's fixed.

OSM tagging conventions for businesses primarily selling to other businesses aren't nearly as mature as those that sell to the general public.

Factories are normally tagged as man_made=works and/or industrial=factory. I don't think there is anything more specific for this particular use case. You could add a short sentence about what they make to a description tag.

This seems more like craft=* than man_made=works (that would skip the question of product=*) .

It shows up on the map OK but you could add the tag in advanced mode of website=https://www.containertech.no/ This is how it looks on the map https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/59.59477/11.12844

The website is on n7055909974. There are a few duplicates that need rationalising.

Thanks InsertUser I looked at area and building polygons so didn't see that data. Would the website information show in a mapping app when added to a node.
