shipping used containers

Product Details:

Dry containers are a type of standard shipping or cargo container that accommodates dry, non-temperature-sensitive shipments. They are typically available in 40′ size, although there are 20′ options available. The containers consist of strong steel to resist wind, rain and saltwater.


Description

Standard containers are also known as general purpose containers

They are closed containers, i.e. they are closed on all sides. A distinction may be drawn between the following types of standard container:

• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s
• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors over the entire length of one or both sides
• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors on one or both sides

In addition, the various types of standard container also differ in dimensions and weight, resulting in a wide range of standard containers.

Standard containers are mainly used as 20' and 40' containers. Containers with smaller dimensions are very seldom used. Indeed, the trend is towards even longer dimensions, e.g. 45'.

Product Details:

The refrigeration unit is arranged in such a way that the external dimensions of the container meet ISO standards and thus fit into the container ship cell guides, for example. The presence of an integral refrigeration unit entails a loss of internal volume and payload.

When being transported by ship, integral units have to be connected to the on-board power supply system. The number of refrigerated containers which may be connected depends on the capacity of the ship\'s power supply system. If the aforesaid capacity is too low for the refrigerated containers to be transported, "power packs" may be used, which are equipped with relatively large diesel generators and satisfy ISO requirements with regard to the dimensions of a 20\' container. When at the terminal, the containers are connected to the terminal\'s power supply system. For transport by road and rail, most integral unit refrigeration units are operated by a generator set (genset). This may either be a component of the refrigeration unit or connected to the refrigeration unit.


Air flows through the container from bottom to top. In general, the "warm" air is drawn off from the inside of the container, cooled in the refrigeration unit and then blown back in the container as cold air.


To ensure adequate circulation of the cold air, the floor is provided with gratings. Pallets form an additional space between container floor and cargo, so also forming a satisfactory air flow channel. In addition, the side walls of the container are "corrugated", which ensures satisfactory air flow there too.


In the upper area of the container, adequate space (at least 12 cm) must likewise be provided for air flow. For this purpose, during packing of the container adequate free space must be left above the cargo. The maximum load height is marked on the side walls.


To ensure vertical air flow from bottom to top, packaging must also be appropriately designed and the cargo must be sensibly stowed.


In addition to temperature regulation, integral units also allow a controlled fresh air exchange, for example for the removal of metabolic products such as CO2 and ethylene in the case of the transport of fruits.


In the refrigeration units, both the supply and return air temperatures are measured and, depending on the operating mode, one of these values is used to control the cold air. Temperature measurement may be performed in various ways. The Partlow recorder generally records return air temperature, since this provides an indication of the state or temperature of the cargo. Data loggers are increasingly used, which detect temperature digitally and indicate it on a display. Once transferred to a PC, the data may then be evaluated.


The temperature display is attached to the outside of the refrigeration unit, so that operation of the unit may be checked at any time.


Digital or analog recorders may also be positioned directly in the cargo, so as to measure temperatures inside the container. The recorder should be accommodated in such a way that it records the temperatures at risk points in the container (inside the packaging, top layer at door end).


Integral units may be stowed both above and below deck on a ship. Above deck stowage has the advantage that the heat from return air may be more readily dissipated. However, the containers are often exposed to strong solar radiation, leading to increased refrigeration capacity requirements.


Usage

Refrigerated containers are used for goods which need to be transported at a constant temperature above or below freezing point. These goods are divided into chilled goods and frozen goods, depending on the specified transport temperature. They principally include fruit, vegetables, meat and dairy products, such as butter and cheese.

Product Details:

Used shipping containers are large, standardized metal containers that are designed for transporting goods over long distances. They are typically made of steel and come in various sizes, with the most common being 20 feet or 40 feet in length. These containers are widely used in the shipping and logistics industry to transport goods via ships, trains, and trucks.
However, beyond their primary purpose in shipping, used shipping containers have gained popularity in other industries and applications. Here are a few key points about used shipping containers:
1. Versatility: Used shipping containers are highly versatile and can be repurposed for various applications. They can be transformed into storage units, temporary offices, pop-up shops, housing units, disaster relief shelters, and even art installations. Their modular design allows for easy customization and modification.
2. Availability and Cost: Due to the high volume of international trade, there is a surplus of used shipping containers in many ports around the world. This surplus has led to a relatively low cost compared to traditional building materials. Buying a used container can be an affordable option for those looking to repurpose it for different uses.
3. Structural Strength: Shipping containers are built to withstand harsh conditions during transportation, including rough seas and stacking. As a result, they offer excellent structural integrity and durability. They can be stacked on top of each other and are designed to handle heavy loads, making them suitable for various construction projects.
4. Eco-Friendly: Repurposing used shipping containers contributes to sustainable practices. By giving these containers a second life, it reduces the demand for new construction materials, thereby minimizing environmental impact. Additionally, recycling shipping containers helps reduce waste and promotes the concept of upcycling.
5. Mobility and Portability: Used shipping containers can be easily transported from one location to another using trucks or cranes. This mobility makes them suitable for temporary or mobile structures that may need to be relocated.
It's worth noting that when purchasing a used shipping container, it's essential to inspect its condition thoroughly, including checking for any structural damage, rust, or signs of wear and tear. Working with reputable sellers or suppliers is recommended to ensure the quality and suitability of the container for its intended purpose.
