Special equipment containers are mainly used for loading special cargo steel containers. Common open-top containers, side-opening containers, tank containers, flat rack containers, platform containers, reefer containers, bulk cargo containers, etc.
The open-top container is without a rigid box top and is equipped with foldable top beam support canvas, plastic cloth, or plastic-coated cloth made of containers. Open-top containers, in addition to the top of the other components and standard containers, are similar.
It will cover the top with a tarp during shipment to ensure watertight requirements. Open-top containers can be loaded from the top, especially for loading glass plates, steel products, plywood, machinery and equipment, and other ultra-high cargo.
Side-opening containers and wing spread containers are variations from standard sea containers. The standard sea container usually comes with only one pair of rear doors. When some sellers need to transport large, bulky goods, only the standard rear door of the container can not meet the loading and unloading of oversized goods. Therefore, it will open the door on the long side of the box or make the side into a wing spread so that the opening angle will be bigger, making it easy to meet the super long or super high cargo loading and unloading needs.
The tank container is specialized for shipping all kinds of liquid cargo containers, such as liquid chemicals, liquid food, petroleum products, alcohol cargo, etc. The tank container is mainly based on the fluid tank and cabinet frame, which are two parts of the components. A liquid tank is usually sealed and made of stainless steel or aluminum to ensure the quality and safety of the cargo. The cabinet frame can be the same as other containers for transporting goods to provide sufficient strength and stability.
A reefer container is a special container for transporting frozen or low-temperature goods. It has excellent thermal insulation properties, can maintain a specific low-temperature environment, and is suitable for all kinds of perishable food, medicine, and specific chemical transportation and storage.
The basic types of reefer containers include insulated containers, external reefer containers, internal reefer containers, liquid nitrogen and dry ice reefer containers, and frozen plate reefer containers.
Flat rack container is a no-box top and sides of the container. It is characterized by loading and unloading from the side of the container, usually overweight goods as the main object of transport, but also to facilitate the loading of livestock, such as steel and so on, which can be exempted from the outer packaging of the bare goods. It can also facilitate the lifting of large, ultra-wide, ultra-high cargo.
The platform container usually transports goods that can not be loaded into ordinary containers, such as large machinery and equipment, heavy components, and other special containers. This container does not have a fixed wall and ceiling, only two side panels and the bottom to facilitate the loading and unloading of goods. The flatbed container can be further divided into folding flatbed containers, detachable flatbed containers, and other different types to adapt to different goods and transportation requirements.
