It’s impossible to imagine sea cargo transportations without the containers.
Did you know that over 90% of cargoes are transported by marine cargo transportation? And for transportation of this huge quantity of cargoes there are a variety of containers and each of them are used for different purposes.
Containers can be 20’, 40’ and 40 HC.
Here are 9 containers and their definitions:
1.Standard containers- this is a completely closed container, protected from external elements and weather conditions.
2. Flack rack containers-This simple storage container has folding sides that can turn the container into a flat surface. It is ideal for transporting very large products, such as heavy vehicles, vehicles, and building materials.
3. Open top container-Such a container is used especially for open transportation, as the upper part can be completely removed. This is suitable for those loads that have a huge height, such as tall cars.
4.Double door container-It has doors that open on both sides, which turn the container into a "tunnel". Such a container is used especially for fast loading and unloading.
5.Cube Container- these are similar to the "general purpose usage" container, but higher.
6.Side door container-The side door container is very similar to a regular, general purpose container, the only difference is that the doors can be fully opened from the side. This feature provides a much wider area։ accessibility, which facilitates the loading and unloading of materials.
7.Reefer container- such a container is used for transporting temperature-sensitive, perishable products such as meat, fruits and vegetables.
8.Insulated container-This container is used for heat control and allows it to withstand higher temperatures. This is a thermos container. It is more suitable for transporting food, medicine, blood, biological substances and chemicals
9 Tank containers - These are made of solid steel or other anti-corrosion materials for "long-term" storage of liquid materials.
